This Is How I Live

I dip my pen in plasma Write my rhymes in blood Immortal soldier stopping emotions with a mental plug I put my game-face on and hit the battlefield Turning insults to motivation make my writings feel Never hypocritical I never change like reciprocals Steady swimming forward, like a shark because its critical No rest, only the strong survive Mental toughness keeps me focused and keeps my eyes dry This is how i live This is what i feel Thoughts of a warrior bred with a heart of steel Decorate my chest with a metal for fierceness Bible says I'm blessed I'll live on guiltless My heart is cold Frozen from hurtful words And attempts of spiritual homicide always in my face I shrug them off and stay moving at a steady pace
