Facts of Life
all eyes on me cant they see its a darn right catastrophy when we decide to take a ride
along the countryside guns in our hands no where to go except discover new land
i live for the moment too young to own it but time is my enemy so i ride like im in it
a few remain true to the game some decide to sell out my name
we did our dirt and played our cards making it so easy it was getting hard
we conspire with who we want to know straight poker faces is what we show
you look me in the eyes and tell me lies i smile in your face and cut you down to size
i have my own set of rules and laws i live by if you dont like it go ahead and ride
i keep my enemies close even thats too far for my friends id reach the highest star
people claim their real but turn their backs and squeal
do you know what it means to survive that means you cant watch "AMERICAN IDOL" live
i ran the streets ans saw so much it killed me slowely but became my crutch
this life that im now living was borrowed and given by the only person i trust
GOD
so im here today to share my story no one but HIM is my judge and jury
