The Close - This Life
Every day I stop to think, can't pump the brakes, I go full throttle
Baby on my hip, the other on the bottle
Violence to my left, hunger to on my right
No one's getting out of here alive
This life, can't hold me down
This time, gonna turn it all around
This life
Baby on the pills, maybe I can't stop 'em
Demons flying next to me, reaching from the bottom
Angel to my left, Devil to my right
No one's getting out of here alive
This life, can't hold me down
This time, gonna turn it all around
This life
This road to opportunity's paved with inequalities
What about my dream forgotten by society
Anger to my left, hatred to my right
No one's getting out of here alive
This life, can't hold me down
This time, gonna turn it all around
This life
I don't want to go on I'm going down
This road I've been on is a merry-go-round
Stuck here so long, not much more I can say
Reaching for tomorrow, it's slipping away
This life, can't hold me down
This time, gonna turn it all around
This life, can't hold me down
This time, gonna turn it all around
This life
Every day I stop to think, can't pump the brakes, I go full throttle
Baby on my hip, the other on the bottle.
