7711 Video (MV)

Ooh
I almost took my own life, who can tell me shit?
And shit I'm here for heaven-sake, man look what heaven did
I need like twelve kids, cheaper by the dozen, toss 'em in the Chevy Nomad
It look kinda like a hearse
But it's just me and mine, don't want no problems
The irony in time is we don't live until we dying
The irony in dying is we can't bring what we acquired
All the time we sacrificed that went to funding our retirement
And we might die before we see it
And every night I'm asking god what he sees in me
Then I don't pay him no mind, I ain't seeing no signs
Everything I do in darkness comes to light, light

For the first time in a while I wanna be alive
But shit it ain't that simple
I called and you picked up I was on the edge, oh I was bleeding
And I'm still bleeding (no)

Ain't gonna let life get the best of me
Ain't gonna let life get the best of me
Ain't gon' let it break my heart, no no
Can't let hate become a part of me

7711, I got my angels around me
I got the devil astounded coming out the basement
I got my demons surrounded
I'm underpaid like I'm scotty
I'm more like MJ in 9th grade but I'm patient
Since I was twenty couldn't sleep alone
Rest in peace to Sean Connery a legend never die
I say it one time, when I wake up
Lay my ashes in the garden off of 46 apartment, baby

For the first time in a while I wanna be alive, but shit it ain't that simple
I called and you picked up I was on the edge, oh I was bleeding
And I'm still bleeding (no)
For the first time in a while I wanna be alive, but shit it ain't that simple
I called and you picked up I was on the edge, oh I was bleeding
And I'm still bleeding (no)

Ain't gonna let life get the best of me
Ain't gonna let life get the best of me
Ain't gon' let it break my heart, no no
Can't let hate become a part of me, no no

And as he rise he finds out he looks to his left to his right
That he's standing with his enemy (ooh)
And then he rose back towards the posture, oh
So today I want to encourage you, because he lives today
Hallelujah
If I could sing I would sing it but I'ma say the words (say the words)
Because he lives, I can raise tomorrow (he lives)
Because he lives, even the fear that I still have I know he's good come on, somebody
Because I know he holds the future
My life is worth the living
Just. Because he lives (hmm)
