I'm born and I die alone
When I was trapped in hell I had to cry alone
I heard them trying to tell how to be me
But through this set of eyes only I can see
Through these traumas that I felt only imma heal
With this time on my hands only I can kill
So ion listen when they try to tell me how to live
Try to Morpheus me and slip me the pill
Yea We done been on that slave ship
That's why the mind constantly on a day trip
Trying to avoid all the real mess
That keeps us from living at our very best
So I understand why you project your fears
But I've come very far in my recent years
Do some things in my life that you won't agree
I know you Probably looking out but imma do me for real
What if they ain't really feeling you Myrts Son
Man that workload be killing you Myrts Son
You too old to be out here trying to rap
Start a business, ain't nobody go be buying that
You probably shouldn't be doing things that way
That way is certainly not the Jesus way
I comprehend everything that you tryna say
But I got to go and live it out my way
This is my life and I live it like I want too
Putting me first in this life and I'm going to
Do what I have to do
This is my life
This is my life
I hear it all the time now
People telling me how To spend my time now
I had chains on my hand how you tied down
That's one thing I can't explain for awhile now
Had nights when I was crying up in isolation
Watching people live they life out on vacation
I Seen my soul facing boarder line enslavement
You can't imagine the demons that I was facing
When the chains off we ain't know what to do
Working for the man is all we knew to pursue
That's why we Judging people who trying to get loose
Cause our minds back in time hanging on a noose
So I understand why my people stuck in the norm
But I'd be damn if that's the reason that I don't transform
Living for the thoughts of others it was leaving me torn
Just me and my meditations to weather the storm
Uh I been in them dark places
And the only thing I seen there was my faces
With the different hats I wore through my many phases
Im just building up my soul to demolish cages
So who the hell gonna tell me how to live my dreams
It was just me and I when I was blowing the steam
Me Listening to y'all it be bringing me down
I quit
This my life and I'm living it out
You should probably hang the mic up Myrts Son
Everybody is a rapper now Myrts son
You really think that you out here changing lives
We gotta get this bread bruh you just wasting time
We don't think you should do things this way
This way is certainly not the people's way
I spend all of my time trying free
So ain't nobody finna tell me how to be me
This is my life and I live it like I want too
Putting me first in this life and I'm going to
Do what I have to do
This is my life
This is my life
