Description
High expectations weigh heavier than spotlights, and the applause of others does not always cure the inner noise. Here are memories of loss, disappointment, and the eternal dilemma: life is hard, but giving up is even harder. The lines are sometimes harsh and frank, like a cry on the runway, where pilots and drivers are trusted more than loved ones. And yet, through the harshness, a simple truth breaks through: “It's easy to die, but harder to live.” Perhaps this is the real nerve: to be alive, no matter what, and to keep standing on your own two feet.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Everybody all got high expectations.
See me in person, wanna start conversations.
I'm beyond grateful for congratulations. Damn, good job.
I know God really did a good job. On my mental was dealing with bad thoughts. Thinking 'bout my dogs that
I lost. All of the women that walked off. Trusting too many was my flaw.
Done it all, lotta loves done got crossed. Struggles I faced and stood tall.
Get back up every time that I fall. My testimony tested my beliefs.
A lotta people want me to rest in peace. Why they ain't tell 'em that? Dying is easy, living is harder.
Your bitch is easy and she gets me harder.
I fuck like a dog and I keep me a stalker. My top five competing, they all fight for starters.
Your love like gasoline, it burn like fire.
Your love like gasoline, it burn like fire.
On the way to a show, put my trust in the pilot.
Soon as I land, put my trust in the driver. Gave twenty grand to the nigga on sight, man.
Only so long you can kill 'em with kindness. I did a show, put deposits on lawyers.
You did a show and went through it in onions.
You move similar to all these women, but you know these rappers ain't nothing like us.
Red Ferraris back in the garage.
Too many city lights, it's hard to see the stars at night.
Went left and you was walking out the door.
That's the same reason I would never give you bragging rights.
Things that I need, I will leave 'em. I put it all in the leader.
They bite the hand that would feed 'em.
T prints on all of my fingers. I'm convinced that they did it on purpose.
I was high when I said I was perfect. I said this when I witnessed a murder.
Dying is easy, living is harder.
Your bitch is easy and she gets me harder. I fuck like a dog and I keep me a stalker.
My top five competing, they all fight for starters. Wondering if I should start her.
If it's a problem, I know how to solve 'em. I don't just be talking, I really get off.
Hate when she nah, nah, nah, nah when I'm trapping.
I'm not tryna ignore your texts and your calls. Love when you yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hit you hard from the back, took you shopping, and bought you a car.
I'm tryna give you the world and you still ain't satisfied at all. And I would chill with us more, I'm not satisfied at all.
Don't confuse me with these niggas, I know you not satisfied at all.
I gave this shit my all and they still not satisfied at all.
Don't entertain suicidal thoughts, and I say. Dying is easy, living is harder.
Your bitch is easy and she gets me harder. I fuck like a dog and I keep me a stalker.
My top five competing, they all fight for starters
