PROJECT PAT - Life We Live lyrics

[Project Pat]

I was broke pocket full of lint now I'm on the bricks

getting paid like no other dog now I'm stackin' chips

on the road like a trucker man had to take some trips

doing shows for my brothers but strapped with extra clicks

just in case any sucker would wanna run his lips

a female I don't trust her cause women like to trip

I stay all by my getty green hell with some time

there some crime that was petty seem still getting mine

all this hate trip I'm hearing though you I ain't fearing

better try to be growing old man with your children

escalate what a nigga staring his last days nearing

trying to get it right with god only one who I'm fearing

hopin' I'ma make it keep it real

never knew I get the chances for a nigga to get paid

so I take it living like a player should

wishin' that you could knowin' it's all to the good

still down with the hood

[Chorus: repeat]

This Life We Live (Life as we see it)

See it's oh so beautiful (Oh it's so) beautiful

Oh so beautiful (Oh it's so beautiful)

[Project Pat]

Last year my cousin took a fall, a sad song

seem like we were just on the phone now he gone

people use to try to judge him sayin' he was wrong

but you can't try to judge a man you do you wrong

smokin' out on a daily base I'm in the clouds

drinkin' liqour fallin' on my face

wondering how I survive all this foolishness

up in the street ridin' dirty I ain't new to this

I'm packin' heat but the streets very hazardous

to a niggaz health watch your step you ain't Lazarus

you'll meet your death

I'm the man from the North, North site of the town

with the will to support me and keep em found

stayin' down got your gold grills dro in the air

barbecue on the grill sun cool for a player

when I ride through the streets hoes are plentiful

Cause the life that we live so beau-ti-ful

[(Chorus) 2x]

[Project Pat]

Gotta take the good with the bad

smile with the sad, love what you got

and remember what you had messin' with the ones

who help me in the times

when I was flat broke didn't even have a dime

my family they was there, my niggaz they was there

the rest of ya'll left me for dead didn't care

I use to have dreams livin' large in this thang

and by the grace of god I'm still alive in this thang

I strive in this game to get all that I can

Never said I'm the man, respect me as a man

to you ones think I owe you somethin'

now that's a joke think you bad come and get you somethin'

how low to dope

either treal either fake

you can love you can hate

either go and get your own or you can't sit and wait

on the next man to come up you can peep this

you can do what I do handle your bu-si-ness

[(Chorus) 2x
