lirik lagu anthony j. shears - the art of survival
intro:
what you gotta ask yourself is
what does it mean to survive
survive is absolute
and it’s by any means
at least for me
verse 1:
lord forgive me, i ain’t prayin’ much lately
i ain’t sayin much lately
stress got me pins and needles
got me stayin’ up lately
like, why they hate me
i know it’s part of the game
but d-mn, why try and break me
and truthfully, i don’t need their awards
i know what i say is real
so i don’t need their applause
i’m so immersed
so obsessed with this verse
see i’m trying to make things work
but it feels so much worse
got every spare part
but there ain’t no spare hearts
trapped my mind and my body but please spare my thoughts
please
no i’m not something that you should fear
one sell from h-ll, one gram from 25 years
shears
product of public housing
our living sp-ce was crowded
me and my little brothers, we underneath one cover
then was the worst nights listening to momma fight
when absent daddy’s who ain’t want us
this is our life
i held my brothers tight, like we gonna see the light
momma by our bedside crying tears of sacrifice
kings morn the promised praise of princes locked in chains
yet still we made it and we looked forward to brighter days
when desperation sets in it’ll make you k!ll your best friend
its worst than suffocation how you judge that situation
survival of the fittest goes to the highest bidders
and since our pockets are empty, the world will never miss us
