lirik lagu kofi stone - amagoh (life won't kill me)
[intro]
cause i feel the pain
i feel the rain, i feel the fire
i feel ashamed, i feel insane
i feel desire
nothing to say i feel a way
down to the wire
just take me higher
just take me higher
high, high
high, high
greetings, greetings friends, so we meet again
the searching i’ve been doing has lead me to this moment
i found the main component
[verse 1]
streets crazy man i nearly fell victim
just another number in the system, oh they would missed him
gone like the clouds in the distance
yo it could be over in a instant
gotta givе thanks, cause it coulda been a mess
ptsd i ain’t coping with the strеss
tryna get the last laugh took me to the depths
i was living with this hard heart heavy and depressed
pride put me to the test, can’t regress, living with regrets
mother wept by the steps, i’m living for the flesh
i shivered in my creps i can’t half the debts
was riddled with the stress this heart can’t posses
cold sweats, i didn’t address the debt still owed
one less zero crept and kept below
trauma as a kiddo, i just needed a hero
weeped like the willow, soaked the whole pillow
the chipped brillo, used to swig it by the bar
my mother said her fear is we was swimming with sharks
i missed a couple wishes, we was still in the dark
my life story crazy man you wouldn’t know the half
i’m living fast, shivers up in our hearts
dismissive bout the misses, envisioned to hit to mark
the trick is i was viscous my spirits was in the dark
stitching the biggest scars, feeling its hitting hard
[chorus]
i can’t let this life defeat me
n0body told me life was easy
it’s been a ride i’m tired and weary
but life won’t k!ll me
i can’t let this life defeat me
n0body told me life was easy
it’s been a ride i’m tired and weary
but life won’t k!ll me
[verse 2]
i had this vision of jesus and he was staring at me
arms starched out he told me that he loved me
tears started falling i was running away
he said he died for my sins so there’s nothing to pay
i was living in a cage he delivered the grace
i was giving him the praise, i remembered the grave
now my heart stays saved i’m delivered and safe
heartbreaks, i was living astray
everyday we have choice, we have a choice in situations
a choice to show hatred or a choice to show patience
a choice to show pride or a choice of being gracious
a choice of being average or a choice to be the greatest
humility and honesty was what i’m tryna mirror
when i was on my own it was the lord that was a pillar
i tried to make a change but saw the chance was getting slimmer
no matter how you play it really i was just a sinner
speaking to the holy man and asking him a question
he told me there’s a higher chance i’m making it to heaven
cause i believe in jesus and i’m learning from my lessons
i know that this was hard but you should focus on repentance
i used say at least i ain’t a k!ller or a thief
if every sin was equal then where was it leaving me
i guess that we was equal that was really what it seems
i tried to count the blessings through the pressures and grief
[chorus]
i can’t let this life defeat me
n0body told me life was easy
it’s been a ride i’m tired and weary
but life won’t k!ll me
i can’t let this life defeat me
n0body told me life was easy
it’s been a ride i’m tired and weary
but life won’t k!ll me
[verse 3]
i feel convicted to make a change a revolution
see it’s the changing of the mindset
things we gotta digest but we always digress, avoiding the problem
this ain’t an option there was work to be done it’s urgent
or we could sit here and watch the world burn
they rather stay dumb, than read a book and not learn
it’s shameless, n0body wanna think no more
there’s people drowning to the point they couldn’t sink no more
cause that’s the way that we was taught, that’s the way that we’re trained
bury the trauma in the back and don’t address it again
til the trauma manifests and you was never the same
doing the same thing twice and expecting a change
i mean we really need reminding what was really the truth
it’s propaganda every time that i was reading the news
we need teachers, teachers who was teaching the truth
cause seeds weaken they was needing the roots
i wrote this verse for anybody out there poisoning the youth
that goes for corporations, governments and rappers in the booth
all that k!ll a man and shout about its never gonna do
but i guess that was depending on your views, so tell me what’s the move?
cause everyday we’re running out of time
sometimes you gotta leave the world behind
was thinking if the food don’t k!ll us, the the fumes might k!ll us
i’m just hoping we dont k!ll ourselves (well)
[chorus]
i can’t let this life defeat me
n0body told me life was easy
it’s been a ride i’m tired and weary
but life won’t k!ll me
i can’t let this life defeat me
n0body told me life was easy
it’s been a ride i’m tired and weary
but life won’t k!ll me
