lirik lagu t-beat - dead or alive
[intro]
as i contemplate the essence of life
i wondered what truths we will find between life and death
to live is to embrace the journey
to preserve your dedication
to preserve your feeling of love
and your purpose
within us lies the answer, in all that we see
do we want to know what death is, or do we want to be?
[chorus]
dead or alive, dead or alive, dead or alive, dead or alivе
be free, yeah, i wanna be mе, don’t you know what i mean?
ghetto life, ghetto life, ghetto life, ghetto life
be free, yeah, i wanna be me, don’t you know what i mean?
[verse 1]
i’m me. i’m me
yes, so who are you? you’re not me
nowadays everybody wants to be free
but they be like
“hey, how are you doing today?”
now don’t act like you care about me
stop the lie, stop the cheat
why compare or compete?
why seek others’ approval to complete?
desperate for the freedom they need
lead and love without imposing our will
’cause leadership ain’t about control, but sk!ll
keep flying until you are the king of the hill
from the pill to the crack, we are under attack
but these artists just care about a f~cking plaque
from abundance to lack
to bribes and betrays
some days are painted in black and despite all that
always look at the bright side of your life
and ask yourself one more time: do you wanna be
[chorus]
dead or alive, dead or alive, dead or alive, dead or alive
be free, yeah, i wanna be me, don’t you know what i mean?
dead or alive, dead or alive, dead or alive, dead or alive
be free, yeah, i wanna be me, don’t you know what i mean?
[verse 2]
in the heart, where hip~hop found its start
now everybody aiming at the top chart
but wisdom tells us, have but don’t possess
act, but don’t expect, let go, don’t obsess
when the work’s done, i let it fade
its impact is to be forever made
y’all people ask me all the time why are you so late?
well, i had to disconnect from the noise, finding my groove
finding the truth, reflect to reconnect, and making my moves smooth
navigating through the darkness of the light
if i get into beef, i’ll be just and embrace the fight
honestly, what’s beef if we both leave deceased?
i do it for love, living in the past present
in family life, i’ll be real and present
not just the guy who comes with the cool presents
’cause you never know, homie, the next day you could be
[chorus]
dead or alive, dead or alive, dead or alive, dead or alive
be free, yeah, i wanna be me, don’t you know what i mean?
dead or alive, dead or alive, dead or alive, dead or alive
be free, yeah, i wanna be me, don’t you know what i mean?
[verse 3]
these words aren’t just fancy, but they prize
and failures offer a chance to rise
’cause wisdom outshines silver and gold
the beat is hot but the words are cold
now when they’re claiming they got the answers, it’s hard to steer ’em
it’s like one saying the truth, it’s hard to clear ’em
what is a good man but a bad man’s teacher?
what is a bad man but a good man’s preacher?
all streams flow down to the sea, they go
you cannot stay up if you want to grow
now ask yourself, fame or integrity?
[outro]
’cause in 100 years we gonna be all dead
100 years from now we gonna all be dead
a 100 years from now we gonna all be dead
think about it
