Life
G-Pal Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh
Oh
Oh, oh
Remember them days at 3AM I just laid awake
Thinking of the past and all my grave mistakes
Anticipating if from all this darkness I could break away (break away)
For a while I had learned to isolate myself and stay away
And now I think and regret that
But still don't view it as a set back
The rainy days seem dark, but it only make you grow
Now I'm learning to accept it, move on (move on)
Hope one day I'll reap the grain I sow (yeah)
Though it still be lurking in my head, just want the pain to go, I've
Been so
Down low
I still wonder what had happened to me, 'cause
I ain't felt it again since, and never before
Didn't wanna get up, didn't wanna move a muscle
But unless it's from this music, nobody would know
Ain't nobody been knew all of the things I been through
But who am I to complain?
Gotta get up out yo' head, get the gains, get the family fed
At least that's what I'm always preachin'
He got bars, and he got rhymes now I got 'em all
Geekin'
I don't buy the hype no more, even if I'm sometimes
Speakin'
I'd rather tell my real life story even if it's in my feelings
This ain't an act, so why have y'all make believe in?
I ain't tryna live in make believin'
Now my mind racin', heart beatin'
I'm just heart seekin', but maybe that's far reachin'
Or maybe this all just because the season
Uh
Either way you can't say it ain't so, because
How you gon' tell me I'm the same dude from two years ago?
How you gon' think I ain't improve from two weeks ago?
Everybody learn, everybody grow
I just hope to have my story told
Get a couple hunned bands in the bag to go
And believe me when I tell you it's a passion, ain't no dare to live how I do
I make foul moves (foul moves)
But I can only bounce back, better and bigger than ever like a howl moon
Yeah
Only bounce back like a howl moon
I'm on the prowl soon (Uh)
Remember them days at 3AM I just laid awake
Thinking of the past and all my grave mistakes
Anticipating if from all this darkness I could break away (break away)
For a while I had learned to isolate myself and stay away
And now I think and regret that
But still don't view it as a set back
The rainy days seem dark, but it only make you grow
Now I'm learning to accept it, move on
Hope one day I'll reap the grain I sow, yeah
This just truth being told
They gon' still hate on me, try and get me to fold
When really it's some messages of gold
I'm just try'na spread it to as many as I can, 'fore it's too late
Even those that choose to hate
It's all love at the end, so if I can I'd sit down
Just talk over some coffee and a plate




Don't want nobody left outside of the gates
No
