I'm Alive
N.A.D. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Put me in a box like I'm paralyzed
You gonna pay for what you stole
I'm alive, I'm alive
Thought I'm gone but I'm comin' back
You know I'm quick like a heart attack
I'm takin' back the throne
I'm alive, I'm alive
Why, oh, why am I the only one who sees it? (I'm alive, I'm alive)
The devil's in the details everything's strategic (I'm alive, I'm alive)
I need holy water I need Holy Spirit (I'm alive, I'm alive)
You can lay and rot I resurrect like Jesus (I'm alive)
Run up like I been at this (at this)
Go a hundred percent with it (yeah)
Jump on a jet and deliver a message to enemies, haters and nemesis
And if I miss, I'm coming back made a promise finish this
I had the power since Genesis, that's only one of the benefits
That's why the hummers and motorcades
Do a hundred through tunnels and to the bridge
They should be under my tutelage
'Cause with the hammer I'm too legit
Only lose if you choose to bury the truth and silence the root of it
I can't be silent I'm ruthless
I got the potential to prove it
Why, oh, why am I the only one who sees it?
The devil's in the details everything's strategic
I need holy water I need Holy Spirit
You can lay and rot I resurrect like Jesus
I'm still living, I'm still getting it
I'm still putting in work
I'm still reppin' got my weapon and I hit 'em where it hurts
I'm still seven steps ahead of Heaven, heavily immersed
Shotty in the Chevy, lady got the semi in the purse
I'm still living, I'm still getting it
I'm still putting in work
I'm still reppin' got my weapon and I hit 'em where it hurts
I'm still seven steps ahead of Heaven, heavily immersed
Shotty in the Chevy, lady got the semi in the purse
Resurrection, I'm alive
Put me in a box like I'm paralyzed
You gonna pay for what you stole
I'm alive, I'm alive
Thought I'm gone but I'm comin' back
You know I'm quick like a heart attack
I'm takin' back the throne
I'm alive, I'm alive
I resurrect like Jesus
Respiratory pressure, keep my breath normal in chest
My heart is warm blooded and let's remind my ourself
I can attest that enemies seek to destroy every woman, Mammal and boy
North and south of equator they mobilize and deploy (yeah)
No disguise will protect you there's no such hiding place
I retraced all of my steps and all I found was a diamond and toys (yeah)
Metal objects to shatter spread broken glass in a pattern on open fields
We never yield on this side of the war
You get me once, I come again
I called your bluff, you run again
You run again, you run again
You run again (yeah)
Why, oh, why am I the only one who sees it?
The devil's in the details everything's strategic
I need holy water I need Holy Spirit
You can lay and rot I resurrect like Jesus
I resurrect like Jesus (I'm alive)
I'ma resurrect like Jesus (yes, I'm alive)
Resurrect like Jesus (I'm alive)
Resurrection, I'm alive
Put me in a box like I'm paralyzed
You gonna pay for what you stole
I'm alive, I'm alive
Thought I'm gone but I'm comin' back
You know I'm quick like a heart attack
I'm takin' back the throne
I'm alive, I'm alive
