Back to life, back to reality
Back to life, back to reality
Goinβ through a dark place, dark time
And I couldnβt even see the light (light)
Had my back up against the wall
I was feelinβ like do or die (die)
I know itβs gonna be alright (alright)
So we celebratinβ here tonight (tonight)
Yea we celebratinβ life tonight
The time is now
Gotta make it count
So before we die
Letβs go all out
We gotta live it up (up up up up)
Champagne in my cup (cup cup cup cup)
DJ turn it up (up up up up)
Bring me back 2 life, back 2 life
Yea we gotta live it up (up up up up)
You know we donβt give a what (what what what what)
So till my timeβs up (up up up up)
Bring me back 2 life, back 2 life
Back 2 life
Back to life, back to reality
Back to life, back to reality
All the tears and all of the prayers
Every single one of yβall showed me (showed me)
So the love Iβm givinβ back to yβall
Is bigger than the whole country
From England, to Japan, to Jamaica
To right down to MIA
We donβt stop, we go hard
Letβs get it in cause we young and free
The time is now
Gotta make it count
So before we die
Letβs go all out
We gotta live it up (up up up up)
Champagne in my cup (cup cup cup cup)

Bring me back 2 life, back 2 life
Yea we gotta live it up (up up up up)
You know we donβt give a what (what what what what)
So till my timeβs up (up up up up)
Bring me back 2 life, back 2 life
Back 2 life
Back to life, back to reality
Back to life, back to reality
Hereβs the king!
OK, them suckas tried to bury me
Jesus had to carry me
Middle finger to the reaper, nigga ainβt no scarinβ me
Apparently, you donβt understand who I am (who I am)
Itβs trouble man, hundred grand in my pants
Whippinβ dropheads hardtops fit to sell Maybachβs
Maseratiβs, Ferrariβs, that money I donβt play by
Presidents stop me, imagine if I stay down
Still shininβ on them make them haters pull they shades out
When tragedy strikes, I struck back
Lookinβ for me to roll over and die
Who does that?
Left a nigga for dead, come back to life
I guess this is me ballinβ in the afterlife
Letβs get it
Back to life, back to reality
Back to life, back to reality
We gotta live it up (up up up up)
Champagne in my cup (cup cup cup cup)
DJ turn it up (up up up up)
Bring me back 2 life, back 2 life
Yea we gotta live it up (up up up up)
You know we donβt give a what (what what what what)
So till my timeβs up (up up up up)
Bring me back 2 life, back 2 life
Back 2 life

For all you lot who thinks heβs disappeared or died he actually fell off a jet ski after this released and didnβt come back to the music scene for a year then he came back but didnβt get noticed. He still makes most of his money from Performing his old songs but recently he made a ft song with Tory lanez so if you want to see this brother come back show support on that so he can have another song like this and we can relive memories again
