Never judge a man by his past A man's value ain't defined by his cash A woman's worth ain't defined by her ass Hard to tell who's real when we all wearing masks Hard to keep a smile when you living on ya last Hard to hold on when it's feelings you can't grasp Hard to see the snakes when you never cut the grass When you get bit you could cry or you could laugh I tend to do both that's the only way to live From the heart that's the only way to give From the soul that's the only way to speak From experience the only way to teach After practice is the only time to preach Let it burn that's how you deal with a leech What a reach This is the way I live Lil Boy still pushin' big wheels I stack my money, lay low, and chill Don't need to work hard thats the way I feel, I feel And this is the way I live Lil Boy still pushin' big wheels I stack my money, lay low, and chill Don't need to work hard thats the way I feel, I feel And this is the way I live This is the way I live I'm living I'm living I'm living This is the way I live The way I live The way I live This is the way I live This is the way I live
