My Life, Pt. II

[Intro: J-Dawg]
(G&B) Uh
Be careful what you ask for (G&B)

[Chorus: Mary J. Blige]
If you looked at my life
And see what I've seen (La-la-la-la-la)
If you looked at my life
And see what I've seen (La-la-la-la-la, la, la)
If you looked at my life
And see what I've seen (La-la-la-la-la)
If you looked at my life
And see what I've seen (Yeah)

[Verse 1: Propain]
Blessin's, what the hell is that? We stressin'
Ain't no food 'round this bitch, my daddy took a exit
Momma double-shifted still feel like we got nothin'
I can't sleep cause the roof leak and water drip inside this fuckin' bucket
You either starvin' or you thuggin', or sellin' dope, we was 13
Mark dropped outta school and started hustlin'
My dog schooled me to these stealin' cars, I ain't wanna touch it
But the way them hoes kept laughin' at my shoes, I was like, "Fuck it"
So now we on some shit, we tip-toein' when we roll up
Backin' niggas cars out driveways like a tow truck
Hit the north side 'cause the chop shop gon' give us more bucks
And them same hoes that was laughin' at my shoes, now they gon' fuck
Blindfolded in the fast lane, we can't slow up
We on the news now, auto-theft division startin' to know us
The walls was closin' in, them clear skies turnin' gray
See that's the part about the streets that they don't warn you when you play
Them hatin' niggas killed my dog, a bitch set 'em up
Ain't leave the house for three days, my pillow case was wet as fuck
When you young, you can't fathom that they never comin' back
Your baby boy gone, how the fuck I tell his mama that? My soul numb
They gave my bro a dub and closed the case
That devil go to work, it gets hard to hold your faith
Ghetto dealers, bad hands, but this the cards we chose to play
We ain't worried about tomorrow, hope they don't take our soul today, nigga
This my life

[Chorus: J-Dawg & Mary. J Blige]
If you looked at my life
And see what I've seen (Ayy, you don't wanna see this shit, la-la-la-la-la, mmm)
If you looked at my life
And see what I've seen (Nigga, I don't wanna see this shit, la-la-la-la-la, la, la)
If you looked at my life
And see what I've seen (I done broke every mirror I had 'cause I can't face it, la-la-la-la-la)
If you looked at my life
And see what I've seen

[Verse 2: J-Dawg]
I'm screamin' out to you, Lord, it's your long lost child
I know I strayed off, been gone for a while now
Please don't turn that deaf ear to me (Please)
You say, “Ask and you will receive”
Father, forgive me I'm lost, ho ass devil got me under his wing
Every time I try to come, he always intervene (Every time)
Strike a flame deep in my brain
Got me thinkin' 'bout killin', when at first, I was thinkin' I'm changed (Changed)
Like a nigga schizophrenic (Man)
Minute I'm cool, and then I'm actin' a fool, can't understand it
I'm manic shit (Crazy shit), so close to goin' insane ('Sane), mmm
Lord please, if you don't ease this pain, at least stop the rain
Pourin' down hail storm lately (Hail storm lately)
Heart torn, got me blinder than a new born baby (New born baby)
Smoke at least two or three packs of Newports daily (Crazy)
My body done, Lord, if you don't come, this cancer gonna take me away (Mmm)
Sound weak? Well nigga, you come fade it (Bitch ass shit)
I done lost so many partners now, I-I ain't crazy (Look at me, I ain't crazy)
But I ain't normal neither (That hard), normal than a non-believer (Mmm)
Mind wicked, I done witnessed some of the sickest evils done to people (On God)
Shit, I committed sins I can't believe forgiven either (Yeah)
And I believe in Jesus, but I'm still scared of sleepin'
Dreamin' 'bout these same bitch-ass demons every night (Every night)
Tryna kill me, I really feel it, I be fightin' for my life
And right before I, die

[Outro: J-Dawg]
If you looked at my life
And see what I've see, see (Yeah, they don't wanna see this shit, la-la-la-la-la)
If you looked at my life
And see what I've seen (La-la-la-la-la)
If you looked at my life, looked at my life
Ah, you looked at my life (La-la-la-la-la)
If you looked at my life
My life, yeah, yeah
