It's Called Life feat. Deuce One
Wanted to do a song bout life with someone who could put it in words everyone can relate to. Basically, it's bout we see life. As real as it gets .
I'm dedicated to making an under-educated generation feel elevated so everyone can feel the same when I say I made it

Lyrics
[Verse 1]-[Arabflowsta]
I try to translate the meaning of my enviorment
while focusing a dire hit on my surrounding my heart is pounding
why you think before a baby smile it is born in this world frowning
its not an accident its nature cuz life
will snuff ya if it hates ya, i relate ta
all you cats feelin stress, lookin for a healin breath
not seeing they being blessed, cats from back in the day
that went from bad to worse with an adolecense thirst
an we never took it seriously we never saw the herse
every bodies waitin in the same line but he was first
cause it goes with out sayin life is unjust at times
thats why Deuce an I even fuck wit these rhymes
cause its stuck in our minds got my fingers laced together
an lookin for scrap bites
if I could turn back the hands of time I just might
but I cant turn back a man an thats life
[chorus]
Lookin to the sky wit the smoke swirl around
surrounded by the sound scream its all comin down
to a moment, let go or do we hold it watch this
fightin in the day and at night fall unconscious
brawl with our hardest to hope we hold tight
hearts stayin warm through all of these cold nights
for this bitch, we cant live without its called life
for this bitch that we cant live without its called life
[verse 2]-[Deuce One]
The beat provides the form to reveal the truth
I wasn't ass kissed or born wit a silver spoon
I prolly went through the same type of shit as you
Used to get mad at the world like a ritual
but I stopped gettin angry at nothing
Laced up the rage an I aimed it at something
Still I deal wit the day to day shit
Still deal wit fakes that say that they friends
still deal wit life tryna make it make sense
Its too real at night So I lay awake pissed
Tryna tell myself what I already know
that tomorrow is today version two point O (2.0)
Just feels like the worlds movin too dam slow
Stuck in a cage wit no room to grow
An I trip (trip) an I dont like fallin down
but I know that thats what life is all about
[chorus]
Lookin to the sky wit the smoke swirl around
surrounded by the sound scream its all comin down
to a moment, let go or do we hold it watch this
fightin in the day and at night fall unconscious
brawl with our hardest to hope we hold tight
hearts stayin warm through all of these cold nights
for this bitch, we cant live without its called life
for this bitch that we cant live without its called life
[verse 3]-[Arabflowsta]
Life is too short an soon i'll be leavin
I must have a purpose in it because im breathin
Allah who I praise the quran I believin
got my head tilted back before im gone im screamin
see for us, perfect don't exist from the get go
some of us are weak, step slow or let go
if you really wanna see true life then ride the metro
downtown an see where all the dead beats lay
standin every day askin for pennies to eat
an they drunk off they ass aint steady on they feet
they're time was too hot werent ready for the heat
an we warm inside watchin clips of street fight
cats on the corner tryna sell so they eat right
till we defeat strife, keep goin keep marchin
till tomorrows thrown up from the taste of today
all I knows I got a life I aint gon waste it away
[chorus]
Lookin to the sky wit the smoke swirl around
surrounded by the sound scream its all comin down
to a moment, let go or do we hold it watch this
fightin in the day and at night fall unconscious
brawl with our hardest to hope we hold tight
hearts stayin warm through all of these cold nights
for this bitch, we cant live without its called life
for this bitch that we cant live without its called life
