letra de alive - n. talekt

[intro]
sometimes i put my hand to chest
… just to feel my heartbeat
all alone with the lights down low
… listen to myself breathe
so much going on in my head
… hard to hear myself think
but i remember where i could be instead
… then i feel the stress leave

[verse 1]
i’m so thankful for the air i breathe
they wanna take it every corner i turn
so i’m thankful for the water i drink, ’cause they wanna watch me burn
they don’t think i see, and they don’t wanna see me learn
they wanna see me work, but don’t wanna see me earn
rather have me in an urn, ashes to ashes in biblical terms
won’t have satisfaction ’til i’m on a curb
imagine reactions because i’ve endured!
momma i made it, i know that she proud
fought hard when she raised me just to keep me a child
ignorant to her trials, confident through her doubts
now the roles reversed, and so i greet her with smiles
knowing i’m hurt, but she done been strong so long
that the weight on her shoulders affecting her bones y’all
tryina lift both ours while telling her hold on
long distance dealing with close calls

[hook]
but i’m still alive, surprised i survived
’cause it’s a cold world so many ways to die
it could end any day so before i say goodbye
i promise always to give everything i got
’cause i’m still alive, surprised i survived
’cause it’s a cold world so many ways to die
it could end any day so before i say goodbye
i promise always to give everything i got
i’m alive!

[verse 2]
tryina enjoy the ride but the road ain’t perfect
the sun’s in my eyes and i’m pothole swerving
either that, or it’s rain and the wipes ain’t working
don’t know where to turn and i don’t see churches
never been the type to put the clergy on perches
flesh and bone like us so they got these urges
kids don’t deserve it, it don’t seem worth it
then forced to come back and sit through service
wonder why they need pills, psychs and surgeons
and that’s just who trust, the situation worsens
when ya hated by persons, who’ve got one purpose
bring you down their level or six feet further
… and sometimes i fight myself
scars in my mind, i can hide the welts
looking in my hand at the five i’m dealt
i play the cards and pray for those who i can’t help

sometimes i put my hand to chest
… just to feel my heartbeat
all alone with the lights down low
… listen to myself breathe
so much going on in my head
… hard to hear myself think
but i remember where i could be instead
… then i feel the stress leave

[hook]

[verse 3]
sometimes i take for granted what’s granted
overlook what i’m handed, ’til it’s stolen by bandits
then react like i planned it, tryina bandage the damage
either that, or a manic in panic can’t manage to manage
… it’s hard to take loss
’cause life ain’t cheap, and everything costs
when the price too steep i just keep it in my thoughts
but without this ink you would probably see me fall
see i want it all, and every day i’ve come up short
it’s getting hard, if force is what i gotta resort
gimme the ball, and watch the don come up court
score, then lock d, try and raid my fort
i can’t afford mistakes when the light shines
i don’t know if i’mma get another lifetime
… maybe i don’t want it again
i’ll appreciate it now ’til i’m gone in the wind
fin

[bridge]
