Mi Vida - Mile

La música es, la música es

La música es, la música es

Mi vida-da-da-da

Da-da-da-da

La música es, la música es

La música es, la música es

Mi vida-da-da-da

Da-da-da-da

Yeah, look, bottle and cap my feelings

Part of my life has got to disappear to make a killing

Such an expensive house with glass walls and ceilings

The price of fame is paid off with any of my opinions

And don’t confuse daps in person and daps in private

Keep an eye on the ones that love you and try to hide it

Try deny it, and you gon catch me looking past it

Those sheets are over a bed of lies and you’re the fucking mattress

But it’s getting harder for them to hate

Taller than my shortcomings, still don’t overlook mistakes

Every track, set them straight: chalk line, yellow tape

Only one to hit a stride the same time I set a pace

But Lord, my feet are getting weary

I said I’d ride alone but I might need you here to steer me

This narrow road to greatness is looking like a mirage

The longer I keep it moving the more that I’m feeling lost…

Am I lost?

I wish I could plug a projector in my thoughts

A montage of my memories, the special moments caught

Put together an audience screening that’s therapeutic

Light a spliffy up and show you whatever’s left out the music

But I only show the past and how we’re used to living

I can’t let none of them in on the future vision

And if you getting nervous when you see a nigga winning?

Then you know in your heart that it’s cause you ain’t going with him

Nah, cause snakes don’t ever come in handy

I keep a circle small enough, make it part of the family

And the circle’s gold — we huddling for a namesake

Circle still small enough to try eat off the same plate

Cause lately I’m burning myself out

Opinions and comparisons — enough to lose count

Told who to be and what to say, shit I could do without

By niggas who never put in the practice from word of mouth

I wish that I could pick my pressures

Like dealing with the kind of being next up

Over every opinionated rapper playing dress-up

These are thoughts over drinks with my main thing when I fess up

Lord
