Lyrics
The debut EP by Caobone
[Verse 1]
Y'all already know, that's how it go
I'm already thirty four, give a fuck how old
Cuz I'm still young at heart
Do your thang, do your part
Play the game, feed the sharks
Food for your brain, keep it smart
Stay in your lane, I'm driftin' left
You on the right, I guess I'm wrong
I'm losin' sight, you movin' on
Further apart we go, I wasn't ready
Played your cards I fold, shit was heavy
My hand was full but my feet is steady
I ran to the goal, with depleted energy
I'ma let the world know to never give in
Stakes is high, go and roll that dice
Fakes will lie and never think twice
Snakes ain't gon' weather thru the night
They won't ever tell how to live your life
Lie on me, when I close my eyes to sleep
Die on my knees, before I accept defeat
Grindin' all week, so we got somethin' to eat
One life for sho, keep on truckin' to the beat
[Chorus]
Don't cry, dry your eyes
Keep your head up
No lie, keep it high
Pray for my dead bruh
Stay high, 'til I die
We ain't never let up
We ain't never let up
Don't cry, dry your eyes
Keep your head up
No lie, on my mind
Tears I might shed one
On mine, 'til I die
We ain't never let up
We ain't never let up
[Verse 2]
Yo I'm still tryna make this rap music
Though at times I feel like I can't do it
Cuz all these motherfuckin' problems
If this shit ain't solved by tomorrow
Somebody please bring out the bottles
I don't even wanna resort to this
But it's like I have no choice in it
Lord forgive me, I can't find rejoice in this
Never had a place in this cold world
Shit I can't even face my own girl
I'm in a rat race to the death of me
I'm so faded off this fifth of Hennessy
Still I put my trust in the Jesus piece
Jaded like the green on my necklace
Daydream beyond all the recklessness
Makin' sure I don't ever fall to the enemies
Pray when I'm gone, I see the heaven gates
Until then, let's sing this song and levitate
We gotta keep movin' on, for you I dedicate
[Chorus]
Don't cry, dry your eyes
Keep your head up
No lie, keep it high
Pray for my dead bruh
Stay high, 'til I die
We ain't never let up
We ain't never let up
Don't cry, dry your eyes
Keep your head up
No lie, on my mind
Tears I might shed one
On mine, 'til I die
We ain't never let up
We ain't never let up
