Cold As Ice

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Yeah, how could anyone define this life of mine? Been a star, tryna find my time to shine Going hard, not a flaw, this by design Uninspired by the basic, fall in line Taking time like I'm waiting for a surprise Overcoming, stay patient, world be mine I could run all them bases, Barry Bonds And fall in love with every lady, very fine And get away from every label they apply Man, that shit will feel great, like getting a job Anything in my way, I push it aside What I can't control, I leave it up to God I'm getting it now, I've been thinking 'bout All the places I went, all thе memories found On a spiritual note, making history now Want a biggеr amount, tryna figure it out Gotta figure it out Feel like I've been living scenes in a movie Every day, tryna make dreams come true Negotiatin' the choices of mine Tryna take every chance that I'm close to Paranoid, more antisocial 'Cause I know I don't fit in with the culture Got a couple rough ends on my soul Got a hundred missed calls on my phone, too That don't mean I ain't destined to grow too That don't mean I ain't worthy of a throne That just means I just know what you know too It's a fight in this world so cold It's a height tryna reach your goals Set back, but I can't let go When I know that I'm meant for more Out of life, so I want the most [Pre-Chorus] I know some people ain't gon' like me I know I'll be misunderstood I see hate is really love, it's priceless Ayy, all I want is to say life is good [Chorus] So I'm gettin' fly tonight, gettin' by until I'm right For everything I sacrifice because I want the best of life So I'm gettin' fly tonight, gettin' by until I'm right For everything I sacrifice, yeah, I want the best of life [Verse 2] Yeah, real person, that's for sure, imperfect and it shows Underrated, overworked, motivated to have more This world gets cold as ice, trade money for a life Unfair, but I ain't gon' cry, no fair when I play with fire No deal, I'm takin' mine (Takin' mine) When it come to heart, got a different kind (Yeah, yeah) Yeah, it's a couple scars and stripes (Uh-huh) Yeah, it's a couple wars inside (Wars inside) Medicate for better days (Better days) Say all wounds heal in time (In time) Tell myself I'm feelin' fine (I'm fine, I'm fine) Even though I'm close to breakin' Pray to God each day I wake in Say grace for the strides we takin' It's a race, it's a job, it's amazing It's a shame how this world goin' crazy It's some problems approaching me lately I can't possibly post on the daily I can't possibly please every hater It's getting harder to do every favor And go through the phases and not come out jaded But, I swear, I've been trying to find a way to Lord, give me strength and patience More peace, say please and thank you I believe when I pray to the angels I'm elite when I play to my strengths I've been peeping the way that the world moves I've been seein' who heavily favored [Pre-Chorus] I know some people ain't gon' like me I know I'll be misunderstood I see hate is really love, it's priceless Ayy, all I want is to say life is good [Chorus] So I'm gettin' fly tonight, gettin' by until I'm right For everything I sacrifice because I want the best of life So I'm gettin' fly tonight, gettin' by until I'm right For everything I sacrifice, yeah, I want the best of life
