GANGSTA FOR LIFE
[Intro]
Yeah...
From the bottom to the top...
You know how we ride.
Gangsta for life.
[Chorus]
Gangsta for life, yeah, I came from the pain,
Walked through the storm, now I'm dancing in the rain.
Started with nothing, now I'm chasing my name,
They switched up quick, but I'm still the same.
Gangsta for life, I was born in the fight,
Dark days, cold streets, trying to see the light.
No fear in my heart, got my dreams in sight,
Came from the bottom, I'm a gangsta for life.
[Verse 1]
Mama told me, “Son, better stay strong,”
Life gets hard, but you gotta move on.
Friends turned enemies, enemies smiled,
Had to grow fast, I was just a child.
Late nights, no sleep, dreams in my head,
Thinking 'bout the future while the past felt dead.
They didn't believe when I said I'd rise,
Now they see the fire burning in my eyes.
I don't need love from the ones who left,
Built myself up when I had nothing left.
Every scar got a story to tell,
Made it through heaven, made it through hell.
[Chorus]
Gangsta for life, yeah, I came from the pain,
Walked through the storm, now I'm dancing in the rain.
Started with nothing, now I'm chasing my name,
They switched up quick, but I'm still the same.
Gangsta for life, I was born in the fight,
Dark days, cold streets, trying to see the light.
No fear in my heart, got my dreams in sight,
Came from the bottom, I'm a gangsta for life.
[Verse 2]
Money on my mind, but my soul stay real,
You don't know my struggle, you don't know how I feel.
Had to trust myself when nobody cared,
Walked through the darkness, never scared.
Fake love everywhere, I can see through the lies,
Lost some brothers, still I keep my head high.
One day you're here, next day you're gone,
That's why I put my pain inside every song.
I'm not perfect, I made mistakes,
But every fall made me stronger than yesterday.
Now I'm building dreams they can never destroy,
From the streets to the stage, hear my voice.
[Bridge]
They can talk, they can hate,
But they can't control my fate.
I survived every night,
Now I'm ready for the light.
[Final Chorus]
Gangsta for life, yeah, I came from the pain,
Walked through the storm, now I'm dancing in the rain.
Started with nothing, now I'm chasing my name,
They switched up quick, but I'm still the same.
Gangsta for life, till the day that I die,
Dreaming of the stars while I'm reaching the sky.
No matter where I go, I'ma always remember why—
I came from the bottom...
Gangsta for life.
