Lyrics:
[Intro]
Huh
Love yours
Huh, love yours
No such thing
[Chorus]
No such thing as a life that's better than yours
No such thing as a life that's better than yours (Love yours)
No such thing as a life that's better than yours
No such thing, no such thing
[Post-Chorus]
Heart beatin' fast, let a ni__a know that he alive
Fake ni__as, mad snakes
Snakes in the grass let a ni__a know that he arrived
Don't be sleepin' on your level
'Cause it's beauty in the struggle, ni__a
(Beauty, beauty) Goes for all y'all
It's beauty in the struggle, ni__a
(Beauty, beauty) Let me explain, yeah
[Verse 1]
It's beauty in the struggle, ugliness in the success
Hear my words and listen to my signal of distress
I grew up in the city and know sometimes we had less
Compared to some my ni__as down the block, man, we were blessed
And life can't be no fairytale, no once upon a time
But I be goddamned if a ni__a don't be tryin'
So tell me, Momma please, why you be drinkin' all the time?
Does all the pain he brought you still linger in your mind?
'Cause pain still lingers on mine
On the road to riches, listen, this is what you'll find
The good news is, ni__a, you came a long way
The bad news is, ni__a, you went the wrong way
Think being broke was better
[Chorus]
No such thing as a life that's better than yours (Ha)
No such thing as a life that's better than yours (Think being broke was better)
No such thing as a life that's better than yours
(Think being broke was better, yeah) No such thing, no such thing
[Verse 2]
For what's money without happiness?
Or hard times without the people you love?
Though I'm not sure what's 'bout to happen next
I ask for strength from the Lord (Man) up above
'Cause I been strong so far, but I can feel my grip loosenin'
Quick, do somethin' before you lose it for good, get it back and use it for good
And touch the people how you did like before
I'm tired of livin' with demons 'cause they always invitin' more
Think being broke was better, now I don't mean that phrase with no disrespect
To all my ni__as out there livin' in debt
Cashin' minimal checks, turn on the TV, see a ni__a Rolex
And fantasize about a life with no stress
I mean this sh__ sincerely, and as a ni__a who was once in your shoes
Livin' with nothin' to lose, I hope one day you hear me
Always gon' be a bigger house somewhere, but ni__a feel me
Long as the people in that motherf__ker love you dearly
Always gon' be a whip that's better than the one you got
Always gon' be some clothes that's fresher than the ones you rock
Always gon' be a b__ch that's badder out there on the tours
But you ain't never gon' be happy 'til you love yours
[Chorus]
No such thing as a life that's better than yours (Love yours)
No such thing as a life that's better than yours (Love yours)
No such thing as a life that's better than yours (Love yours)
No such thing, no such thing
[Outro]
Heart beatin' fast, let a ni__a know that he alive
Fake ni__as, mad snakes
Snakes in the grass let a ni__a know that he arrived
