Ugly Heroes - This Is Life Lyrics
Let's go...Apollo Brown[Verse 1: Red Pill]That dude Apollo told me black outGot that pressure feeling like it's really building on the surfaceChilling, underneath I'm cracked outMy blood pressure rises knowing what's on the horizonLike I'm rising but already feeling tapped outLike my cash cow is fresh outta milkAnd [?] taking diligence and effort to buildAnd nobody pays attention to the messengers killedI've been thinking lately I should make my exit and, chillAnd that perspective's realGetting caught up in my record [?]See my competitors know that I'm ahead of the fieldBut still, I'm trying to be better than pillSo, you know my head gets filled with politicsLike Obama and a senator's billWith thoughts spinning, walk with them, lost in itLiquor store blues, how's that medicine feel?[Hook]So walk with me in this dark cityWith this heart skipping where the people talk shittyWhere it's hard living and the [?] givingAnd it's part gritty, and it's part prisonWhere each day complacent and decay with the paintWe play with the paint while we're looking for that new thingWe wait every month on the day we get on butThis is life mother*****er, what did you think?[Verse 2: Verbal Kent]Red Pill told me black outI wasn't always so blessedI'm thankful, had so much less than what I have nowA rapper want beef I bring the mad cowPut in work now, so we can walk the last mileMamma told me there'll be nights like thisA rapper will get [?], rocking mics like thisMust be, I know I cat she had nine livesFirst week, I know you feel lines Verb speaksThis is life mother*****er, what you thought?Students of the game, always [?]Molotov *****tail all up in your thoughtFind fragments of my life scattered all up in my artI'm all up in it from start, finish to end[?]Till then keep manouveringMoving on the right pathMoving with my pad, keep doing it[Hook][Verse 3: Red Pill]And there's a lot of days when I gotta take a step backAnd anyone who's ever been there respects thatCause when I get vindictive, I get intricateAnd specific as [?] isMost of my bullshit in this is self-inflictedAnd I know that I helped this sicknessMost of my problems i createIt's hard to swallow what I ate [?] scraped the bottom of my plateSo am I following mistakes or do I make them on my own[?]Cause everyday it seems I wind up with another issueSomething to get through, more I gotta live throughAnd I get shocked by it, still surprised when the noises in my life in erupting, they're not quietSo is it something to get used to or something I already knewJust had to move through
