lyrics
INTRO
He who avoids complaint, invites happiness.
Gratitude is riches,
Complaint is poverty.
VERSE
Paid my dollar fifty,
Now I'm sitting, on the city; bus
To earn my honest living
Today there's no problem wit me; But
Still I'm takin' in…
This rarity, y'all stare at me; cause
of my, austerity
I'm so used, to despair n these; Con-secutive blessings
Are scarin' me, apparently;
The very things, Coherently
Unsparingly tearing me;
Down…
have all been held at bay;
I'm stealin' today's mercy, cause
Tomorrow there'll be hell to pay;
Compelled to stay this way, It's straight, I'll take, these advantages;
Even if you ain't understandin' just
Hear My candidness;
as I bask in this,
People askin' if I'm high?
Drop these questions, stop requested
I got uh exit this ride;
Outside the gig
Fixin' my tie, before I get inside;
Is this right? I'm early?!
I'll pretend it's fine; but I'm
Still skeptical, Nothing's perpetual Like these taxes;
Or Satan's tactics,
I Practice Good karma but still the fact is…
HOOK (Angelie & Leo)
Life's too good (Life's too good)
To be true (To be True);
Cause Sometimes (Life Beats you)
But Sometimes (It leaves you);
No...Com...
plaaaaint!
No...Com...
plaaay-ain't! (Repeat x3)
VERSE 2
Yeh!
Finally out my 9 to 5;
Servin' the truth since birth
My term's 25 to life;
To my surprise!
A whip pulls up Tory is the driver!
"Jump in kid,
We gotta grab Angelie from Yucaipa";
Traffic ain't bad we, rapping
Back n forth like the wipers;
Cars On the 210,
Are all tuned in, to our cypher;
Youth's wasted on the young, Truth's
wasted on the drunks;
Today ain't over it was
Almost wasted on the bus;
Life's spit on me so much
I feel cleansed again;
Another 'Hey baby' text again,
I got so many messages;
from my estranged exes n, I know
it's bad to mention em;
But Y'all know how good being
The center of attention is!
(Stress can fill life's highway
Today there's none in my lane;
Maybe I never consumed too much
Maybe I'm just a lightweight;
Maybe this is a wake up call,
To rise-whenever I take a fall;
New moon rising, my mind would
surprise me if it's Saved at all.)
HOOK 2
OUTRO
No-no no no-no no
No complaint...
Quit your bitchin'
No complainin'
(Repeat)
