  • Huh
    Love yours
    Huh, love yours
    No such thing

    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

    Heart beatin' fast, let a nigga know that he alive
    Fake niggas, mad snakes
    Snakes in the grass let a nigga know that he arrived
    Don't be sleepin' on your level
    'Cause it's beauty in the struggle, nigga (beauty, beauty)
    Goes for all y'all
    It's beauty in the struggle, nigga (beauty, beauty)
    Let me explain, yeah

    It's beauty in the struggle, ugliness in the success
    Hear my words or listen to my signal of distress
    I grew up in the city and know sometimes we had less
    Compared to some of my niggas 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 nigga don't be tryin'
    So tell me, mama please, why you be drinking 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, nigga, you came a long way
    The bad news is, nigga, you went the wrong way
    Think being broke was better

    No such thing as a life that's better than yours
    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
    No such thing, no such thing
    (Think being broke was better, yeah)

    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 asked for strength from the Lord up above
    'Cause I've been strong so far
    But I can feel my grip loosening
    Quick, do something 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 inviting more
    Think being broke was better
    Now I don't mean that phrase with no disrespect
    To all my niggas out there living in debt
    Cashing minimal checks
    Turn on the TV see a nigga Rolex
    And fantasize about a life with no stress
    I mean this shit sincerely
    And that's a nigga who was once in your shoes
    Living with nothin' to lose
    I hope one day you hear me
    Always gon' be a bigger house somewhere, but nigga feel me
    'Long as the people in that motherfucker 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 one's you rock
    Always gon' be a bitch that's badder out there on the tours
    But you ain't never gon' be happy 'til you 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 as a life that's better than yours (love yours)
    No such thing, no such thing

    Heart beatin' fast, let a nigga know that he alive
    Fake niggas, mad snakes
    Snakes in the grass let a nigga know that he arrived Writer/s: Calvin James Price, Carl E. McCormick, Jermaine L. Cole, Ramon Jr. Ibanga
