Humor - Live Or Get By [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
I wondering, how to get it in
How to set a presidential type of precedent
How to separate from niggas that are decadent
Declare a destination and go there is what I'm reckoning
I reckon since I was younger on the road
I knew I had I do a record and
I reckon since I felt that hunger in my soul
I had to conjure up some doe
The only way I know to settle it
You get the message yet?
You get the message of a young nigga
In that inner city situation tryna get his funds bigger
I said I wanna be the one, nigga
I told myself I said I'll never be a dumb nigga
My motivation was to taste a little doe
Procrastination is a way to never make it
So I'm steady elevating as I chase another goal
I gotta chase another goal I gotta make a ton of doe


[Hook]
Young niggas with a dream of getting money
We was all on the roadside
Used to be a fantasy but now I really want it
It's do or die my nigga
So you know I gotta keep tryna get it till I got it
It's you and I my nigga
So you know we gotta stay up in the running till we run it
Tell em I

Said I'm tryna live I ain't tryna get by
Said I'm tryna live I ain't tryna get by no

I ain't settling for less
No way, I'm tryna get it are you running with me


[Verse 2]
I was on the road, me and all my home
Boys dreaming of some dollar
Without a plan to follow its imaginary gwolla
Holla if you ever seen a lazy nigga go from squalor to a baller
I seen a nigga go from right up on the corner
To right before your honour
To lying in a cell up in the slammer
Federales got his phone deciphered the grammar
And had him in a cell before the summer
Niggas out here getting wrapped quicker than a doner
Put the work in but the method isn't working
And they've got a strict aversion to this working blue-collar lifestyle
It's your life, your choice, your mother
What a bummer, collect all the money in the world you'll never get a 1-up
Fuck this life up nigga you'll never get another
Opportunities are looming if your prudent you can catch em if you wanna
Yeah I gotta, yeah I must, yes trust
I'm bout to take a trip with me, myself ma boys and marijuana
Yeah I gotta, yeah I must, yes trust
Then put the game up in a stunner
Suddenly these niggas wanna follow
Suddenly these bitches get malicious when they see me with another
Suddenly these niggas wanna follow
Suddenly these bitches get malicious when they see me with another


[Hook]


[Verse 3]
It's all or nothing for a nigga like
I was living life in that inner city situation, recognise
As a juvenile most of the shit that I thought was important isn't now
Most of the shit that I thought was important isn't how
I'm gonna make it out, of the kind of situation where I'm scraping out
Of the bottom of the barrel
Barricade a hater they ain't gonna take you down
I see my mother struggle and I bleed my heart for her
She came out of a nation where opportunities are vacant
To give her kids a foundation and a passport
The type of shit that we don't ask for
You think that shits given?
That's why I shake my head when niggas fucking with prison
That's why I shake my head when niggas acting like
They ain't got a thing to lose as if their life ain't even worth living


[Hook]
