Eulogy by Eric Armitage Lyrics
[Intro]
I don't wanna die and be a nobody
Thanks for all those nights you included me
Life just ain't the same as it used to be
Wonder what they'll write in my eulogy
[Verse 1]
I ain’t no Uzi, I’m just goofy
I’m not flashy, don’t rock jewelry
I’m just Eric, really and truly
Don’t drive Lambos, life’s no movie
Doors go outward, doors don’t go up
Never been ‘bout that, I’m like so what
I give no fucks, I don’t smoke drugs
I don’t mix that lean with soda
I drink water and I make music
I hope that I can help ya’ll get through this
Life we’re stuck with, come scream fuck this
With me, I hope ya’ll keep up with
All that ruckus that you deal with
We might not die on the billboard
Wеarin’ Gucci head to heel, but
At least we kеpt with that real shit
Call your friend, have a conversation
Book that flight and go on vacation
Make sure that you’re there for him
When dad undergo that operation
Tell your girl just where it hurts
While you share dessert at the restaurant
Don’t try to act like a rockstar
Or you’re just as fucked as the rest of ‘em
Everybody wanna be somebody else
Till that somebody actually needs help
I’m just tryna tell you shit is not what it seems
And it’s easier to breathe if you be yourself, c’mon man
Cuz all that glitters is not gold
Please remember me for what I’ve done and not the lies I’ve told
[Chorus]
I don’t wanna die and be a nobody
Thanks for the all the nights you included me
Life just ain’t the same as it used to be
Wonder what they’ll write in my eulogy
I don’t wanna nobody askin’ “who was he?”
Thanks for the all the nights you excluded me
“Had a lot of friends” - it was two or three
No embellishments in my eulogy
[Verse 2]
I ain’t no Tunechi, I just do me
I don’t buy strippers, I don’t get pussy
The way these rappers swear they get it
And I don’t throw paper unless it’s loose leaf
No script, this shit’s not staged
My life’s not a play that I put on display
Cuz I’m a human just like you
I like the applause, but I love my space
Never could try to be Jaden, I ain’t no Icon
I just wanna help you find that thing
You can set your sights on
I don’t do envy, I’m too friendly
I ain’t try to be that, I’ve just been me
I would never buy that Bentley
Until my friends are livin’ debt-free, uh
Drop me in my casket or you’re free to spread my ashes
Down at Pixley Park where mama taught me how to be a Catholic
Play Shady at the Mass and give the people one more classic
While you celebrate my life like I was Drake in Calabasas
[Chorus]
I don’t wanna die and be a nobody
Thanks for the all the nights you included me
Life just ain’t the same as it used to be
Wonder what they’ll write in my eulogy
I don’t wanna nobody askin’ “who was he?”
Thanks for the all the nights you excluded me
“Had a lot of friends” - it was two or three
No embellishments in my eulogy
I don't wanna die and be a nobody
Thanks for all those nights you included me
Life just ain't the same as it used to be
Wonder what they'll write in my eulogy
