1999 by Ivo Impreso Lyrics
(Chorus)
I say
Goddamn what a life
Goddamn what a life
What a time to be alive
We just trying to survive
Everybody just trying to survive
Trying live a life
I say
Goddamn what a life
Goddamn what a life
What a time to be alive
We just trying to survive
Everybody just trying to survive
Trying live a life
(Verse 1)
1999 a legend was born
I burn the motherfucking roof whenever I hit record
And when I step in the booth best know its over for ya'll
Come on and step in my shoes, you wouldn’t like it at all
Nah, nah, nah, I don't want your pity
I want all the cash you can give me
All the cars and the jewelry
All the houses you can give me
I want all the ice and the Gucci
All the cream you can give me
Fuck attention, i doing this for the love of the music
I do this for the hell of it
Lotta people doubted said that i could never ever do it
Well I'm out here doing it
I paint pictures with potent poetry powerful and passionate
Pass me the bottle and I'm chugging it
Never sipping it, better hold me back before I lose it, never had a car see me riding in the public
One with the people I'm never above it
I spit on the mic just because I love it
The art and artistry in the music forever has me
Peace and positivity to everyone who hate me
(Chorus)
I say god damn what a life
God damn what a life
What a time to be alive
We just trying to survive
Everybody just trying to survive
Trying live a life
I say
Goddamn what a life
Goddamn what a life
What a time to be alive
We just trying to survive
Everybody just trying to survive
Trying live a life
(Verse 2)
Whole damn world up against us
They never gave a flying fuck about us
Another momma crying on the street begging for money to give her son something to eat
God damn what the police doing?
Shooting down every fiend in the street
Taking their life by the feet
Blood on the concrete
Where the fuck is the peace
I'm out here screaming God please
Have mercy (have mercy)
You got money for guns but can’t feed the poor
You got no time to help but got time for war
I got a few questions and then some more
Like why do we abuse our women and we call them whores?
Suicide’s at an all time high
Life so bad that people would rather die
God damn what time to be alive, what a time to be alive
Its a wonderful life, what goddamn lie
(Chorus)
I say
God damn what a life
God damn what a life
What a time to be alive
We just trying to survive
Everybody just trying to survive
Trying live a life
I say
Goddamn what a life
Goddamn what a life
What a time to be alive
We just trying to survive
Everybody just trying to survive
Trying live a life
I say
Goddamn what a life
Goddamn what a life
What a time to be alive
We just trying to survive
Everybody just trying to survive
Trying live a life
I say
Goddamn what a life
Goddamn what a life
What a time to be alive
We just trying to survive
Everybody just trying to survive
Trying live a life
