Lyrics to Dead Or Alive
I think they want me dead or alive
Flow immortal though I never could die
But forever I'm fly
Quit the pills, they was gettin' me by
I know the truth, they been tellin' me lies
That's why I barely could cry
Heaven sent, you see the Hell in my eyes
Tryna balance out the demons, feelin' leveled inside
I see street dudes with bodies go and tell on the guys
Just buckle up 'cause it's a hell of a ride

Yeah, drinkin' on the stoop as a youth, was a misfit
Sped kids spazzin' in my school was a statistic
Got a second chance, said I'm a fool if I risk it
Don't wanna let my mama down but dudes be on some bitch shit
Ask about Millyz, he just said I go ballistic
All these broken dreams feelin' nobody could fix it
Faded in the park off of dark got me twisted
Depression passed down from my pops, it's a sickness
My closest homie died at sixteen, I was fifteen
I just seen him layin' in his casket with his kicks clean
Buried him in J's and when they carried him away, I couldn't even shed a tear
Sittin', starin' in his face thinkin' I know I'ma be next
School life, I reject
I was knee-deep when they ain't even get they feet wet
Months passed, I'm sellin' crack runnin' from the detecs
Drinkin' Paul Masson out the bottle 'cause I be stressed
Ascended to my higher being, tired of seein' trauma
But my people back home keep comin' 'round me with that drama
Gossipin' about shit I don't ever wanna speak about
Sometimes I feel like stayin' in the crib because the reaper's out
Mama tried to keep me in the crib but I was sneakin' out
Baggin' up a busy in my bathroom 'cause the geekers out
Servin' all my neighbors, I was tryna pull some sneakers out
They heard about me 'round my way with music, I was beastin' out

Um, when I met Millyz, um, he was talkin' to me
His mother was on his back 'cause he was-he had a lot of traffic in these streets out here
You know, he was a little younger than me so I didn't exactly know what it was
But I remember when I got him a job, that's the thing he asked me for
And, like, within that first week I got him a job, they tried to run down on him and-and they were shootin' at him
And that's when I realized he was really into some different things

Yeah, back to back cases, stood trial, only mama there
No one in my corner but them Perkys and Coronas
Opened up my eyes and it turned me to a loner
Fightin' like I'm grown at seventeen but I was grown-up
Fuck the whole industry, I made up my mind
Chasin' record deals is wastin' my time, I replace it with grinds
Before it's over, do my thing for the city
They don't appreciate what I bring to the city, but it's cool though
I still sat around with that pole in my pants
And I blow like a new rapper blow his advance
Keep my goals to myself, no one know all my plans
I seen them Percs had my bro in a trance, it's time to switch up
Starin' all my demons in the face, I never bitch up
Life hit me hard, knocked me down, I'm tryna get up
The same ones that said they never change, I seen 'em switch up
Now I'm on these stages and they lit up
Blanco

Think they want me dead or alive
Think they want me dead or alive
Think they want me dead or alive
Think they want me dead or alive
I think they want me dead or alive
Flow immortal though I never could die
But forever I'm fly
Quit the pills, they was gettin' me by
I know the truth, they been tellin' you lies
That's why I'm here for you
