Lyrics and translation

Original

Ooh-ooh

Huh, huh, uh, uh (808 Mafia)

Huh, huh, uh, uh

Huh, huh, uh, uh

Barely holding on, this life gets scary as it goes on

Burdens while we carry on, I ain't perfect, spare me if I'm wrong

Hope my secrets get buried when I'm gone

Staring at the writing on these headstones

They keep on tryna tear me, but I'm strong

That's what you wanted to tell me all along

Ain't hard to figure him out, 'cause all his thoughts were tweeted

We blew some shots to shut him up, that's why his top was leakin'

'Cause I ain't never seen a nigga from his coffin speakin'

We pick that nigga off, he ain't think that we saw him creepin'

Sometimes I miss the days when me and bro was off it, tweakin'

I hate September 18th, 'cause that's when we lost a demon

Why do the real ones always leave? That's what I get exhausted thinking

Can't be ungrateful 'bout this life, you know we fall to see it

I'd rather you hate me while I'm here, than love me when I'm dead

They sent that text that Twinnem checked, couldn't stomach what I read

Like, life's been pushing me too far, and now I'm stuck on the edge

Don't wanna party, I'll stay in this lonely room instead

And I'm just

Barely holding on, this life gets scary as it goes on

Burdens while we carry on, I ain't perfect, spare me if I'm wrong

Hope my secrets get buried when I'm gone

Staring at the writing on these headstones

They keep on tryna tear me, but I'm strong

That's what you wanted to tell me all along, oh

Death in the air, that shit I'll leave you with a chilled spine

Even though my spirit's down, like, I'm okay, I feel fine

Shots from that steel nine, ain't from that hillside

I'm from the trenches where they murder just to kill time

A heavy heart, eyes rollin', through dark times, soulless

Sorry that they took your son, I'm sending my condolence

Gotta face the facts when the truth unfoldin'

I hope you know this, that I'm just

Barely holding on, this life gets scary as it goes on

Burdens while we carry on, I ain't perfect, spare me if I'm wrong

Hope my secrets get buried when I'm gone

Staring at the writing on these headstones

They keep on tryna tear me, but I'm strong

That's what you wanted to tell me all along

Ooh, there's a power in your soul

Ooh, and I wanted you to know
