Hell on Earth - Rezz

I'm a young nigga who just lives life I done seen so much shit just from the very bottom Love is just always above me Get me out the mud I just want a nigga to go with I thought I got it out the jungle It's we is bigger than him As you know, God put me on a position for a reason I was deep like in the street life Was on my grind do I didn't sleep nights Used to push rocks out on my block Saw police lights, I heard the gunshots I had nowhere to go At the end of the rope Had to do something fast Now I ain't out of my mind 'Cus I found the light at the end of the tunnel That's why I kept my head high Instead of sellin my faith Sittin here wishin I would die Living in hell on earth They lied so I couldn't see at first But I know it wouldn't get worse so it only got better Better and it's getting better 'Cus I know one thing – the life would get better Finally made a way so now it's all better 'Cus I know one thing – the life would get better Finally made a way so now it's all better A nigga help city, mine is the only way to survive is kill And that may mean protecting myself Or I'mma come up and shoot em up bang bang on every nigga Ya dig? It's my squad against yours And a lot of niggas got that mentality Thinkin, you know, that's the way to come up That's New Orleans

And here's my stop, just drop me off And I'll walk the last few hours of night Missing sacred things I had to Leave behind, to solo travel light I suppose we'll see, start again where we Left off, I can't see how We can ask the past to take us back But it won't, we're too far gone now Some other world, some other life Some other place, some paradise My fortress made of paper walls And my defenses had to fall Some other world, some other life Some other place, some paradise Somehow the years drove us apart I never could protect your heart Some other world, some other life Some other place, some paradise My fortress made of paper walls And my defenses had to fall Some other world, some other life Some other place, some paradise Somehow the years drove us apart I never could protect your heart Every word I say sounds world away From where on earth you've gone A facade, it cracks, like a plastic mask When we talk of moving on I suppose we'll see, start again where we Left off, I can't say when We can ask the past to take us back But it won't, I'm not that girl I was then Some other time, some other time Some other world, some other life Some other world, some other life Some other place, some paradise My fortress made of paper walls And my defenses had to fall Some other world, some other life Some other place, some paradise Somehow the years drove us apart I never could protect your heart, heart, heart, heart Some other world, some other life Some other place, some paradise My fortress made of paper walls And my defenses had to fall Some other world, some other life Some other place, some paradise Somehow the years drove us apart I never could protect your heart
