Alive 'til I Die Songtext
von e-dubble

I′ma talk that shit, why? 'Cause I′m alive 'til I die
Hands in the sky 'cause I′m just so high
Drink beers, why? ′Cause I'm alive ′til I die
Life's too long, give the kids a couple years
Get ′em high, why? 'Cause they′re alive 'til they die
They never gonna live if you never let 'em try
Get ′em high, why? ′Cause you always tell 'em lies
Fill up a cup of somethin′ stupid, and we sip it 'til it′s dry

Redundant, rhetorical, rhymes metaphorical
Carbon and borium, science is adorable
When humans are babies, they're really just trainees
Figure out the hustle so they don′t seem lazy

Crazy and desperate, lookin' upset
Always let shit go 'til it turns to a mess
It′s fucked up and painful, them little things change you
Chained to the common definition of an angel
You never gonna make it, just accept it
So you tryna live a life where you don′t regret shit


Movin' rocks to the top of a mountain, just to throw ′em back down
And when you get knocked down, pull your ass back up, life's tough
But that ain′t no reason for cheatin', fake freedom, keepin′ them heaters tucked
In your tool belt, if you really wanna be rough
Figure out how to squash pride, even a punch can give you jail time
That's why I studied up
How to live life between the lines 'til Armageddon comes
If it does, scratch that verse, I will have guns
Mad Max′in motherfuckers ′til the spaceship comes

I'ma talk that shit, why? ′Cause I'm alive ′til I die
Hands in the sky 'cause I′m just so high
Drink beers, why? 'Cause I'm alive ′til I die
Life′s too long, give the kids a couple years
Get 'em high, why? ′Cause they're alive ′til they die
They never gonna live if you never let 'em try
Get ′em high, why? 'Cause you always tell 'em lies
Fill up a cup of somethin′ stupid, and we sip it ′til it's dry

When the sun goes down and the girlies get dressed up
I′m dressed down with my homies, gettin' messed up
Pregame, prefame, so we drink shit beer
But I guarantee you gonna hear about us this year
Six white boys tryna make noise
With enough street cred that we could sleep with toys
I′m not Mike D or Ad-Rock
But while it's safe to bet we can be your hip-hopper


Ugh, like my name is Frank White
My guttural noises have got you sayin′, that's tight
I slap a hater like my name is Bob Knight
And with a hand this big, you'll be sayin′ goodnight
Goodnight to the dicks, O′Reilly and Imus
Hip-hop lives and you'll never outshine us
Flip-flop kids, with our hookah′s and binders
Backstreet peeps and the D-boys like us

That's a cool group, and we′re a sweet team
And if you really like us, you should join the street team
All you gotta do is send me an e-mail
With a poorly-drawn picture of a naked female, and you're in

I′ma talk that shit, why? 'Cause I'm alive ′til I die
Hands in the sky ′cause I'm just so high
Drink beers, why? ′Cause I'm alive ′til I die
Life's too long, give the kids a couple years
Get ′em high, why? 'Cause they're alive ′til they die
They never gonna live if you never let ′em try
Get 'em high, why? ′Cause you always tell 'em lies
Fill up a cup of somethin′ stupid, and we sip it 'til it′s dry

Hip-hop is good, I'll Tupac your hood
With "Thug Life" on my belly 'cause I signed with Suge
Not really, but my feeling is I probably could
′Cause I could serve Snoop at rappin′ and at fatherhood
No disrespect meant, no disservice done
Just nervous lip service from a disgruntled dunce
I walk through the valley of the shadow of life
Realized I gotta spit 'cause I′m really too nice

Hidin' talent from the masses
Reclusive Marshal Mathers is a sin
But I′m an Atheist, so you can do the math
Addition of the shit, and calculus might be a bitch
If you master binary, then you're gonna be rich
Control the fuckin′ robots, master all the pop songs
People in your pocket prayin' that you last long
2008, they been hidin' they faith
When the real deal shows up, they′ll hate on the fake

Hypnotized too long by the loudest hammer
The kick and the snare mesmerized like Obama
The can-speak scares peeps like Osama
Think without re-pub that we gon′ get hammered
It's all intertwined, and all on the line
You can buy the used book and still read it just fine
Politics is entertainment, the music is politics
But it′s all bullshit, so please don't follow it, come on

I′ma talk that shit, why? 'Cause I′m alive 'til I die
Hands in the sky 'cause I′m just so high
Drink beers, why? ′Cause I'm alive ′til I die
Life's too long, give the kids a couple years
Get ′em high, why? 'Cause they′re alive 'til they die
They never gonna live if you never let 'em try
Get ′em high, why? ′Cause you always tell 'em lies
Fill up a cup of somethin′ stupid, and we sip it 'til it′s dry
