deep green - how we living lyrics

[verse 1 + deep green]
now how the f+ck do i begin to start?
letting you feel all the pain i’ve got within my heart
around here, fam the winter’s harsh
you turn your back on your yutes then your kids are gone
then your kids are gone
mummy left a n+gga for dead so i don’t miss my mum
and to my eldest little sister, look i miss you lots
and even though i don’t come around, it’s you i’m thinking of
i wonder if my pops is thinking of
all the things he sacrificed for him to bring me up
i couldn’t act right, rolling with a bad mind
i bet it broke him if he thought it wasn’t him i loved
i’m so sorry for that, i was a horrible lad
and from the bottom of my heart that’s my apology dad
i never meant to treat you that way
and imma make it all up to you, i promise you that
i used to think “f+ck school, f+ck college and that”
i was thinking bout food, you know shotting and that
too stubborn for your advice
if i could take it all back i’d be following that

[hook + deep green]
let me tell ’em how we’re living
let me express my pain on the riddim
nothing but the truth imma give ’em
roll up your zoot, listen
let me tell ’em how we’re living
let me express my pain on the riddim
nothing but the truth imma give ’em
light up your zoot, listen
[verse 2 + deep green]
let me elevate and get away to a place that’s a better place
i’ve got mad love for my dead estate
january the first, i’m liquored up at lester’s grave
ain’t come to celebrate but i’m in the graveyard buss
struggling to light my spliff up in the heavy rain
i’ve got my eyes closed, i’m bout to meditate
i’m asking “why’d your body and soul have to separate?”
my thoughts in pieces, imma talk to jesus
while i’m staring at your face like it’s the mona lisa’s
got me thinking that i envy death
cause it’s the only time that we’re close to freedom
what’s the point to life?
learn from your mistakes to get old and die
can’t remember the last time i avoid the crime
but f+ck it, my head, imma hold it high
i’m kinda p+ssed at the fact that the good die young
so we live to be, live to be bad
on the strip flipping them packs
i was sixteen when i first had to grips me a strap

[hook + deep green]
let me tell ’em how we’re living
let me express my pain on the riddim
nothing but the truth imma give ’em
roll up your zoot, listen
let me tell ’em how we’re living
let me express my pain on the riddim
nothing but the truth imma give ’em
light up your zoot, listen
[verse 3 + kase]
let me tell ’em what i’ve gotta say
shout out my homies that are locked away
i’m smoking on that dr. dre
and imma tell ’em what we’ve gotta say
it’s like i’m struggling to deal with my anger problems
and every night my thoughts are drowned
by the sound of nonsense
the weed kinda helps me navigate without a conscience
i’ve also come to realise i’m running outta options
matter of fact, on two fingers i can count my options
they both include a side of me i don’t let out that often
every night it’s like my family ask about my problems
i look ’em in the eye and say i’ve got no answers for ’em
but sometimes i wish that i could take a minute too
explain to ’em all the bullsh+t man are living through
i know i made mistakes, i know i’ve been a fool
i chose to play the game and made some silly moves
now i’m paying for it, living off this prison food
but prison only makes you stronger darg, i’m living proof
i tell my girl i love her, give her a kiss or two
then sit and watch her as she exits the visit room

[hook + kase]
let me tell ’em how we’re living
let me express my pain on the riddim
nothing but the truth imma give ’em
roll up your zoot, listen
let me tell ’em how we’re living
let me express my pain on the riddim
nothing but the truth imma give ’em
light up your zoot, listen
[verse 4 + kase]
it’s like i hear myself arguing
with myself, in my head it’s like i’m bargaining
with myself to stop myself from getting charged again
for selling drugs but what the f+ck, times are hard again
but all i know is what i know so imma start again
next thing i’m airing shots on heeley city farm again
i try and cover up the stress and go out partying
but sure enough it’s like i’m stepping in the dark again
and then it’s like i take about ten steps
it gets cold and suddenly i can sense death
i sit and tell myself “i’ve got a couple friends left”
on every anniversary of my friends’ deaths
i mix the drinks with the drugs till my head’s wrecked
i sober up and then i deal with the next stress
there’s so much feelings i wanna express
but they say that some secrets are best kept
