Verse 1: Marchitect
You talking, like you're going to jump up in my coffin for me (uh)
Trying to write my life story (what)
But you ain't Pat Riley, and I ain't Robert Horry (nah)
But while you're getting up why don't you grab some water for me
If I need the true guidance then I know just where to find it (yep)
So keep it to yourself like a mime and keep quiet
Everything you're telling me to do you ought to try it
Instead of trying to criticize every little thing that I did (you know)
Cause to you my life is so appealing
Always the highest in the room like the ceiling
Fans across the land they just can't fight the feeling (nah)
So vicariously through me you're like breathing (uh)
Or did you put in the work for all my achievements (no)
When only a few loved ones believed in me
Now I got a hundred best friends really doe
It's still my life like Billy Joel
Chorus: Thurro
I'm a man, at least I try to be
Must understand what's deep inside of me
It's my life don't tell me what to do
I'll be alright, just fine without you
It's my life
Verse 2: Jas Mace
I got a question, can I live (can I live)
Can I breath, can I be a man that's free
To get up and leave, confused cause I don't have many needs (uh huh)
Can I make my own decisions without having you to please
Mrs. Knowitall, think you got the perfect life (what)
But you couple halos short from the perfect wife your attitude is trife (yeah it is)
And I can tell you're really singing the blues (uh huh)
Because you're so damn concerned about walking in my shoes
I think you should tend to your own backyard
Because your garden ain't far from the everglades in Florida
And I know you're a little dense (yeah)
So I'm a break down to you
Your own weeds are consuming you forget about what I do (forget about it)
Cause this is my life, my dreams, my lessons
My choices girl don't forget it’s my thing
Chorus: Thurro
I'm a man, at least I try to be
Must understand what's deep inside of me
It's my life don't tell me what to do
I'll be alright, just fine without you
(x2)
Outro: Thurro
I'm a man, must understand
My life, I'll be alright
It's my life
It's my life
It's my life
