The Price Of Life Lyrics by Lecrae Ft. Andy Mineo & Co Campbell
Yeah, fake hair, fake nails, fake pears
Call herself a Barbie wanna be a fake girl
She can't even see she Stevie Wonder at night time
Too busy trying to get them red bottoms the right size
Tell her that you love her and she gonn call you liar
Whatever you don't really love me, you just won't give me the life
On the back, but the fact is she deal with fools
I see women is garden tools, never traded the coop
She think suckers and brothers always making her sick
So she gave upon them, now she only attracted to chips
But she never seen a man when his soul is clean
He fighting to be whatever god made him to be
Don't wanna manipulate the day the leg her and shaker
Wanna give this life ,follow his creator
Maybe, she's gonna see here crazy
And start wondering god what's the reason you made me?
Baby it ain't to be psychically attractive
Just so you can trap and capture
A man that be superficially happy
Nah, you worth more than that, yeah
Beautiful lies, yeah, I know they ain't right
But I bought it
But that's the price of life
Beautiful lies yeah,
But I bought it up, that's the price of life
Beautiful lies, yeah, I know they ain't right
But I bought it
But that's the price of life
Yeah, look, I wanted a girl that was super official
I found my standard superficial
Cause behind the glamour was some super issues
And ain't trying to shoot to diss you, I'm just sayin
Everybody gotta look fly, caught the planes,
And you don't wanna step outside, looking plain
They call it run it game, everybody playin
Damn, that's trinity with the word play
Scoring made you make up your mind
Coach bags made you feel first class this whole time
And them Nike kicks running your life
Your ambition been driven by the cars that you like
I know some girls that's fast and to take none
Self esteem is low as they neck line
Cause they don't know whose image they reflect
Went to bed to find love, woke up with regrets
This is a matter of the heart kid
Give me a second, let me show you
If you on something you can depart it
You probably don't own it, it own you
Then tell me what's the price of life
Too much to find peace, so what's your release?
Yeah, it's much more believe me
To live up for the things that you're living
Beautiful lies, yeah, I know they ain't right
But I bought it
But that's the price of life
Beautiful lies yeah,
But I bought it up, that's the price of life
Beautiful lies, yeah, I know they ain't right
But I bought it
But that's the price of life
She camouflage her insecurity in Jimmie Chius
High heels, but the mountain top she'll never choose
She will settle for a dude and precious metals
A slave to his money buy his chains you can tell it
Page to ' shit that life that you really live
Them nice clothes, cover up how you really feel
When your eye' trapped in a prison with multiple life sentences
… life times' you don't wanna play your middle fingers to the better days
You ever stopped and think about what … is
Living for they approval it's got they benefits
They special cause they don't live like you
But they die and they blood bleeds red like your
Truth is they depressed, taking meds like you
They ain't living it up, they dead like you
But you can live, ah, if you know the price of life
Beautiful lies, yeah, I know they ain't right
But I bought it.
Yeah, fake hair, fake nails, fake pears
Call herself a Barbie wanna be a fake girl
She can't even see she Stevie Wonder at night time
Too busy trying to get them red bottoms the right size
Tell her that you love her and she gonn call you liar
Whatever you don't really love me, you just won't give me the life
