AINT LIFE FUNNY

Lyrics

[Intro – half-spoken, dry, almost amused] Yeah… Look at this… Ain't life funny? [Hook] Ain't life funny, I was broke, now I'm sittin' on a brick Same ones that ignored me, now they tryna get a fix Paranoid, every shadow lookin' like a snitch Ain't life funny, I'm still here, still dealin' this shit Ain't life funny, count the money, then I check the door Trust nobody, not the ones I used to call before Same block, different watch, still the same old war Ain't life funny… I've seen it all before [Verse 1] Started with a twenty, turned it to a zip Now the scale never sleeps and my phone never quit Every call sound the same, "you got that hard?" I keep the real ones close and the rest on guard They see the chain and suddenly they soft Yesterday they laughed, now they textin' "you free tonight?" I don't even answer, just leave 'em on read Paranoia in my chest like a second head I hear footsteps in the hallway when the house is dead Check the peephole twice before I go to bed Ain't no real friends left, just faces I remember Same ones that switched when the money got better [Hook] [Verse 2] I done buried two partners, one went to the feds One took a bullet over debt that wasn't his I still see his mama at the store, can't look her in the eyes So I move in silence, phone on airplane mode Every new face feel like a setup in the cold They still callin', talkin' "I been thinkin' 'bout you" Same ones that ghosted when I couldn't come through I keep my circle small and my pistol closer Life keep playin' games, I'm just tryin' to hold my composure Look in the mirror, same eyes, different numbers Ain't life funny how the hunger make us hunters [Outro – same dry tone as intro] Yeah… Still here. Still laughin'. Ain't life funny?
