Andy Mineo - The Price of Life lyrics

[Verse 1: Lecrae] Yeah, fake hair, fake nails, fake pearls 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 gonna call you a liar (Whatever, you don't really love me, you just wanna give me the lie) On the bet, but the fact is she deals with fools That see women as garden tools, never treated them cool She said that s**ers and brothers always makin' her sick So she gave up on em now she's just attracted to chicks But she never seen a man with a soul as clean He fightin' to be whatever God made him be Don't want to manipulate her, date her, lay her, then shake her Wanna give his life to her followin' his creator Maybe she gonna see he ain't crazy and start wondering "God, what's the reason you made me? " Maybe it ain't to be physically attractive just so you can trap and capture A man, that'd be superficially happy. Nah, you're worth more than that, yeah [Hook: Co Campbell] Beautiful lies, yeah, I know they ain't right But I bought it, but that's the price of life [Verse 2: Andy Mineo] Yeah, look I wanted the girl that was super official I found my standard superficial Cause behind the glamour was some super issues And I ain't trying to shoot to diss you, I'm just sayin' Everybody gotta look fly, call em planes And you don't wanna step outside, lookin' plain They call it running game, everybody playn' Dang, that's trinity the word 'play' Sephora made you make up your mind Coach bags made you feel first cla** this whole time And them Nike kicks running your life Your ambition been driven by them cars that you like I know some girls that's faster than Tech N9ne Self esteem as 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 heart, kid Gimme a second, let me show you If you own something you can't depart with You probably don't own it, it own you Man, tell me what's the price of life Too much to find peace, so what's your release Yeah, there's much more, believe me Than living for the things that your leaving Preach [Hook] [Verse 3: Lecrae] She camouflage her insecurity in Jimmy Choo's High heels but the mountain's top she'll never choose She'll set up for a dude & precious medals A slave to his money by his chains you can tell it Page to embellish the life that you really live Them nice clothes cover up, how you really feel When your eye liner off and you've been revealed Trapped in a prison with multiple life sentences 55 life times as infinity, you don't wanna pray your middle fingers to Divinity You ever stop and think about what the incentive is Livin for their approval has got it's benefits They special cause they don't live like you But they die and their blood bleeds red like you Truth is they depressed, takin' meds like you They ain't livin' it up, they're dead like you [Outro: Lecrae] But you can live, uh If you know the price of life [Hook]
