August Alsina - Hell on Earth lyrics

[Intro] I'm a young n***a who just live life, I done seen so much sh** just from the very bottom And it was just always about, grindin' and gettin' it out the mud for me I just want a n***a to know what I thought, I got an opportunity It's way bigger than me cause you know God put a n***a in a position for a reason [Verse 1] I was deep like in the street life Was on my grind so I didn't sleep nights Used to push rocks out on my block Saw police lights, I heard the gunshots I had nowhere to go At the end of the road Had to do something fast Now I ain't running no more [Pre-Chorus] ‘Cause I found the light at the end of the tunnel That's why I kept my head high Instead of sellin' my faith Sittin' here wishin' I would die [Chorus] Living in hell on earth Dead last so I couldn't see first But I know it wouldn't get worse, so it only got better Better and it's getting better Living in hell on earth Dead last so I couldn't see first But I know it wouldn't get worse, so it only got better Better and it's getting better [Verse 2] ‘Cause I knew one day that life would get better Finally made a way so now it's all better ‘Cause I knew one day that life would get better Finally made a way so now it's all better, yeah [Outro] My n***a half the city mind is the only way to survive is k** And that may mean protecting myself or I'mma come up It's shoot em up bang bang on every n***a, ya dig? It's my squad against yours And a lot of n***as got that mentality thinkin' you know, that's the way to come up, that's New Orleans
