Gotta keep my head , never get that low 
Cause I'm living this life, now it's all I know 
Like oh 
It's the life I chose (This life, this life) 
So I keep a step up everywhere I go 
Now they screaming my name after every show 
Like oh 
It's the life I chose (This life, this life) 

One life, one choice, gotta do it right 
One chance of proving to the world that you was right 
Like a match waiting for a spark to ignite 
Sitting and mimicking, thinking if you'll make it through the night 
And rise up like a phoenix, flying through the night 
I shine once like a shooting star losing sight 
You see, man, the difference between you and I 
Is Imma keep doing what I do, cause it's do or die 
Ain't got no time for that not getting big game 
Got one life, living mine in the quick lane 
I'm too hungry not to get that win, but I just gotta remember one thing 

Gotta keep my head , never get that low 
Cause I'm living this life, now it's all I know 
Like oh 
It's the life I chose (This life, this life) 
So I keep a step up everywhere I go 
Now they screaming my name after every show 
Like oh 
It's the life I chose (This life, this life) 

I wasn't born with luck, had to make my own 
Success was my only option, that's the way it goes 
And I've been focused, always keeping it on track, yes 
It's been a fast road, but I ain't crashed yet 
And Imma smash those who say I'm past tense 
My time is right now, and it ain't passed yet 
And I'm just trying to see my name in the lights 
Waking up in a different city every day of my life 
Like, so consumed, wrapped up in this rap game 
At the illusion, the stats and the facts change 
I'm too hungry not to get that win, but I just gotta remember one thing 

Gotta keep my head , never get that low 
Cause I'm living this life, now it's all I know 
Like oh 
It's the life I chose (This life, this life) 
So I keep a step up everywhere I go 
Now they screaming my name after every show 
Like oh 
It's the life I chose (This life, this life)
