fan 4ever Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 Verse 1 Lil Bob only 16 years old A bad day, he’s feeling blue and cold Disappointed in the world Just broke up with his girl So he decides to borrow his dads shotgun Went to school and started squeezing it for fun He’s an angry kid, he has no way out He’s playing God, that’s what makes him so proud Thinking about what his dad always said Late at night when he was crying in bed I can’t believe your such a loser, you’re not my sun He pulls the trigger, an other bullet leaves the gun His white shirt slowly turns red The last bullet entered his head He’s laying on the ground, flat on his back Doctors try to save him, but it’s to late, he’s dead Who would have thought lil Bob would flip Over some bad greats and a wackass chick What if he pulled it together, we’ll never know Life’s a bitch, but we knew that though Chorus Life’s a bitch, it is what you make it Life’s a bitch, if it ain’t yours then don’t try to take it Verse 2 Lil Jessica out in the club Just gave her boyfriend his last hug It’s 1 o clock and she’s going home All of a sudden 3 punks won’t leave her alone She knew one of them was a rapist But she wished he was only after her paper Before she knew it, it was to late These dudes where laughing while she got raped One of the dudes started to penetrate Her life flashed before her eyes, from now till 88 It was over, they slit her throat Felt the blood flowing and then started to choke Who ever thought she would die so young Killed by a couple dudes who were high from a blunt Cops never found those punks Case got closed after 12 months Why didn’t they just leave her alone Yo, it’s motives unknown Chorus Life’s a bitch, it is what you make it Life’s a bitch, if it ain’t yours then don’t try to take it Verse 3 Lil Tim, bored in class Thinking about yesterday and that pound of grass Got it from an ex-con Today he’s buying xtc and a gun Timmy and friends out in the streets Started fronting on a couple geeks Started fighting, so T pulled the nine Dudes head and the nine on the same line He thinks quick and drops it Gun on the ground, he’s a proud kid Drops the drugs and his image to Looks in the mirror, I don’t know you Vatos Locos, that stuff was done Never liked hustling, never had some fun A couple days later, drama in the hood A couple dudes did a drive by shoot Timmy got hit, 5 times in the face Just now, when he was looking at better days They shot him when he started 2 grow Like I said, life’s a bitch yo Chorus Life’s a bitch, it is what you make it Life’s a bitch, if it ain’t yours then don’t try to take it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iceonly Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 (edited) Man pretty hard lyrics. But Life's not a bitch. Man I like the lyrics, but gotta keep your head up... even when the road is hard, never give up.. Don't look for freedom and happiness outside. Take a deep look and you will find it inside of you.

bigted Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 It's not as great as the OG by Nas "Life's a Bitch" but it's dope though, great storytelling there, all 3 stories could really happen which is sad but true, it makes u think.

mfuqua23 Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 All three storys dealt wit death of youth. U could vary the subjects of the song. Quite real. Almost like "Teardropz & Closed Casketz" - 2pac & Outlawz. It'z a nice read. Could definately have a great listening presence. Good job. :thumb: Keep it Up.

3cookies Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 (edited) [font="Arial"][color=blue]HEy fan4eva...I loved all three pictures you painted in your piece!!! All of them touched my heart...makin me think, its really sad that stuff like this really does happen... You put it all together real thorough and its deep. The chorus is cool too and for some reason I would like to see 2 more lines added as positive reenforcement along the lines of people thinking before they act... but its real good just as it is...i gotta read alotta other rymes on the board later tonite too... peace, 3cookies [/color][/font] Edited September 15, 2004 by 3cookies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigted Posted September 16, 2004 Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 That's what's so great about hip-hop, reality gets expressed so well through lyrical expression, and I was listening to Grnadmaster Flash and the Furious Five "The Message" and it still relates well to what's going on today even though it came out over 20 years ago, we need more songs like this to bring hip-hop back to where it needs to be!
