DMX - Life Be My Song Lyrics






[DMX]
Ask me if I cry
I'll tell you why I can
Come on!

[Chorus]
I'm gonna go hard
Whether I'm right or wrong
Till the dead and gone
It's on!
What ya'll really want?!
Bring it on
I'ma let life be my song
[Repeat Chorus]

[DMX]
How I live is simple
Walk through the streets
Talk to the beats
New York! I'ma eat
I never had a problem with surviving
No problem with getting down, busting my guns, or ruff rydin'
Cats talk slick but I talk slicker
My shits for real cause I'm that nigga
The reason that you hurtin' is you gotta take your problems
Straight to the lord, no body else can solve them(?)
See what I see but look through my eyes
The devil is a liar the truth never lies
We all got issues
Shit that we go thru
Shit that we been thru
Shit that we wont do
The pain that we bring upon ourself
For no reason, is the worst!
That's why I say I'm blessed with the curse
The Lord gave it all to me
And in the process, I lost my soul
Damn! the devil got a hold
In my mind, I'm like a little boy
Lost in crime
Like the healthy nigga that the devil forced into dying
The lord knows I'm trying
But at the same time
You hear the nigga with the weight of the world!
Why you gave it to Earl?

[CHORUS]

To live is to suffer
And i'm living it up
Face everyday chin up
I ain't giving it up
Cause if I aint giving a fuck
The who will?!
So I hope for the best
Knowing that its all uphill
Sometimes I wonder what's lifes about
Sometimes I wonder why I take the wrong route
Then turn around and go out
And no doubt, the fate in mine is blind
So whatever, fuck it, I'ma roll out
We all go through the motions
We get different notions
We each have our own ocean
That we can either drown or float
Like the vessels that we are
Vessels that would carry many far
Dont know what to say, when you talking
Dont know who you gone see, when you walking
If you dont know how much of what you do is dirt
3 things you dont know gonna get you hurt!

Nigga!

[CHORUS x4]

    *Do you want your song to go to waste or wake up?*

  34. j.... ....

    imma go haard on that hamp,F`it let the midlife crisis be my song. ;x

  35. j.... b....

    X way better then pac cause he lived what he writes about pac never was a thug only in his songs.

    j.... b....

    julian bishop what you talking

    j.... b....

    Dino Camdzic He don't know bruh

    j.... b....

    It's true tho pac wasn't ever a gangbanger, just another misconception of many present in this world. Are you smart enough to see past all the bs?? And are you then strong enough to assume your power through the strength of your own personality and capabilities?

    j.... b....

    Stupid coment...pac neveh have chance to become a man he died as youn guy...we never know...pac was potential like never seen after or before him...just separate two biggest and realest rappers one is dead another is still alive😉 hardest...thug life living guys with demons and fights lot of falls but both pay a price to God on the different ways.Greatest respect for pac and earl so similar in the lyrics...God sent dmx after tupac death to save us and keep rap a little bit live until now.

    j.... b....

    julian bishop You are right, he was too smart to be down with shits like that.. and when he went down he got killed.

  36. M.... ....

    pac is better, but X is second Pac

    M.... ....

    He isn't the second Pac he's the first X

    M.... ....

    2Pac is third Ice Cube and X are better then pac.

    M.... ....

    Pac is Pac
    X is X
    Stop comparing legends

  37. K.... ....

    this song one of the best of all time...touch my heart

  38. F.... F....

    when u say x is the best, No .. He still is...

  39. Y.... H....

    DMX - Let Me Fly
    good song like this

  65. m.... ....

    @nattyrussian Clearly you haven't done your homework, alot of Ems songs are serious, just look at Lose yourself, Sing for the Moment, Beautiful, Like toy Soldiers, Talkin 2 Myself, 25 To Life..

  66. b.... f....

    @ThaRealSaint5 jay z is a illuminati bitch nas is aight and eminem is a bitch now to-dmx still da best alive by a land slide

  67. i.... ....

    whatcha really want ??? bring it on!!!!

  68. j.... m....

    @Carl0sJackal i know man fuck illuminati rappers and the whole illuminati. no wonder pac and x are in so much unwanted trouble. Hey you believe in Allah i believe in Jesus Christ but dont let that cause fights. Just remember there is a God and he is the one we should praise and give thanks to and has sent prophets in different forms. God wants us to be strong in our religious beliefs no matter how hard it is. Killuminati. imma buy dawgs album the day it come out.

  69. j.... m....

    @woohoo800 notice how the true real rappers get thrown out of popularity because they get accused of some crime, or they get killed. and real songs about God and the truth are rarely to never played on mtv/bet etc.

  70. w.... ....

    @Energydrink02 Lol dude, Tupac is without any doubt the best, the hardest, and realest rapper. He was a true thug not fat liers like T.I., lil wayne, gay-z, three six mafia, and all the other commercialized new shitty rappers. All respect to DMX though, he keepin it real.

  71. A.... t....

    Real talk!!!

  72. X.... ....

    strait up he fuckin insaneeeeeee.. realist rapper out dere.. every1 elses fake niggazzzz

  73. D.... M....

    DMX you my friend man you don't know !!!

  74. E.... ....

    great respect to pac, Biggie and all/ But being Honest.. DMX is without doubt the realest& Hardest rapper!!

  75. J.... ....

    Ask me if I cry... I tell you why I can't

  76. H.... ....

    eminem songs like sing for the moment, beautiful, lose yourself are good
    but I relate to dmx more cuz its more like realistic not mainstream or commercial sounds like he was idk more passion into his music eminem got famous of commercial songs dmx is the 2pac of this generation more street more realistic whethere ur white or blk i mean DMX is the real deal~

  77. G.... o....

    dmx is real life , eminem recovery is back to the real eminem reminds me of frist album :)

  78. I.... ....

    @upsidedownphysics I disagree with that Jay-z does rap from the heart. It's just his delivery isn't as powerful as DMX or Pacs. He has deep songs like Lucky me, Song cry, theres been a murder, you must love me, december 4th, regrets, etc. He's actually better than both of them lyrically, but people only think about his commercial songs

  79. M.... ....

    dogs 4 life

  80. T.... ....

    music 2 my ears..real music by a real nigga. Be Strong DMX..keep God first brotha. Peace

  81. J.... ....

    @nattyrussian em sings about his life all the time, em brings out a stupid song first so people will buy his album and luisten to his real shit cos steven tyler told him if he has to put out a stupid generic song to make people buy his album and listen to his real shit he should. its worth it.

  82. R.... ....

    @7diamondkelly couldn't have said it better myself!

  83. t.... ....

    Spits his soul through all his music. X is a recarnation of malcom

  84. 4.... ....

    @upsidedownphysics Wurd.

  85. I.... g....

    MY POINT: he might be top 5 top 10. not many people put him in the same conversation as 2pac biggie and jayz. to me hes up there

  86. P.... ....

    @glosterfink he sold tens of millions of records, I don't think that really qualifies as being underrated.

  87. I.... g....

    i listened to this song 3 times. i hadn't payed attention 2 it b4 but it really is great

  88. I.... g....

    x is 1 of th most underrated rappers alltime. 1 of th best evr. this track produced by dame grease who is 1 of many great producer/rappers to come out of harlem ny.

  89. s.... ....

    i like 9 outa 10 of his songs on his albums

  90. T.... ....

    Pac is a great artist, but he isn't the best. Rakim for one is better, so is KRS ONE and yes DMX.

    Man I would love to meet this dude..reminds me of my father so much.

  91. G.... ....

    i love his other song let me fly

  92. E.... D....

    watch'al reallyy want? ima lett life b my song.

  93. G.... ....

    X is da best!

  94. c.... ....

    are you fucked man, infinite is probably em's best album, no need for pretty dre beats etc. pure multi's metaphors punchlines and grimey hooks
    i cant believe you would compare that to relapse, dudes crazy

  95. a.... ....

    c'mon relapse was his worst album ever... well maybe Infinite was worse but what eva... like as if he must go back - act like slimshady is back. this cristopher reefs shit, thats rediculous and kind of sad. but still gonna buy his next album and hope it'll be good. lol btw. DMX rocks specialy tracks like that (ready to meet him etc.)
