Il testo della My life (cradle 2 the grave)

Verse 1 (foxy):
From the cradle till now still fox just a little more mature/ seen it with my bare eyes did it all before/ been through hell on earth playin' out my role i was given since birth receptin' it well/ go hard at them critics they expect me to fail/ work hard for my fans they expect me to sell/ they suspect i'm livin' well but they don't know the pain i feel/ 5 minutes away from gettin' killed it's ill/ my moms always hug me when i'm leavin'/ i wake up cryin' 'cause death bugs me when i'm sleepin'/ jam master died it's like i ain't done breathin'/ big and pac gone and look we're still beefin'/ it's uneven we at odds in these days when niggas died over cars and they chains/ i thank god that i'm saved i hold it down in this game now from the cradle 2 the grave
Chorus (althea):
From the cradle 2 the grave i wish i knew my life would end up bein' this way
(x2)
Verse 2 (foxy):
From the cradle till now i been through it ya'll/ you don't know half the things i been through it dawg/ pain and sufferation i been through it all/ my heart still cold i been through the storm/ confused all these years/ shit we grew all these years i remember me and you on the stairs/ talkin' 'bout what we gon' do when we big/ money came into play and best friends went they way/ shit i wish it never had to go that way/ the price of fame could cost a whole friendship/ sure we got dollars but it's senseless/ so i pray to god for forgiveness and ask him to carry me through/ all the stress and drama in this business/ i bare witness i fox will keep goin' strong until my heart stops/ will keep flowin' strong with a rap poncop...come on
(chorus (althea))

Bridge (althea):
As a little girl/ i wish i knew that i/ would be goin' through the drama that's in my life/ all the suffering/ everywhere i've been/ how i get myself in all this bullshit i'm in
Verse 3 (foxy):
From now until the grave i look back in my life/ i smile and say wow in amazement/ all these roadblocks wonderin' how did i make it?/ wonder how i 'came famous/ i'm impressed with me, it's like rumors been obsessed with me/ but the truth never told it was left with me/ and what's left for me is to extend my hand/ if they don't reach then i let them be/ i gotta live my life right but i wouldn't change how i live my life like/ if i could live my live twice/ ya'll don't understand what inga's life's like/ a black girl's stress i turn my back to the world and now i'm back to the world a black girl's blessed/ yeah my fans held me through it/ i was destined to blaze from the cradle to the grave/ thank god my fam helped me through it, come on
(chorus (althea))
