Scared to Live Lyrics by ILISH

Anticipation (Deluxe)

2022

Sometimes
I'm scared to live
Cuz dare I dream
Of bigger things
People find the negatives
And ways to Write me off
The script
I guess I'll freestyle
Living on the edge
Dust off any dirt
That's on my name
From any word
You said

Cuz I've been
Way way way to focused on the top 5
Only looking out for mine

Assignments are pending
Working on completing
Got breath in my lungs
I ain't defeated
Pleading to Jesus
The thorn in my flesh
It got me bleeding
Patch up the wounds
Then I'm right back to it
New content
Only right I influence
I can't be a Judas
Acting so foolish
When I think
I know it all
That's when I'm stupid
Grace from the King
Cannot abuse it
Been on the brink
Don't wanna lose it
Can't be extinct
When the sequel's in heaven
Trial and error
Yet I keep on failing
You gave demonstrations
Hard for me to imitate it
Longing the sweet sensation
Of Liberty I wanna feel it
And smell like the fragrance
Too long I've been the hostage
In my own mind
Been my own captive
Oh my oh my
Don't wanna fumble the bag
When I'm in my bag
I got a son
Who looks up to dad
I got a wife
Who's real gourmet
She my dessert
She more than a snack
Let me catch my breath
Agh Agh
It's bout time
I start reflecting
Then maybe gain new perspective

Loosen the grip
Certain things
Can't prevail
The road to the
Top is narrow
Only a few ever made it
If you talking dinero
You Keep all them dollars
I hustle with pesos
The Red & The Blue it
Gave me the seasons
To make it like hero
6th of the year of
The year
The court go in shambles
Give me the shot I
Shoot it like bam does
No first impressions
Chip is encrypted
You won't understand it
But give it a shot
And maybe you'll get it
I gotta ride for my people
I gotta for the city
Who witness the come up
No body believed me
I keep it like Cole
I rock with my dreamers
These People deceiving
All of my trophies
I got em with God
No nobody was with me
Had to get real with
My myself
Had to look deeper
Have to come closer
With all my fears
Came in 07 to nothing
Hunger and passion
Was all I was gifted
When many had talent
Doubled the working
To make enough progress
That's me being honest
Back where I started
If felt like the rumble
With all of them giants
One of a few
Blood is too different
By 21 was already a savage

Sometimes I'm scared to live
Sometimes I'm scared to live
Sometimes I'm scared to live
Sometimes I'm scared to live
