Testify Lyrics by THREE FIVE

2020

I swear realistically
So many things
So many things
Got me tired
Tired of life
Tired of this game
But I rather do this than anything
Anything in the world

I rather rap than to
Pay bills and die
We all got a purpose
I’m tryna live mine
You can’t take your job with you
When you die
We only got one life
Let me testify

I rather rap than to
Pay bills and die
We all got a purpose
I’m tryna live mine
You can’t take your job with you
When you die
Its only one life
One love testify

Ye and Common let me testify
Upon this mic
I know the feeling
And this feeling kind of right
I ain’t forcing myself
To make another song
I’m a late millennial
That been rhyming for too long
I see this game and admittingly I fear
If I’ll make it or not
Though I really don’t care yeah
I got to curate
The best rhymes possible
I’m an MC that been responsible
From my days
At Georgia State
To right now
I can’t throw away these dreams
I got to do it somehow
I got plans lIke BIG did on intro
Ain’t no success on the job
The shit be moving too slow
You supposed to work Til 65 please
What you think I look like
Getting down on my knees
That’s how I feel about the system for real
It always got to be a white nigga
Sealing the deal
This world set up
You better find your place in it
Cause if you don’t
Somebody will I’m going
For the kill
You can’t make me put this down
If you tried
My rhymes real sort of like they
Got mob ties
Most of what we heard was lies
Thats why we rebel
Every generation got another story to tell
Like how they grew up
On Mike or Pac
Or how respect was once a thing
But now the shit done stopped
Its a crazy world
You know
I feel at this stage
I got a lot to show
And prove till I can’t no more
Though if I’m alive
I see a better version
Of myself for sure
Maybe with a little girl or son
Running up to hug dad in Jamaica’s sun
That’s my vision I’m a live it before I go
Some niggas live they whole life with nothing to show
I rather rap than to pay bills and die
See I got to be myself
This what I’m bout to imply
You only get one life
And that’s it
Fuck a after life I’m living now
And I’m tryna get rich
I truly hope you enjoy my music
Education for the working class
And I’m hoping they use it
Even Malcolm had to use
Mics to reach the people
Let it be known
We’ll never be equal

I rather rap than to
Pay bills and die
We all got a purpose
I’m tryna live mine
You can’t take your job with you
When you die
We only got one life
Let me testify

I rather rap than to
Pay bills and die
We all got a purpose
I’m tryna live mine
You can’t take your job with you
When you die
Its only one life
One love testify
