I Never Chose This Life (Remix)

Check

We live yeah?

One

Two

The James Devlin Album

Still here tryna figure it all out

Listen

I never chose this life

I was thrown into

So without an Invite

I'm just rolling through

Born green where the skies weren't ocean blue

Fed lies in the guise it was wholesome truth

Looking at the sky like come on give me proof

That I'm here by design and my life's not a fluke

Middle of a riddle that can never be solved

Where I'm at, I'm sorry if my attitudes rude

Sorry if I never am the man I should of been

Sorry if I never am the man you should of seen

I never chose this life long cold kiss here

Weeping like a Willow in the valley by the stream

Tyrants and terrorists, vanity and greed

Money over everything insanity I plead

I feel like I'm hemorrhaging

I need to be freed

It's dark, but I look into the night and I scream

I never chose this life I live

This life chose me

Look in my eyes and it's pain that you see

Cause you don't ever wanna cry like me

I never chose this life I live

This life chose me

Look in my eyes and it's pain that you see

Cause you don't ever wanna cry like me

Didn't wanna let me go

Didn't wanna let me breathe

Only wanted me to stay

Didn't wanna let me leave

This hell hole is lonely

And you only wanted me when the snakes bleed

Didn't wanna let me shine

Didn't wanna give me time

Didn't wanna give me help

Oh, this is my life

To the whole world welcome

Take a look inside these dogs eyes

Here we go again, it's the same old shit

Same old story

Same old script

Same jealous face

Same hating pricks

Same dirty clothes

Same hoes with dicks

Here we go again and they're robbing all the kids

With black gats and bats

And it's here where you live

And then I fall deep in a slumber

It's then you rise

'Cause you bring the thunder

I never chose this life I live

This life chose me

Look in my eyes and it's pain that you see

Cause you'd never wanna cry like me

I never chose this life I live

This life chose me

Look in my eyes and it's pain that you see

Cause you'd never wanna cry like me

Cry like a baby

I'll rock you to sleep

With some highly disturbed lullabies by me

I'll tell you not to ever be advised by sheep

All following eachother to the slaughter dead meat

I'll tell you not to ever take a man at his word

His words like human life it's dead cheap

Don't slip or slide in shits creek

Pick a team

Keep the real ones close 'cause shits deep

Well how the fuck can I be giving advise

Ain't as if I'm in the know at no particular time

I know nothing

Everything's a glitch in my eye

Don't wanna die but it's lonely in this prison of life

Sometimes when I lie with this flickering light

To keep badness of bay in the middle of night

I think that's why I was chosen

Give me a sign

I'll make you all feel better while I wither inside right

I never chose this life I live

This life chose me

Look in my eyes and it's pain that you see

Cause you'd never wanna cry like me

I never chose this life I live

This life chose me

Look in my eyes and it's pain that you see

Cause you'd never wanna cry like me
