Life,
It cuts through you like a knife
And takes you down while in a disguise
You try your hardest to fight
With no-one by your side
All you want to do is fly
Fly to where you will never be found
While everyone is still on the ground
Fly to that one guy
Who holds you while you cry
Even after yall fight
He'll never walk out and leave you to die
Life it cuts through you like a knife
But all you can do is try to survive
