[Intro]
Da da da da daa
Da da da d-da da, ugh
Da da da d-da da, ugh

Yo!

[Chorus]
Live my life the way I want
Do my thing, the way I want
Live my life the way I want
The way I want to, ugh!

Yo! Yo!

[Verse 1]
Mama told me I’m already rich
You don’t gotta struggle mentally over the petty shit
A lot of people acting like they tryna win a Emmy
But you always keep a smile
And they love you cus you genuine
Got that? Lil KOTA, catch me on the podcast
Too true for most, every day I be at combat
Used to spend my last 10 dollars on a dime bag
Now I’m dropping gems, bout to take this shit beyond rap
High school dreams told you all about the peace corps
Told me that they raping other lands for the resource
All about the money in the country where you free
Or you dying in the street by then hands of the police
Ain’t nothing more ironic than an African marine
On the front line fighting for the capital regime
Living in the system full demons
I be looking to the heavens tryna figure out a reason
But I never do
[Chorus]
Live my life the way I want
Do my thing, the way I want
Live my life the way I want
The way I want to
Live my life the way I want
Do my thing, the way I want
Live my way the way I want
The way I want to, ugh!
