Life Away - Tona

Yeah, yeah this feeling like poetic justice

Poetic justice this probably the first time

In life I’m saying these feelings in public

What if I just happened to love it

Waking up every day to that bottle

Some say it’s an antidepressant

Bet I feel better tomorrow

Up on the east side of Chicago

Where I seen all of my action

Developed my taste in fashion

Flashing every day out of havoc

Every week was out in that club life

Held a gun in that thug life

None of that was for me

But I still act like I condone it

Mama I know you see me making that news

That wasn’t your proudest moment

Just wanna see you smile

Never ever had to deal with no trial

Cause all you want is some grandkids

Me to walk down the aisle out with

Somebody I love

Never giving up on your son

Feel like I’m drinking my life away

Smoking my life away

Fucking my life away

Still hold on to them brighter days

Had me working my life away

Slaving my life away

That feeling of just giving your life away

That gave me a share all I’ve touched

It’s been a decade and some now

After all of these women

I realize she my first love now

But we was in high school

Was thinking too young how

Am I gon' show you love

That I’ve been looking for all my life

Cause it’s not something I know

Don’t even get that at home

Or anyone around me at all

My phone ring less in the morn'

Once I heard that you mom passed

All I wanted to do was come find ya

Let you know you not alone

Sometimes that call a reminder

Me and my new girl just fighting

It’s like we just hate each other

Hate myself when I’m with her

Hate myself when I’m without her

I keep in touch with my niggas

Let them know I’m ready for war

See that’s that feeling I want

But I never get it from y’all

Y’all rather party and bullshit

Next thing you know we all gone

Saying shit like man I miss them

We ain’t on this planet that long

To anybody out there that’s listening

Just hear me out through this song

Don’t wait till somebody gone

For you to love them that strong
