Half Alive - Willis

I try to keep it solid at least half the time

But I’m out my mind and time is slowly passing by

And some nights i wish that i would fall and have to die

Cause either way I’m really only half alive

I lit a fire cause I had to see

Walkin thru the smoke, couldn’t breathe

How I’m coasting up over most, close to the ghost when I wrote every quote,

Jesus goes to his knees

They was listening to god but they didn’t know

How they really know he got it if he livin low?

I was there on college avenue and I did the most

Broke but it was anything goes for a lil dough

Ken Griffey, ken griffey max 1

We was jiggilatin at the arsenal

Colored conscience never black and white but I be half alive and got a heart of

gold

The root is strong inside my garden, hoe

I see ya seeds but how’s ya harvest tho?

All of my people go hussle, in some shape of form, almost up but we started low

We was dead but now we living again

I come to the garden while living in sin

I’m out for dead presidents, get dividends

Was in a rut and now I’m in it again.

Fuck

Here I go.

soul shift from high to another low

Freeze up, now the current flow, never ease up, I be in the water getting lost

in the undertow

Hate needing money but I love the dough

Cash out on new kicks so I can run it tho

Flash back, college ave, couple months ago

I was in harmony, told my baby I would never go

And away I went

Nothing solid bout the days I spent.

After that, cause in the aftermath

There wasn’t nothing in my soul and that’s a fact, but I try to keep it solid.

I try to keep it solid at least half the time

But I’m out my mind and time is slowly passing by

And some nights i wish that i would fall and have to die

Cause either way I’m really only half alive
