Lyrics

Intro

Ooh, yeah, huh — yeah

Verse

Late nights, city glow, mama prayin' for my soul

Used to run on empty pockets, now the pain still takin' tolls

Brothers gone, names I whisper in the cold wind rain

I count the scars like blessings, every loss taught me the game

Fake smiles, paper friends, they show up when you win

But when the sky get cloudy, they was never there again

Got kids lookin' up, so I steady change my path

Tryna break the chain, even when they call me mad

Pre-chorus

Every day’s a lesson, every night require a strap

Trust few, love strong, keep the heater under wraps

Chorus

Life's like that, yeah, it cut deep then it heal back

Life's like that, prayer up, keep the steel packed

Life's like that, one day you cry, next day you clap

Life's like that, it is what it is, that’s that

Verse

Money come, money go, but the pain stay the same

Babies need a future, that’s the reason for the game

Enemies blend in suits, they smile behind the lies

I seen snakes in mansions, I seen angels in disguise

Learned to lock my heart with the same code as my safe

If I fall, I fall for real, so I bet on my faith

They judge the chain, not the nights I slept on floors

They don’t see the prayers, don’t hear the closing doors

Pre-chorus

Took some fallbacks, turned 'em into lessons and racks

Now I move different — silent moves, silent plaques

Chorus

Life's like that, yeah, it cut deep then it heal back

Life's like that, prayer up, keep the steel packed

Life's like that, one day you cry, next day you clap

Life's like that, it is what it is, that’s that

Bridge

I prayed for better days, but I still see nights of pain

I prayed for peace of mind, but my mind still play the games

If love was currency, I’d spend it on the fam

If time could fix these wounds, I’d give it every plan

But I'm learnin' hold my head high through the storm

Even when the lights dim, I still find a dawn

Break

No cap, I keep the circle tight, we movin’ different

Count my blessings, count my losses — all in the mission

Chorus

Life's like that, yeah, it cut deep then it heal back

Life's like that, prayer up, keep the steel packed

Life's like that, one day you cry, next day you clap

Life's like that, it is what it is, that’s that

Outro

Life’s like that — ooh, yeah

It is what it is, huh — yeah, yeah
