robert ivory - life of the party كلمات الأغنية

[intro]
it’s after hours at that glamorous night spot
and they’re taking it easy, swapping personal experiences
let’s listen in america today

[chorus]
life of the party, could’ve almost died
life of the party, could’ve almost died

[verse 1]
december 2019, it was the day of my birth
we had just finished dessert
proud to be sittin’ with ya, proud to be visiting ya
i was chillin’ with my mom that i ain’t seen in a year
that night we popped a few cassettes into our vcr
the tv’s on, dim the lights to watch the life of robert ivory play from start, the baby talk
made me thank the lady that raised me in fight or flight alone
drove for five hours a day while prayin’ for child support
cam recorded, storyboard imported to the present day
crawlin’ past the madness, full of laughter, had my momma’s face
smilin’ past the sadness of the past but full of passion to
move to different states to raise that child into the man that you
hear today because god allowed that man to survive
no other way to describe the way that day had played out
let’s rewind, let’s rewind…
[verse 2]
the final tape started, 2003 at the bottom
time flyin’ by like our rookie in gund arena
i see a young kid in cle lookin’ back at me
we share the same eyes, but our smiles don’t seem to match to me
my mother’s on the tape, i watch her ask about my age
as i was sittin’ in the present, h_lla jealous of the grin
i haven’t seen since i was a kid
emotion goes from sad to shocked
after my taped response was watched
there’s no coincidence
after my 3_year_old self was asked how old he was
he smiled at the camera and relayed the age that i’d become
jaws dropped, tape stopped
we rewound it a couple times to make sure that we had heard it perfectly
why was father time observin’ me?
i’d get my answer shortly after i turned off the adapter that was set up on the countertop
tape finished, placed the cassette back in the case
that’s when i saw a familiar face
a skeleton with a scythe inside his hand  and he striked
behind my shoulder  i might not make it out of this fight
i can’t inhale anymore, my feet ain’t touchin’ floor
momma runs to door
i’m growing wings, i can soar

[verse 3]
was near impossible, we made it to the hospital
dyin’ in the waiting room while no one bats an eye at you
tryna catch my breath, but death was steppin’ on my chest
thought my life was over ’til god told me it ain’t time to rest
i meet the doctor and he told me that my lung had just collapsed
and doin’ surgery would work the best
i had a flight the next day, so i had told him just that
his face was showin’ concern until he said:
“if you took off on that plane, you would’ve been dead
the pressure of the altitude would’ve crushed those brittle lungs
an angel’s watchin’ over you, this ain’t luck”
spent 4 days in icu, almost as painful as love, yeah
like mewtwo in that pool of fluids
tubes protrude out through
my back and ribs  coagulants above my abdomen
and out of consciousness from opiates
chills run down my veins like russell gamed it for lakers
god, i thank ya
[outro verse 4]
now i can breathe in peace
sleep through a pleasing dream
no evil appeasing me
don’t matter if i lost a quarter of lung capacity
still make ’em gasp in awe
75% to use, but i give double that
on every track, even the scr_pped ones
that’s how i roll, ’cause i know my life ain’t everlasting
that’s why i chose to pick up this mic
explore my passion  grow to push it past the masses autographin’ my captions, signed by hands of god
devil on your favorite rapper’s mind, and they can’t tell you why
rappin’ like they off a gram of fent in icy pentagrams
talkin’ like they straight, but sit in meetings gettin’ bent by men

[outro]
i’m takin’ over
the life of the party ’til i almost cried
the life of the party
