Édith Piaf
La Vie
Hook

See, i was dreamin
Bout the 67 Cadillac leanin
Candy paint drippin
In the Sun gleamin
Bending corners round the block wit my team /
I spin it round & whip it 1 mo time
Yeah, I was dreamin
I had to fall, get back up
Like a season
I wa trippin, but I got it
Believe me

Verse
Believe me, i need edith on this
See, this story sticks with you
Till you leave
So while you here, I need you when I vent
Sending a message to all of my kinfolk
I wanna be here for all of the events
But the way the system is set up
Is one of the reasons why I'm on defense (the-fence)
& I swear it's all my fault
La vie is unpredictable
& that means "life" in french
Living in this is being a miracle
So, this 1 right here's a toast
Finally got perspective
Respect yaself enough now to ease up on manufactured pressure /
Had to get better
Had to let it go with a letter...
Said it since "7th"
Never gon settle
Fck it, I'll just win in the 11th
Watch me knock it out the park
GOD, I love this universe
I'm just tryna play my part
2nd hook

La vie is such a beautiful thing
I got a feeling
Appreciate breathing
Good evening
& if you don't feel me...
I feel 4 u
I pray 4 u
I'm saying too
La vie is the only one you got
So get back up if you stumble
It's easier said than done, I know
But. LA Vie is...

Verse 2

Its politics
Its complicated
Its connections & nepotism
Its sponsorships
Its algorithms
Its attitudes & long division
Its sht that's pointless but its beautiful
Its bout the vision
Its bout who you wit & how you attend
All of these social functions
Its bout what u drink
How many of them?
Its bout how you come in...
Its bout all of the moments witnessed
It's so you'll listen
Its splendid
It ends & then its tragic
Its interesting
So, its imperative you understand
That it ain't all sunshine & daisies
These blessings come in bands
For some of us, but not all
I had a dream we would ball
Ima still get it all
Even when my back on the wall
La vie is but a dream
Or so they say I see reality
