Survive Lyrics by Childish Gambino
All I wanna do is
All I wanna do is survive (All I wanna do is ooh, ooh)
But the weather’s always changin’
I’m just tryna save my life (My life)
My life (My life)
My life (My life)
My life
It’s a new verse with my old flow
It’s a new world and an old one
I was 17 back in ’01
Now I’m forty-teen, havin’ no fun
Man, I shake some on a livestream
In the summertime, buy this ice cream
But it melt fast, close your eyes and enjoy it and it might last
Have a role in a movie but he typecast
He on Drink Champs talkin’ with a shot glass
It be like that
Hey, I’m a soldier
When I die, say I did it for the culture
But I live below your means, that’s a pro tip
‘Cause the streets pay a nigga like a slow drip
I’m with my son, watching Bluey like we both Crip
They be scared to try, saying that they underground
Made him hunker down, saying he a prepper now
Had a crazy arm, picked him in the second round
Tore his AC hiking on the second down
Made a comeback but ain’t nobody checkin’ now
He ain’t stick around, yeah
Summer’s always comin’ (Summer’s always comin’)
All I wanna do is get high, get high
But the weather’s always changing
I’m just tryna save
My life (My life)
My life (My life)
My life (My life)
My life (My life)
When a girl can’t get thicker (Like that)
And the house can’t get bigger (Like that)
When you high, but you drink liquor
Feel like life go a lot quicker
How he lame but he that—
Be in the minor leagues, but I’m pro-black
I bet he hate his mom, how you know that?
You got a podcast ’cause you can’t rap (Like that)
He on some fresh ‘n’ fit shit, talking body counts
I count a body every time I’m on tracks
Like that, ay
Summer’s always comin’
All I wanna do is get high, get high, get high (All I wanna do it get high)
But the weather’s always changin’
I’m just tryna save my life
My life (My life)
My life (My life)
My life (My life)
How come every summer
Everyone
Always says
That it’s never gonna end
Every summer
Everyone
Hopes and prays
That it’s ever gonna end
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la (oh, yeah, yeah)
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
My life (my life), my life (my life)
Get high (get high), get high
