What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I don't regret nothing that I have ever done
2
At this point I don't owe nobody an explanation
3
Man, they love you when you up
4
Kick you when you down
5
Look around, VH1 man, where are they down
6
Life is amusing, nobody like to see you cruising
7
But everybody like to see you losing
8
So I stop despise, on top of lies
9
And if it prophesied I'll be ostracized
10
And one day, I lost my rhodium on the day I hit the podium
11
Now I'm back on top and salty like sodium
12
A gift to this world man, wrap me with a ribbon
13
Why do you look for a dead among the living
14
Some thought I was crazy, some thought I was dissing
15
Some said I was lazy, some said I was different
16
I was so loaded, that everybody floated
17
But once I got the notice then I got focused
18
And then I saw the motive, so everybody rode it
19
So I did the way wrote it and live it the way I quote it, come on
20
Gotta survive in this life that's being given to me
21
When it seems that the world keeps crushing on me
22
When I'm down at the back, just keep it real
23
Gotta survive, gotta survive
24
Gotta survive in this life that's being given to me
25
So I try and I try to be really true
26
When it seems that the world keeps crushing on me
27
Gotta survive, gotta survive
28
Hold up, trying to tell me what I'm not
29
Pull up in the 'Bach, now I'm all of the sudden hot
30
Now they want to stop just to look at what I got
31
Thought they want my home man, left me out to rot
32
So I had to make it on my own, take it on my own
33
I wanted out the hood I had to 'scape it on my own
34
Believe me now, it's easy now
35
'Cause everybody see me now and I'm on TV now
36
But it started out with low budget
37
Then I took it around the world the folks love it
38
In the beginning man, my life it was so rugged
39
But now I shine like a gold nugget, 'cause I made the most of it
40
I know how you feeling man, I was weary
41
Some days I used to sit there, my eyes all teary
42
Thinking to myself, do anybody hear me
43
Now I know, you making it out is not a theory, come on
44
Gotta survive in this life that's being given to me
45
When it seems that the world keeps crushing on me
46
When I'm down at the back, just keep it real
47
Gotta survive, gotta survive
48
Gotta survive in this life that's being given to me
49
So I try and I try to be really true
50
When it seems that the world keeps crushing on me
51
Gotta survive, gotta survive
52
I've been laughed at, talked about, ridiculed
53
But I got a Bentley and I'm still not a bitter dude
54
And you know it's not coincidence, that me and you is not so intimate
55
I can't fake, I don't shake, I don't break
56
I don't lose, I don't use, I don't groove
57
I never lacked and I'm never going back
58
I'm nothing you ever sorrow
59
I'm telling you that I'm immortal
60
Gotta survive in this life that's being given to me
61
When it seems that the world keeps crushing on me
62
When I'm down at the back, just keep it real
63
Gotta survive, gotta survive
64
Gotta survive in this life that's being given to me
65
So I try and I try to be really true
66
When it seems that the world keeps crushing on me
67
Gotta survive, gotta survive
68
Got to, got to survive
69
Keep your head held high
70
Got to, got to survive
71
Keep your head to the sky
72
Got to, got to survive
73
We can make it every time
74
Got to, got to survive
75
Gotta survive, gotta survive
76
Gotta survive in this life that's being given to me
77
(Yeah)
78
When it seems that the world keeps crushing on me
79
When I'm down at the back, just keep it real
80
(You know there is nothing in this world)
81
Gotta survive, gotta survive
82
(That could separate me)
83
Gotta survive in this life that's being given to me
84
(From what I believe
85
So I try and I try to be really true
86
(from what I've achieved)
87
When it seems that the world keeps crushing on me
88
(All of this is because of him)
89
Gotta survive, gotta survive
90
(And I'm telling you now)
91
Gotta survive in this life that's being given to me
92
(As much as you all don't want to hear this)
93
When it seems that the world keeps crushing on me
94
(I could do nothing to myself)
95
When I'm down at the back, just keep it real
96
Gotta survive, gotta survive
97
(It's all through him, it's all through him)
98
Gotta survive in this life that's being given to me
99
(So all around the world)
100
So I try and I try to be really true
101
(You don't even know success)
102
When it seems that the world keeps crushing on me
103
(Until you know him)
104
Gotta survive, gotta survive
105
(And him is Jesus)
