about
Talented emcee, Lee Ricks is keeping a fast and furious pace with his forthcoming project BEATS FOR BREAKFAST with avant garde producer BigBob. The latest track LIFE’S A BITCH is LR’s, vivid description of realistic experiences and worldviews, dense with wordplay and imposing delivery. There is so much imagination and purpose in LR’s language and nothing diminutive about the sharply written prose, substantial in syllables and parading in imagery. BigBob highlights LR’s wit by creating a mellifluous sound that soothes and hypnotizes seamlessly.
lyrics
Verse 1 (LR)
Kill me or let me be free, one or the other/
Can't you see that we don't see eye to eye with one another/
Holdin' me back, while I'm tryna get ahead/
N its time's like these I wanna drop dead like Fred/
Instead, spark another L to the head/
Spliffs twisted lit get lifted/
Grab the microphone n pour a drink two fistin'/
The streets are bleedin' ?, now so are my eyes/
N as the time fly's by with the day's of our lives/
I kick back, relax, life I analyze/
I bin tryna live in peace but I can only fantasize/
Cuz, she like the devil in disguise/
Holdin' me down I can't move I'm feelin' paralyzed/
Wouldn't believe the things I've seen thru this pair of eyes/
Tryna survive in a life I can't justify/
Nah I can't escape she always right at my side/
I cant lie...
Hook (LDontheCut)
Verse 2 (LR)
I cant resist I get pissed when she act like a itch/
Like every time I get ahead she thro me back in a ditch/
I wish, she would jus let me sit back n get rich/
Cuz yea wouldn't it be nice if life was jus like this?/
I'd be chillin' on a beach witta drink n a spliff/
But uh, yo, you know, life's a itch/
She kick me when I'm up then she kick me when I'm down/
She make me think I'm doin' good b4 she kick me to the ground/
I take 1 step forward like I took 4 back/
You think I'm gonna giv up? n cook more.... ??/
Nah, I'ma bad mutha.../
Smoke more grass on a Friday then Chris Tucker/
Straight from the gutter prolly neva get rich/
I'll prolly neva have much ta pass down to ma kids/
- It is what it is that's the life that I live/
N even tho life's a itch I give it all I got ta give/
