Put It Right

by Dot Rotten

on Throwback Music (2013)

[Hook:]
This is what it's like
When you're living life
When things are going wrong
But you think they're going right
Everything's okay when your money's high
But when the money's low there ain't nobody by your side
When you're living life....
Things be going wrong best make sure you put them right
(When you're living life.....)

[Verse 1:]
Listen, the truth talks and a lie mumbles
Respect to those on road that's tryna make their grind double
They said that I worship the Devil and I like trouble
But I've just been through hell and back and that's why I'm humble
Unlike the rest of them, I've been through a divine struggle
My career was feeling extinct, hidden inside rubble
But I ain't stopping (why?), I'll never be fossilised
If I'm back from the ages, watch this skeleton find muscle
Doubling this cash just to flunk it in a splash
When people see you're making it then they'll hurry to your flat
Thinking money is attached, and get comfy in their act
Eating all your food, smiling, thinking you're buddies and it's cas'
But it ain't, that's the sign of a snake
That's the type that'll hate you and stare and smile in your face
See what you have and take what you have or try to be brave
If time is a blade then this script I wouldn't try to escape
It's fate

[Hook:]

[Verse 2:]
Let me make an announcement
I should date an accountant
I get paid when I'm pouncing
On that stage where there's thousands
Of people raving and bouncing
Till they race to their houses
Then I'm waiting around with
All this pain that I've founded
Stress is a huge killer
I wanna do bigger
Cause I could end up in the gutter
If my views differ
People wanna be in your position
So they move with ya
Just to try and take what they can get
Before the true picture
It's revealed
You'll be asking yourself is it real?
Looking at people around you
And all that it's giving chills
When Drake said "who the f*ck are y'all?"
Trust me that sh*t was real
Way too many people appeared that were never in the field
Because this is what it's like
When you're living life
And you ain't made it to the sky
But you've got your image right
Never fall into depression
Find a room to sit inside
And even if I don't make it
At least you know a n*gga tried

[Hook:]
