[Verse 1: L.I.F.E. Long]
Ayyo, the puzzle fell. I’m picking up pieces. E.T
Lost on Earth, following trails of Reese's
Alien irregular percent, not hearing or seeing
I’m a different, out-of-this-world being. The spaceship
Been landing. Seeing objects slanted ‘cause people be
Sideways, crooked, and twisted, animal-type behavior
My city’s a wild zoo. Lions, snakes
And monsters that’ll eat you. The other half vultures
Waiting to devour after. Those, the ones in air
Hovering haters. Served, yeah, I’ll spit food like a disgruntled
Waiter. Not later—now. I’m early with a verse
Snatching a worm. Crack of dawn, arrive first
Made it, survived through experience and worse, although
Good times through the beautiful struggle
Building with the armed militia, cyphered in a huddle. Storm
Clouds pouring. Move forward knee-deep in puddles

[Hook: L.I.F.E. Long] (x2)
What was before? Past. The present came after
Living in the forward—some say, “Future”
We’re searching, looking for answers, new ways how
To operate, communicate, function in The Now
