1ndxgolegacy - Health Is Wealth Lyrics

It was the start of 2017 when I couldn't breathe
January hit me hard February caused a scene
I was having palpitations in the second week of March
Then on the 16th I had tubes in my heart
I was minutes away from Heaven cause I'm stubborn as Hell
Treating pain like a fairy tale. Handled the pain in my chest
With a bench press, big mistake couple days and I was breathless
Climbing up the stairs like it's Kiliman
Had my mother scared it was killing man
Thought I had Type 2, see her say I told you
All that sugar isn't good, you ain't listen like you should
I had to call my job daily to let em know
That I was ill another day and I was staying home
Same story different day man it was getting old
Until I got replaced in a heartbeat
Tired eyes cause I couldn't sleep
Getting skinny cause I couldn't eat
Dizzy cause I'm sipping air like it's Henny through a straw
Maybe I'd have got better sooner if I ain't ignore

Health is wealth so you better pace yourself
Health is wealth so you better pace yourself
Health is wealth so you, health is wealth so you
Health is wealth so you better pace yourself

Health is wealth so you better pace yourself
Health is wealth so you better pace yourself
Health is wealth so you, health is wealth so you
Health is wealth so you better pace yourself

It was the start of 2017, my whole room was a mess
I wasn't where I wanted to be, happiness was a memory
Staring into space feeling out of place
Acting hella fake man I had toothache
I was biting my tongue not tryna talk
About the pain I would pray that God would
Take me in my sleep
A foolish failure at 23 tryna compete with
All the bruddas I went uni with that got salaries
Mama ain't even seen in her lifetime
No wonder she cause a scene when she see me write rhymes
There's yutes all up in the streets battling knife crime
I could've been in the courts trying to fight crime
But I was struggling to find time to make the applications pop
Everyday unfortunately you ain't got the job
Apparently I was picky and maybe I should've just been
A bit less reserved, like I was scared to make my way to work
I had a vision of success brewing in my stomach
That I hadn't even tasted, desperately tryna make it
Woke up every day feeling like the week's been wasted

Health is wealth so you better pace yourself
Health is wealth so you better pace yourself
Health is wealth so you, health is wealth so you
Health is wealth so you better pace yourself

Health is wealth so you better pace yourself
Health is wealth so you better pace yourself
Health is wealth so you, health is wealth so you
Health is wealth so you better pace yourself

They told me to sign the dotted line
In case I didn't make it out alive
And in the blink of an eye I had a shift
In my whole paradigm
What's money what's fame what's success
Tell me what's love, pain, what's priceless what's change
Tell me what's family, what's blood what's choices
Tell me is it still the same if they ain't notice
Would you pull the plug and quit the game and
Feel hopeless, would you start to pray less if I'm gone
Is God still good if I die before my time
Or Is He now a fiend spending every second
Tryna end my hopes and dreams
Trust me when I say it man this life ain't what it seems
I was at peace man I got a second chance to live
Watching two litres of blood flow out your heart can give
A valid reason to forget the flaws you cant forgive
Light a candle up in every place where darkness is and just
Breathe
You ain't gotta do nothing else just
Breathe

Health is wealth so you better pace yourself
Health is wealth so you better pace yourself
Health is wealth so you, health is wealth so you
Health is wealth so you better pace yourself

Health is wealth so you better pace yourself
Health is wealth so you better pace yourself
Health is wealth so you, health is wealth so you
Health is wealth so you better pace yourself

Aite Listen, Pay attention everyone in the world
High and low rich n poor listen for my words are wise
And my thoughts are filled with insight
Why should I fear when trouble comes or hide when
Surrounded by my enemies. They might trust in wealth
And boast of great riches but can't save themselves from death
They can't bribe God when their time is up
Cause no one can ever pay enough to live forever
And never see the grave. The wise, the foolish
The senseless will all die the same leaving their
Wealth behind the grave is their eternal home
They can name their estates after themselves but
Their fame ain't gonna last. Like animals
They all pass away, like sheep they are led to the grave
Where death will be their shepherd
But as for me
As for me
As for me God will redeem my soul from the power
Of the grave, For He shall receive me
