LIFE IS LIFE Lyrics – Artie 5ive

LIFE IS LIFE Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
He’s just warming up the track, shouting out names and getting into the vibe.

[Strofa 1: Artie 5ive]
Artie kicks things off by saying he’s armed and feeling like a cowboy in an old western movie, setting a gritty and bold tone. He compares his lifestyle to that of Hugh Hefner, surrounded by women and smoking Backwoods, a popular blunt wrap. He mocks people who pretend to be gangsters but don’t look the part, while showing off his own rugged masculinity by drinking straight from the bottle. There’s a dark joke about being feared like the “boogeyman.” He talks about illegal money turning into flashy things—expensive watches, real diamonds (not cheap Swarovski), gold bars, weapons, and lots of ammo. He makes it clear that in his world, you survive by minding your own business and not expecting any favors or heroes. But if you’ve got money, anything is possible. He describes a scene where his friend needs to handle a job—do it right, clean up any mess, pay who needs to be paid, then drive off calmly. He tells his friend to just call when it’s done, but not to expect a response—that’s the sign everything went smoothly. Once it’s over, his friend can sleep easy. Artie ends the day satisfied, ready to start fresh tomorrow. He closes it all off by saying the mission’s done, flipping off the haters, hustling hard with a pimp-like mindset, always ready with weed in his head and cash in his pocket.

[Ritornello: Artie 5ive]
He’s saying life keeps moving, full of ups and downs. You mess up today, but you learn and grow by tomorrow. That’s just how it goes.

[Strofa 2: Papa V & Nerissima Serpe]
Papa V starts off chilling, watching a girl dance on a pole while he’s relaxed on the couch. He’s rolling something up big and smoking it slowly. Everywhere they go, they’re surrounded by women, living it up, while others are stuck alone, feeling down. He dreams of upgrading from a hard life to buying a Porsche, using success to escape struggle. He compares his swagger to Chris Paul dribbling a basketball—smooth and in control. Women are around, but he doesn’t chase them. He wears a heavy cross chain that reminds him of how rich he’s become. He’s pushing his lifestyle to the max—almost unreal—but still grounded in how far he’s come. He feels like he’s won at life. Then he says he and his crew are wild and unstoppable until the morning. One of them even threw piranhas in a tank—like, no chill at all. He eats at top-tier places, flexes his gorgeous girlfriend, and jokes that he doesn’t play dirty like some others. He’s wearing a full Armani suit, and whether you love or hate him, he’s too rich to care. His money keeps growing. He compares their success to flying high like kites or airplanes. He’s on a roll today, refusing to give up, always grateful, because life’s unpredictable and precious. He shouts out Artie 5ive and their crew, saying they shine like stars and live in the moment, even if it still feels unreal.

[Ritornello: Artie 5ive, Nerissima Serpe & Papa V]
They all come together to remind us that life is what it is—you make mistakes, learn from them, and move on. Every day brings something new. It’s about riding the highs and pushing through the lows, staying thankful along the way.

[Outro: Artie 5ive]
Just vibing out with the chorus to wrap it up.
