Crazy

Define “crazy” 
— Spittin’ crazy rhymes 
All the time 
People live, then they die 
I live to live life
 
My whole life is a fight 
I’m just tryin’ to survive 
Tryin’ not to do more time 
Fighting the good fight 
Fighting for my life
 
You only live once 
And I’m giving it all I got 
Define “crazy”

Am I crazy? 
Why, ‘cause I rap for a living? 
And pay attention to politics?
I live to live life
Fighting the good fight
