Huey's song "Glad 2 Be Alive" is a reflection on his journey from a difficult upbringing to success. He thanks God for a better day and finding a better way to make money without resorting to drugs or violence. He remembers the violent and dangerous environment he grew up in, with shootings, fights, and gang ways being a regular occurrence. He realizes that if he were still there, he may have been caught up in the crime and violence that still plagues the area. Now that he has made it out, Huey acknowledges that there may be people who are jealous of his success, but he is proud to have his homies on his side. The chorus, featuring T-Pain, reflects on the sentiment that even though things may not be perfect at home, it still feels good to be alive and away from the negative influences that once surrounded him. Overall, "Glad 2 Be Alive" is a triumphant celebration of overcoming adversity and finding a better path in life.
