Race Against Time |
In my race against time I can’t stop |
Runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
Even if I’m gettin' too hot |
I’ma keep runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
In my race against time I can’t stop |
Runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
Even if I’m gettin' too hot |
I’ma keep runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
God, why the hell am I here? |
Is it a blessin', or a painful lesson of life and its directions? |
Date of conception, two twenty-nine |
I was birthed and won’t be denied |
Look into these eyes and witness lives tragedies |
The boy who made slaves out of men, that’s me |
For every lock, there’s a key |
The only thing that ever made me click was cash money |
So that I lust for |
Be it one of my deadly sins |
You know the seven, that I got all of them deep within |
Sometimes I slip, but you be there to pick me up |
Down I’m on my knees like what’s up |
Cause only in a world that’s corruptin' the sick |
Could you dare to look at my life and call it innocence |
Got me to a better sense, cause what’s yours is mines |
Hear me, Lord, I’m runnin' out of time |
In my race against time I can’t stop |
Runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
Even if I’m gettin' too hot |
I’ma keep runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
In my race against time I can’t stop |
Runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
Even if I’m gettin' too hot |
I’ma keep runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
Nobody cry for me, cause I |
Wanna see you smile for me when I die |
Look through my windows to the soul |
Tell me if you see Ja livin' to grow old |
Cause too many niggas done died for what I hold |
The talented warmer world, which is so cold |
Take me, save me, before I’m crazy |
The only reason I live is for my baby |
Never did you tell me that, life ain’t a game |
Maybe if you told me this, shit might be changed |
But now, I’m just racin' against time tryin' to survive |
And see why, y’all niggas drive over nigga’s vibe |
If you gonna live, know you gonna die |
If you gonna steal, know you gotta lie |
Get drunk and stay high |
Don’t de-nigga-ny |
Cause they’ll never take me alive |
Feel me, Lord, I’m runnin' out of time |
In my race against time I can’t stop |
Runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
Even if I’m gettin' too hot |
I’ma keep runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
In my race against time I can’t stop |
Runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
Even if I’m gettin' too hot |
I’ma keep runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
I fears no man, but when its time to go, I’m gone |
Racin' through the darkness, learnin' what’s right from wrong |
Lookin' for the light, but all I see is the night |
When everything else is bright |
What happened to my life? |
Is this what I am? |
Is this what I’ve become? |
A nigga that don’t give a fuck about nothin' and no one |
Cold, even though I gotta burnin' desire |
Within my soul I must set this whole world on fire |
If I control my destiny, maybe one day |
I’ll give this world the best of me |
You know I never been one to judge right or wrong |
I embraced and showed you love |
Then I throw slugs at the other side |
Go get 'em in broad daylight |
What a nigga would give to live my life |
You don’t want it, cause if you could get it you would try |
Feel me, Lord, Ja has arrived |
In my race against time I can’t stop |
Runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
Even if I’m gettin' too hot |
I’ma keep runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
In my race against time I can’t stop |
Runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
Even if I’m gettin' too hot |
I’ma keep runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
In my race against time I can’t stop |
Runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
Even if I’m gettin' too hot |
I’ma keep runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
In my race against time I can’t stop |
Runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
Even if I’m gettin' too hot |
I’ma keep runnin' through the red light, livin' my life |
