| You used to tell me I could be whatever I believed
|
| What would I do? |
| I would like to see your wildest dreams
|
| I brought guns and them drugs to your house
|
| But you refuse and give up on me, say you never shut me out
|
| Forgive me ma, brought the fuzz to your house
|
| Got you locked under reason while the housing kicked you out
|
| I’m sorry mama, though you was tryin', mama
|
| My pops died, the streets had become my father, mama
|
| You say you failed me, that’s not true, I failed you
|
| And all that pain I caused you, ma just let me help you
|
| At the hospital, the doctor say you might not make it
|
| Aneurysm in the brain, man I could not take it
|
| But like a miracle, somehow you came up out it
|
| 5 weeks in a coma, walked up out it
|
| You still alive, so no reason for the tears
|
| We gon' celebrate now, mama love you still here
|
| I look in the mirror, I don’t see no fear
|
| I walk through the valley, and them demons appear
|
| Who said you only live once?
|
| I feel I’m immortal, I feel I’m immortal
|
| Who said you only live once?
|
| I feel I’m immortal, I feel I’m immortal
|
| Who said you only live once?
|
| We was young and dumb, but we thought we had the answers
|
| Questioning hunger, thought that selling crack would be the answer
|
| Thinking the life we live would only bring us gold and riches
|
| Dreamin' of millions, cuttin' grams on your mother’s dishes
|
| But we was blind, couldn’t see what we was headed for
|
| Catchin' cases back and forth, off to jail I go
|
| You held me down, all the money in the letters
|
| You sent me pictures of you sittin' on a Lexus
|
| My nigga made it, I was screamin' from the top tier
|
| It’s gon' be on, you would tell me when I got there
|
| But life is life, shit is crazy when it happens
|
| That nigga boo took a stand and started yappin'
|
| So now they got you in the same place I came from
|
| Roads changed, so for you I’d do the same, son
|
| Brothers for life, never change to the death
|
| When you home, we gon' celebrate it like you never left
|
| I look in the mirror, I don’t see no fear
|
| I walk through the valley, and them demons appear
|
| Who said you only live once?
|
| I feel I’m immortal, I feel I’m immortal
|
| Who said you only live once?
|
| I feel I’m immortal, I feel I’m immortal
|
| Who said you only live once?
|
| When I came into the game, I smelled like gunsmoke
|
| They had never seen a street nigga this close
|
| One look into my eyes, they knew that I had lived it
|
| When they met me, they could tell right there that I was different
|
| They knew the pain that I was speakin' had to be from demons
|
| Really seein' niggas curled up like a fetus pleadin'
|
| Man them corners light L, but we call it life
|
| 17 on trial, facin' quarter life
|
| So many nights, could’ve died but I missed Christ
|
| Who said you only live once? |
| I’m on my fifth life
|
| Put your foot inside my shoes and see how far you get
|
| We gon' celebrate now, I got more to live
|
| I look in the mirror, I don’t see no fear
|
| I walk through the valley, and them demons appear
|
| Who said you only live once?
|
| I feel I’m immortal, I feel I’m immortal
|
| Who said you only live once?
|
| I feel I’m immortal, I feel I’m immortal
|
| Who said you only live once? |
