Hook Done closed my eyes for too long now I'm staring at the gates I know since time moved on that one day I'd meet my fate but wait Today can't be that date No way that I can delay like I do everyday and somehow show up a little bit late I'm in this mind state cuz I procrastinate And I don't know how long this grind takes for blind sakes Don't really know how this life shit relates to primates Minus the crying and the lying would have told you it's been great A lot of curves in the road but yo its straight A lot of jealous ass hoes I know its hate Dealt with lots of shit on my plate, carried every pound of my weight Whether or not I was eating, it came to BEEF I was STEAK Seldom ever got second chances, a few breaks In a search for all the answers my clues was mistakes Its like, reciting my life in the booth with six takes Too many of my DOGS were never MAN'S BEST FRIENDs more like snakes Its high stakes Hook Why must we saturate this game with massive hate and masturbate When others graduate and then congratulate that that's their fate It's not a faster wait, you only smash your face from flashing weight Making fashion statements knowing half them fakers never make ends ever meet Cuz they spend they money on the dumbest fashions every week Its always this or that about another habit when they speak Its always something negative or even tragic Some say when it comes to this spitting shit I'm sicker than Magic That's a side bar, ride wit ya dog we go ride far And plus we riding in a fly car….back on the subject Probably spent too much time round people I was taught not to fuck with Refuse to be someone that I'm not even if bitches love it Quick to criticize, come time to recognize most are reluctant Won't ever hear me say I'm the shit, I just piss in public Mis-education one must forget its time to lift above it Starting with lyrics us rappers spit and topics we discussing Think about all the advice and wisdom that your kids is trusting And then you wonder why your kids is cussing We need to give em' the vision instead of wishing that the shit was nothing Start it and finish and that's the very end of that discussion Cuz if we breed em' means we gotta lead em' Can't act like we don't really need em' cause how else we go defeat em' We gotta get BACK our SPACE I mean how else we go DELETE em' Once we gone without a trace you'll know the grace is how we freed em' Read em' Bridge: It's just one try, just one time, just one life you're given And in due time you go find that you just died for a living (2x) DYING FOR A LIVING WE DYING FOR A LIVING WE DYING FOR A LIVING WE DYING (2x) Babies crying, mothers dying, and brothers getting knocked Shit is deep on the block and you've got me locked down You've got me locked down (2x) WHAT WE DOING?
