Ja Rule - Against time lyrics
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 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 it's directions? Date of conception, two twenty-nine I was birthed and won't be denied Lookin' 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, and I got all of them deep within Sometimes I slip but you be there Pick me up, now 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 whats yours is mine Hear me Lord, I'm runnin' outta 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 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 n***as 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, sh** might changed But now, I'm just racin' against time tryin' to survive And see why y'all n***as drive over n***a'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-n***a-ny 'Cause they'll never take me alive Feel me Lord, I'm runnin' outta 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 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 fear's no man, but when it's 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 n***a that don't give a f** 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 slug's At the other side, go get 'em in broad day light What a n***a 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 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 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
