Krayzie Bone - One Life lyrics

All you get is one life one chance n***a you don't get no advance One past so you better make it last young man But your decision was to move with the criminals do what the k**ers do Follow the leader is what n***as do At minimum little n***a you're penitentiary bound Or worse in a hearse just another mystery now He wanted to be a young thug a young thug He wanted to get rich quick so he slung d** You know the story everybody want that gangsta's glory They wanna ball they want it all they brain distorted Until the Feds hit em and then that's when they vision gets clearer The man in the mirror done figured out that life is much realer Police scream freeze you pull your pistol and you squeeze Cop dropped to his knees you drop your 40 then you flee Now the whole precinct chasing behind him He better keep running cause if they find him they gonna remind him n***a die die n***a got you bucking and ducking 100 miles and running they coming you better keep stompin' Don't stop and think they bluffing cause they gonna lay you in a casket Blast past your head while you dashing through the alley Running for cover there's hella helicopters that hover Another brother to f**ing tell the coppers we don't love em Empty your clip while you jumping the fence All of the sudden you get hit and you remember [Chorus] 2x All you get is one life (One life) One life (One life) All you get is one life (One life) So you best just live your life Right [Verse 2] Hey young world You're just a young girl Already somebody baby momma the dumb girl That's in and out of all the players' ride letting all the players ride That's how she chase that paper (paper) 13 going on her 4th abortion no remorse for orphans Of course the question is you must don't really love your life Your mother must have never loved you right she said that daddy only hugged at night When he was high but mama didn't care She needed you there just to receive your welfare Heard she got a new boyfriend she call him daddy But I knew the time exactly when he pulled up in the Caddy But hey what did she expect she met him on the Internet Let me guess “Baby I can make you a star” But then he said “b**h better have my money” And all your dreams turned into a nightmare (nightmare) The light's there (light's there) Right there (right there) Too late for you to wake up and to figure out this ain't the life that you want [Chorus] 2x [Verse 3] Toil in the jungle too far from a coffin Who can you call when the heart has been darkened and murder's the only option Nobody care if you're living or breathing No one was there is the number one reason you thinking of leaving Even smoking weed sippin on Hennessey tryna ease the pain The yak attack the brain get you amped and past insane You believing thinking you ready to die better off dead than being alive Use your head that's the devil telling you lies eyes on your prize Better not let these demons catch me sleeping believe me they creeping Now it's the season to pledge your allegiance This ain't your real life got just a little while longer So fix your life and stand stronger I (I, I) I don't wanna die (die, die) You don't wanna die (die, die) I don't wanna die (die, die) [Chorus] 2x [Outro] Yeah Forreal man I'm tryna live TL That's right You only got one life to live And these are the days of our lives (lives, lives)
