Songtexte

At the ripe age of 24, I done seen it all, done it all
Some dreams stay fresh and some must fall
Dealin' with time, winter, spring, summer, fall
It's crazy changes, it's hits that made me famous
I come a long way from Timbs, minimum wages
Stocking caps, summer jobs, pockets flat
It's funny how my childhood idols now be coppin' crack
I ain't knockin' that, unfortunately
Life's too short to see, it's only right we move accordingly
At every second, I used to carry heavy weapons
Previously cocked, tucked in my shirt, for every session
But hold up, the 2-to-6 bid made me grow up
Came home to the same damn dreams with no luck
And half the clique's strong, the other half moved on
Some with new lives and new wives, **** live long
The foulest thing about time, it still ticks when you gone
For those who live the way that I live
We came a long way from wipin' coal out of eyelids
To rap's hottest, smokin' lye lit the track goddess
'Member back then before MAC-10's, expensive bottles
Had a sick mind, **** taught me how to get mine
We'd often sip quarts, they get tossed at the spit line
To all **** that the Lord seemed to dip for they time
While we plan to live forev', he had a different design
Is it safe to say, we all perish on a sacred day?
With my luck, soon as I reach the gate they make me pay
Pray, minutes go by, indigo high
The specialist, decked out, dark specs, finessin' it
Used to play catch and kiss, same girls back then now
Leave us messages, a whole lot
Travel to my old spot, where we sold rock, although it's trifle
Ain't nothin' changed, just like time, it's all a cycle
Yo, wake up to the world, stay in charge of your dreams
Keep your vision focused, get wise, enlargin' your cream
Marketing schemes, so many in the dark is unseen
Caught in between, perhaps rap was the fortunate thing
Forced to be keen from hustlin', supportin' them fiends
Bustin' guns, I had no remorse as a teen
Rockin' birthstones, my first little bid, nursed the dome
It hurts the zone, now I realize I'm on this Earth alone
Time ticks, devilish minds design trips
Leave you blind quick and cause you to die behind shit
Mathematics, master 120, I'm Asiatic
Amazed with magic 'cause it's illusions that made me savage
Life change once you establish the right game
Love the night rain, found a new way to fight pain
Clocks never stop, it's all a race to the top
Tryin' to freeze time, that's why I ice the face on my watch
