LIFERS GROUP - One Life To Live lyrics

rate me

What's your problem now is facing all of us right now

It's not a black problem

It's not a white problem

The problem is a social problem that's been here a long time

So take advantage of life cause you only got one life to live

Take it from Maxwell #66064

You don't wanna end up in here for the rest of your life

I used to be quick to pull a trigger and kill a nigga

Snatch up a cutie, knock the boots and go diss her like a gold digger

Go round every night, ran the streets like a red light

You couldn't tell me nothin, I was (too damn hype)

Lack of a mad trap and constantly stackin and packin

Cause where I'm from accidents just don't happen

Living in the fast lane, full speed ahead

I had kegs of juice and niggas wanted me dead

But not the G, so I kept a low pro

So I was determined not to end up with a tag on my toe

Then word got around, I was scared and went underground

Bull(sshhhh..) now how the hell does that sound?

I got the crew with the quickness

And with the swiftness we took care of business

Killin nigas on sight with no hesitation

At once we didn't slow down for smoke inhalation

Pollutin the atmosphere as we painted the block red

Bodies lied dead that was stil full of hot lead

[CHORUS]

Check it out sisters, you got (one life to live)

Check it out fellas, you got (one life to live)

Don't sell drugs cause you got (one life to live)

Don't go to jail cause you got (one life to live)

Just take heed cause you got (one life to live)

Everybody, you only got (one life to live)

Neighborhood villain revealin, my nine was meant for killin

I bust a cap in that ass, ha-ha, what a feelin

So never give in, my livin was never: beggin, given

Cause as a baby my ribbon was stamped: 'go to prison'

So pass the buck up, stuck up or fuck up, blew a truck up

How could I luck up, suck up, my mother put her foot up

My life was coolin and coolin, smokin a fast turnin

I seen the 5-0, being the motto: Mississippi Burning

So many learning and yearning who do rap turnin

Some go to Howard and Dower until they're back runnin

I couldn't get with it, forbid it, I stepped and bit it, hit it

Who said I did it, admit it, my brain was half-witted

Misfitted, get it, I never had a bridge

Tight walkin, we stalkin, one life to live

How could I said it, wed it

My trigger was unleaded, I mean unloaded

Hold it, I think I better blow it

[CHORUS]

I left the home all alone, couldn't live on the bone

Oh what a way, hey, today you gotta get your own

By any means, I mean I have to get the green

My sneakers used plus I was tired of wearin people's jeans

The only soap I knew was _One Life to Live_

When I did watch, it was in someone's spot, ya dig?

Did it get better? Nope, folks used to joke about it

I'd get mad as hell, ready to stretch and yoke about it

Some talk the talk, can't even walk the walk

I use my head, lead the lead, let the leader stalk

I dig-em-smack em, back em when I cap em

My tale was mackin, ready to do some crackin

I was so broke I couldn't afford to joke

So I had to grin, pretend like everything was okey-doke

When it's rope not love hangin in dope spots

Thinkin of blowin shots? Well, I hope not

[CHORUS]

I reminisce of the way back, birth, bein born to adore

Any negative vibes, yes ??????

That's how it was done when I was runnin the bricks

To a click, easy vicks, even honeys that got with this

Nobody was spared, not sayin that they shoulda been

The evil I felt inside thrived behind a silly grin

But when it was time to roll, eliminate foes

L was there, small as hell blowin holes

But yo, I wasn't knocked for the use of a strong arm

So don't think that, if you do you'll be dead wrong

Because I'm here for ki's, as I said in the last bill

Not glorifying crime, all you reap is the balls and grills

Things got rough, I had no other alternative

But strive to live, man, fuck bein positive

Yo, that was the live, 21 and I'm sung

Now I'm Almighty L #209021

[CHORUS]
