Is it too late for me to be changing habits?
I wouldn't trade my passion
A smart hood nigga tired of me taking classes
Wishing that I could refrain from trapping
And escape the madness
So tell them other rappers they should save the capping forreal
Showboating, Lord knowing that they lacking the skill
Just promoting poor slogans but they mask it as real
Don't condone it if they asking how I happen to feel
Bout being Black getting killed up in the field
Cuz I pose as a threat
Reason I'm taking a knee as I roll up the sess
And get to making these beats just to cope with the stress
I could've laid defeated but I rose to the test
From what I been through got issues that I hope to correct
Gotta continue ain't no tissues when you roam with a set
I know to expect some dumb shit when it's over a check
Reason I live without reluctance I ain't holding my breath, no
Life's too short to be worried about why your life's too short
Cuz time waits for no one, I said time waits for no one
Life's too short to be worried about why your life's too short
Cuz time waits for no one, I said time waits for no one
Life's too short to be worried about why your life's too short
Cuz time waits for no one, yeah, I said time waits for no one
Life's too short to be worried about why your life's too short
Cuz time waits for no one
Yeah, this shit getting personal bout my Momma business
First time I pictured life without my Momma in it
Which ain't a life worth living with all the drama getting
Outta hand, colon cancer where the hell did it come from?
I was stressing through depression with just enough funds
To book a flight home to give you all the love when I see you
Rushing down 95 thinking I need you
When I landed heard you almost died in ICU
Offa negligence post-operation
See they don't care about black women up in these hospitals and their complications
Keeping it blunt just like I outta face it
Swear I woulda killed them doctors & told ya honor blatant
"Yeah yeah it's careless I admit it"
But now she's in remission
Feeling lifted that she living
Got me thinking bout shit different
It's funny how death got us closer than we've ever been
So here's to your second wind
I love you, Momma
Death is just a reminder to live now and love now
Death is just a reminder to live now and love now
Cuz life's too short
