Lyrics

1 Life 2 Live

Hook: Standing on the block with a draco; he ain't see the cop in his plain clothes/He ain't see the op from that angle, now he catching shots to the ankles/

(Triplet) Only got one life to live what u gon do wit it? (Triplet) You only got one life to live gotta stay true wit it/

Hook: He ain’t even think it was his time yet, cooking up coke in a pyrexx/ can’t live long with that mindset/ where you gon go if you die next/

(Triplet) Only got one life to live what u gon do wit it? (Triplet) You only got one life to live gotta stay true wit it/

Verse: (New triplet) I was born and raised in Miami Florida then ya boy spent some time in the A/ then I moved up north to the chi seen enough to write a rhyme everyday/

(New triplet) now I live in the Midwest, where they aim about mid chest, no jobs, failing schools, caught a felony cause shooting the blicks what he did best/ can't admit when you're dis-tressed, wondering how to get out of this mess; you must repent and believe in Gospel or you cannot enter in his rest/ 6b

I'm from the South where if you keep talking that smack, they gon aim for your mouth/ And if you move right never lackin them boys will come through find your family shoot up your house/

(New Triplet till the end) Seen A lot of pain, lived in different hoods all over the country’s a Racist system/ Historically documented even now we see prejudice judges and politicians/ 10b

Plus, bad choices sex out of marriage father's taken out homes look at wel-fare/ Hella thugs selling drugs, so the hood says we must be living in hell here/

That’s a lie hell’s much worse and you can’t imagine the pain/ weeping wailing, eternal fire and the fact is that you’ll have yourself to blame/

Robbing stealing shooting looting hated Jesus---but at the funeral preached into heaven/ false lies gon lead you astray—check the Word do not be deceived by the Reverend/

Hook: Standing on the block with a draco; he ain't see the cop in his plain clothes/He ain't see the op from that angle, now he catching shots to the ankles/

(Triplet) Only got one life to live what u gon do wit it? (Triplet) You only got one life to live gotta stay true wit it/

He ain’t even think it was his time yet, cooking up coke in a pyrexx/ can’t live long with that mindset/ where you gon go if you die next/

(Triplet) Only got one life to live what u gon do wit it? (Triplet) You only got one life to live gotta stay true wit it/

Verse 2:

(New Triplet) Stay strapped got the glizzy on em, “Bone Thuggin” getting “Busy” on em/ yea he “Krazy” never “Lazy,” best believe he just doing what the streets taught him/
steady aiming for “Flesh and Bone,” peace and forgiveness you'll never know/ until you surrender your life to the Sovereign ruler he’s Yahweh never left his throne/

opps wish that his shots miss, that'd be an interesting plot twist/ seeking revenge when they killed your family, only the Lord could stop this/
“Crossroads” of a vicious cycle, read some books never picked the Bible/ product of your broken environment where the number one goal, is survival/ 8b

(Flow switch) Gang banging and thuggin what the fam do, gotta hustle everyday you always gotta plan moves/ They don't understand you was raised in the streets; I can see it in your eyes,
hear the pain when you speak/
Had no choice you were born in this, four generations ago they was forming this/ Gangs started to protect their community check the history there's more to it/
than random violence he a brave hitter,
(Twist) Pulling the trigger with vigor call him grave digger/ you ain't even gotta live yo life like that ima keep it a stack lemme pray witcha/
Ima be real there's nothing greater in this world than Christ to give/
And Only the Gospel brings permanent change and you only got 1 Life to live/

4th Hook: Now he getting hit in the chest too, tryna figure out what’s the best move/ you never know how life’s gonna test you, without Christ how you gonna get through?/

(Triplet) Only got one life to live what u gon do wit it? (Triplet) You only got one life to live gotta stay true wit it/

Come to the Lord fo’ it’s too late, you can live life in a new way/
He can even give you a new name, come be a part of the true faith/

(Triplet) Only got one life to live what u gon do wit it? (Triplet) You only got one life to live gotta stay true wit it/
