[00:12.970]Momma told me one day it was gonna happen
[00:16.575]But she never told me when
[00:20.049]She told me it would happen when I was much older
[00:23.628]Wish it would've happened then (Is this the end?)
[00:27.233]Momma told me one day it was gonna happen
[00:30.733]But she never told me when
[00:34.103]She told me it would happen when I was much older
[00:37.473]Wish it would've happened then
[00:40.451]Sometimes I be wakin' up at high noon
[00:41.757]Sayin', "Why me Lord?" -- folks thinkin' I'ma die soon
[00:43.951]I just tell 'em keep seekin', but when they sleepin'
[00:46.276]I be concealed up in my room, knowin that it could happen
[00:48.732]I'm just tryin' to maintain, because the future is untold
[00:51.318]'Til the static unfolds that the good die young
[00:53.042]Please God let a Bad Boy die old
[00:54.818]Do you think I wanna lie cold
[00:56.046]Or better yet have many shots come close to the head
[00:58.110]Shirt soaked 'til it's red
[00:59.442]The most that was said was that my homies had a toast to the dead
[01:01.532]Do I need a pack a vest for stress so I can rest
[01:03.752]'Cause even though I'm blessed in my flesh
[01:05.320]It all came down to a test
[01:06.756]A mother****er wanna go and put a tattoo on my chest
[01:08.768]Now I'm caught up in the mix and I can't do shit , but still
[01:10.962]I can't ride with program, fearin' no man
[01:13.156]Hit the car door let the door slam it's a blessin' that he had slow hands
[01:15.951]But he's still right behind me
[01:17.127]All these heartless fools is steady comin after my P
[01:19.321]If l could get my shit together
[01:21.150]So many cheddar niggas comin' after my cheese
[01:22.952]Is it my car that they're losin, are we all for the choosin'?
[01:25.564]Or is it all in confusion? Better yet all an illusion
[01:28.151]Shots rang through the hall bullets cruisin for bruisin'
[01:30.449]Don't let this heartless bastard take my life away
[01:32.278]I don't wanna conceive takin' his either
[01:33.819]Dipped into the back and took a breather
[01:35.282]Heard steps steady in closin' with the bullet skeezer
[01:37.398]Gotta do somethin', I ain't scared to go
[01:39.357]But yet my heart is steady pumpin for somethin'
[01:41.055]I refuse to be the one that they be dumpin'
[01:42.831]Gotta get away before the TECs start gunnin'
[01:44.451]Bodies start jumpin', wreckin' my brain not to try and understand
[01:46.959]But withstand, is it 'cause I'm a rich man
[01:48.944]Or is it tryin' to put a brother down in the dirt like quicksand?
[01:51.321]But no matter what the reason, I don't wanna stop breathin'
[01:53.777]There's dreams to fulfill still
[01:55.240]Can't complete 'em with a still kill
[01:56.546]Face to face with enemies still grill
[01:58.505]Forgive me for the pain I've caused and the sins I've committed
[02:00.595]Even though I'm not hopin' to go
[02:01.953]I wish someone would open the do'
[02:03.207]This man's holdin' the trigger and his finger's steady chokin' it slow
[02:05.532]Is this the end?
[02:06.028]Momma told me one day it was gonna happen
[02:09.476]But she never told me when
[02:12.898]She told me it would happen when I was much older
[02:16.503]Wish it would've happened then (Is this the end?)
[02:20.500]Just, can't, let, go (Is this the end?)
[02:27.919]I, just, don't, know
[02:30.505]Wish it would've happened then
[02:33.222]Did I just hear a tight jam? Now it's on, let make my maneuver
[02:36.644]Hit the alley saw his man in a Landcruiser
[02:38.394]In his hand was a Ruger, dipped in a Lex like Luger
[02:40.902]Heard shots from a steel bruiser
[02:42.547]Teflon in the seat took a pale stress
[02:44.193]Felt the hate on my chest as I placed on my vest
[02:46.048]What's wrong with the brakes in the LX?
[02:47.746]Ran straight into a light pole, just before I got my life stole
[02:50.071]A car came to the rescue
[02:51.533]I bailed in and said, "Bless you
[02:52.970]But what made me the man you would wanna show help to?"
[02:55.034]I proceeded to ask him, and he said with a passion
[02:57.594]I could never watch a soul die, plus you the man lookin' too fly
[02:59.997](But who are you?) The pimp nigga named Twista from the cold Chi
[03:02.348]Rain or sunshine, gotta keep one eye, nigga, I been shot at and stole on
[03:05.300]No protection from one time, only caught for my prime
[03:07.338]So I asked the Father what I did so wrong?
[03:08.957]'Cause shit it's been hard for me besides chief
[03:10.812]And the smell of sweet fumes when the beef brew
[03:12.353]Mother****ers steady ballin' but steady fallin'
[03:14.234]Right in detours, 'bout to hit my feet soon
[03:15.723]So I just presume, deep into the rhymes of a rapper
[03:18.361]Prepare my mind for the capture
[03:19.746]Thinkin' Ginuwine like the bachelor
[03:21.182]But why these niggas wanna make us intertwined with the rapture
[03:23.272]Ego for dispersin' us, don't even hurt the clutch
[03:25.336]'Cause he's coldblooded and merciless
[03:26.538]Steady bustin' shots at both of us, was the strap close to us
[03:28.549]Then for survival we both to bust
[03:29.907]But Renaults get to roast to crush, 'cause he steady gettin' closer
[03:32.650]Paranoid like a crack fiend when the gat seen
[03:34.583]Scream when the bullet hit me in the shoulder
[03:36.177]Don't wanna die 'til I get older
[03:37.404]Try to visualize the beholder, he's inconceivable
[03:39.494]So now my sight is gettin' dark a lot
[03:40.461]Let's step off up in this parking lot where them dogs bark a lot
[03:42.916]And try to wait until his mall get hot
[03:44.196]I can make a person fight to survive whether good or connivin'
[03:46.286]You never know when it's your time to leave
[03:47.644]Smokin' weed to keep my mind at ease, let's go back to the car
[03:49.865]But wait, I can't find the keys
[03:51.145]Plus we didn't chill long enough, the footsteps are comin' close
[03:53.548]Is it one of them unholy men?
[03:54.959]With a strap ready to boldly sin
[03:56.160]Mama told me it was comin', but I wish she woulda told me when
[03:58.355]Is this the end?
[03:59.530]Momma told me one day it was gonna happen
[04:02.613]But she never told me when
[04:05.956]She told me it would happen when I was much older
[04:09.535]Wish it would've happened then (Is this the end?)
[04:13.088]Momma told me one day it was gonna happen
[04:16.667]But she never told me when
[04:20.036]She told me it would happen when I was much older
[04:23.641]Wish it would've happened then (Is this the end?)
