Gloomy days got my head twisted Mystic visions of a razor blade Cut my blunt with precision Stuff it till it's bustin' Sippin' on some Tussin Imagine it, gothic hustlin' Men tusslin', women fussin' And they babies in the corner cryin' Young n***as bang, and they ain't afriad of dyin' Pistol keepers, mobile phones and beepers Cars and hoes, and plenty dust for the geekers Me, I'm a break beater, microphone eater Weed leader, siizlin' like a fajita But it's so hard for me to stay out the streets Behind tint blowin' cheap f**in' with freaks What kinda role model, I'ma be? Don't get it twisted Gifted, linquistic. graphic and realistic God, deleiver me from harm and arm me with Sense enough to know when to quit Chorus: I don't wanna die I don't wanna die (lord forgive me for the anger that I feel today) I don't wanna die I don't wanna die Thinkin' about what my eyes witnessed Thinkin' about what my kids gon' see When they get grown and independent What you doin' baby? 18, strippin' daily A small a** apartment, tryin' to flip a Mercedes I don't knock sh**, unless you a fiend Tryin' to hock sh** Protectin' myself I gotta grab the gock and pop sh** I guess that's the problem with the world today (what?) Black, white, asian So many people think this way f** with me and I'll shoot ya We live in, what used to be the space age, future To acid droppin' hippies Now they run the country Drug smugglin' with my tax money Bomb makers, nuclear, d**h creators White power, skin head, Jew and n***a haters All of this, plus I gotta watch the n***a next door What you think I pray for, man Chorus Life ain't nothin' but preperation For the angels and the demons that we all gon' face when The soul and the body seperate, that's d**h Nothin' left but darkness, after your last breath Well, all of that sh** is in the past Enjoy it while you got it, cause you can't take it with your a** Where I'm from, any day can be your last That's why them thug n***as live life hard and fast Slowdown, and find yourself surrounded by the lowdown Unaware, a showdown's about to go down Why we gotta clown instead of bein' kinfolks Why do white folks, think all we know is sellin' dope? Some can't cope, and got out hangin' from a rope Slit wrists, found shakin' from an overdose 2Pac and Biggie got they life snatched away Nobody knows when they gotta go, mayne Chorus That's all baby You never know when you gotta go d**hs around the corner Your nobody, till somebody kils you But I don't wanna die I don't wanna die Hey, I don't wanna die Can you hear me? I don't wanna die I don't wanna die I don't wanna die DIe, die, die, die, die (repeated till end)
