Guilty Simpson - Before I Die lyrics

(Protect me) [Sample] (It's never too late to start over) [Verse 1] (Before I die) I wanna set mines' soul straight Should never have to pay another light bill late Everything great Male-born steaks on the grill on the estate, right by the lake (Before I die) I wanna travel the world and see things Instead of livin illegal, livin the street dream They say it's hard to imagine Since so many fears go out in that fashion (Before I die) I wanna have a wife and kids To tell in detail of the life we live Half-ashamed of the things we did Some friends dead, some friends with beards (Before I die) I wanna make peace with God Instead of braking my neck tryin to keep the job They say dreams come true Before I go, these things I must do [Cuts & Scratches] (Done some things bad, done some things good) (Blow your mind, the soul is getting me awful) (From the beginning to the ending, I am not to lose) (One day we'll rule the game, in the game of Hip-Hop) [Verse 2] (Before I die) I want big cars, Cuban cigars Doin' lunch with the stars Luxory hotels and five-star suites Play-off ball games and front-row seats (Before I die) I need Hip-Hop to rise Instead of looking all through restless eyes Praying for changes Cuz nowadays cats do whatever to make it, just to be famous (Before I die) I need to be stable with ?S-Fro? And add new emcees to cash check fo' Platinum plaques and world-wide tours Various awards in store, we want more (Before I die) We tryin to rebuild the hood Where scavengers run ya' in and steal your goods They say dreams come true Before I go, these things I must do (Before I die) [Cuts & Scratches] (Done some things bad, done some things good) (Blow your mind, the soul is getting me aweful) (From the beginning to the ending I am not to lose) (One day we'll rule the game, in the game of Hip-Hop) (In my lifetime, I did it all) (Done somethings bad, done somethings good)
