Ja Rule - Race Against Time lyrics

[Chorus: x2] In my race against time I, can't stop Runnin' through the red light, livin' my life Even if I'm gettin' too hot I'ma keep runnin' through the red light, livin' my life God, why the hell am I here? Is it a blessin', or a painful lesson Of life and its directions? Date of conception two twenty nine I was birthed and won't be denied Lookin' into these eyes And witness lives' tragedies The boy who made slaves out of men, that's me For every lock there's a key The only thing that ever made me click was "Cash Money" So that I lust for Be it one of my deadly sins You know the seven I got all of them deep within Sometimes I slip, but you be there Pick me up, now I'm on my knees like what's up 'Cause only in a world that's corruptin' the sick Could you dare to look at my life and call it innocence Got me to a better sense Cause what's yours is mine Hear me lord, I'm runnin' out of time [Repeat: x2] In my race against time I can't stop Runnin' through the red light Livin' my life Even if I'm gettin' too high I'ma keep runnin' through the red light Livin' my life Nobody cry for me Cause I, want to see you smile for me When I die look through my windows, to the soul Tell me if you see Ja livin' to grow old Cause too many n***as done died for what I hold The talented warmer world Which is so cold Take me Save me Before I'm crazy The only reason I live Is for my baby Never did you tell me that Life ain't a game Maybe if you told me this sh** might be changed But now I'm just racin' against time Tryin' to survive And see why Y'all n***as drive over n***a's vibe If you gonna live, know you gonna die If you gonna steal, know you gotta lie Get drunk and stay high Don't de-n***a-ny Cause they'll never take me alive Feel me lord I'm runnin' out of time [Repeat: x2] In my race against time I can't stop Runnin' through the red light Livin' my life Even if I'm gettin too high I'ma keep runnin' through the red light Livin' my life I fears no man But when its time to go I'm gone Racin' through the darkness Learnin' what's right from wrong Lookin' for the light But all I see is the night When everything else is bright What happened to my life? Is this what I am? Is this what I've become? A n***a that don't give a f** about nothin' and no one Cold, even though I gotta burnin' desire within my soul I must set this whole world on fire If I control my destiny Maybe one day I'll give this world the best of me You know I never been one to judge right or wrong I embraced and showed you love Then I throw slugs At the other side Go get 'em in broad day light What a n***a would give to live my life You don't want it Cause if you could get it you would try Feel me lord Ja has arrived [Repeat: x4] In my race against time I can't stop Runnin' through the red light Livin' my life Even if I'm gettin' too high I'ma keep runnin' through the red light Livin' my life My life
