Irv Gotti - Race Against Time lyrics

[Chorus](2x) 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 [Verse 1] 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 Look 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, that I got all of them deep within Sometimes I slip, but you be there to pick me up Down 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 whats yours is mines Hear me lord, I'm runnin' out of time [Chorus](2x) [Verse 2] Nobody cry for me, cause I Wanna 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 [Chorus] [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus](4x)
