chorus: repeat 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
ja rule:
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 whats yours is mine
hear me lord, i´m runnin´ out of time
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 high
i´ma keep runnin´ through the red light
livin´ my life
ja rule:
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 niggas 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
shit might be changed
but now i´m just racin´ against time
tryin´ to survive
and see why
y´all niggas drive over nigga´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-nigga-ny
cause they´ll never take me alive
feel me lord
i´m runnin´ out of time
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 high
i´ma keep runnin´ through the red light
livin´ my life
ja rule:
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 nigga that don´t give a fuck 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 nigga 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
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
ja rule:
my life...
