moving too fast

Lifes too short when youre living too fast
Moving full speed trying not to crash
Cant fall cant slip cant slip cant fall
Keep one eye open cant sleep at all
Lifes too short when youre living too fast
Moving full speed trying not to crash
Cant fall cant slip cant slip cant fall
Keep one eye open cant sleep at all
He was my homie, late at night wed ride
I knew that he was riding dirty contraband on the side
Of the drivers seat, hed like the way Id ride a beat
A brother from another mother but hed dwell inside the streets
No jump shot, no college, no flows
A natural born hustler that kept a low pro
A little loco, I askd why you living so fast
He replied, why you living so slow
You know we both laughed
Lifes a little funny when you got no cash
He took care of his girls kids the burden he would bare it
They wasnt even his, a previous marriage
Common law got it all from the street life
Said he would have rapped but he could never stay on beat right
I hate to see him ducking cops under the stress
Because the situation in the inner cities is a mess
Lifes too short when youre living too fast
Moving full speed trying not to crash
Cant fall cant slip cant slip cant fall
Keep one eye open cant sleep at all
Lifes too short when youre living too fast
Moving full speed trying not to crash
Cant fall can't slip cant slip cant fall
Keep one eye open cant sleep at all
Theres a girl in my neighborhood
Trying to do everything that her neighbor would
She sits alone on the stoop and watches
Parents aint around no influence to stop this
She want to do what grown women do
But shes a little confused 12 years old been raised on rap music
Her self image is gimmicks and material living
Half naked women sex and money spending
Education aint making her dollars, it aint problem
Because her body sells more than flipping burgers at McDonalds
Shes in the fast lane everything sideways is just a blur
Its how tunnel vision occurs
Another casualty childhood fatality
Robbed of her innocence missed out on being a kid again
So slow your roll like rotisseries
Before its too late to even listen to me
Lifes too short when youre living too fast
Moving full speed trying not to crash
Cant fall cant slip cant slip cant fall
Keep one eye open cant sleep at all
Lifes too short when youre living too fast
Moving full speed trying not to crash
Cant fall cant slip cant slip cant fall
Keep one eye open cant sleep at all
