People say there's more to life Than getting rich and walking right Graduate from nine to five Sit and watch the time go by I don't really know, that may be it all It could be the whole thing I do what I want, I go where I please But still I want more things I let lost people run my life Sing these songs, it's all I got Lost myself to a part I play Now I'm just sad and my head hurt Ain't no wet foot, I go head first Hit the fork and I took a left turn Learning that I had to do it my way And before it gets bettеr, it's gonna get worse
You bettеr live for the right now And throw a smile on your face The good things in your life now Do not let them go to waste If I could give you some advice now Appreciate what you have Because if you lost it all right now I betcha you'd be in your bag Girl you better bask in that daylight Momma told me "Boy, fix your face right And if you keep whining, I promise, I'll give you good reason to cry" Life's short don't waste time Got a good girl gotta make time Gotta throw the ego to the wayside Show love, you ain't gotta say why, naw Don't waste time Got a good girl gotta make time Gotta throw the ego to the wayside Show love, you ain't gotta say why, no, no
I used to want to be up on the music blogs I used to want to sign a deal with Interscope I used to want to be up in the illest cars With the baddest women and the illest hoes And the mad Benz, on the cal, with the ceiling off Looking at my ex-girl, walking as I'm peeling off Camera pan close up on her face and she's still in awe I may not have a million but I'm chillin' dawg And if I could go back, I would say to him "Just focus on your spirit and you'll make it kid And do right by the women that you make it with Taking her for granted, she's someone you should be patient with Get your momma flowers, even when she get you mad mad And people backstab, be careful and keep a trash bag Skip the fast pass, be knowledgeable, that's the bag bag Polish all your skills, set your price, then you tax that Even if you independent no man is an island And do not put your stock in fresh trends and diamonds And if you treat her good she won't think about your wallet You could put a rock on her finger don't make you solid"
You better live for the right now And throw a smile on your face The good things in your life now Do not let them go to waste If I could give you some advice now Appreciate what you have Because if you lost it all right now I betcha you'd be in your bag Girl you better bask in that daylight Momma told me "Boy, fix your face right And if you keep whining, I promise, I'll give you good reason to cry" Life's short don't waste time Got a good girl gotta make time Gotta throw the ego to the wayside Show love, you ain't gotta say why, naw Don't waste time Got a good girl gotta make time Gotta throw the ego to the wayside Show love, you ain't gotta say why, no, no
