I don't know dawg, juss trying to live it one day at a time
I hear you man, live it one day at a time
Let me get up outta here man my ride waitin'
Aiight cat daddy stay tru, aiight man peace

He greets his father with his hands out
Rehabilitated slightly, glad to be the man's child
The world is different since he's seen it last
Out of jail in seven years and he's happy that he's free at last

All he had was his mother's worth
Now she's gone and he's gotta make a change
And make it for the beddah
But he's back so he's got one strike against him
And he's young plus he came up in the system

But he's smart and he's finally makin' eighteen
And this goes to get on top and try to stay clean
So he's calling up his homie who dun came up
Livin' like this now they dealin' with the same stuff

And had that attitude that who he was was worth it
And with that fucked up attitude
He killed his first mate
Now it's different and he's dead as dirt

And realized that the name
Ain't coming up but it still hurt
And can't nobody change this
It's ninteen ninety-four and we up against the same shit

I nevah understand why
I could nevah seen a man cry, 'til I seen that man die

Imagine life at it's full peak
Then imagine lying dead in the arms of your enemy
Imagine peace on this earth when there's no grief
Imagine grief on this earth when there's no peace

'Cuz everybody's got a different way of endin' it
And when your number comes for service then they send it in
Now your time has arrived for the final touch
I see the fear in your eyes and hear your final breath

How much longer will it be
'Til it's all done?
Total darkness and ease be in all one
I watch him die and when he dies let us celebrate

You took his life but your memory he'll never take
You'll be headed to another place
And the life you used to live
Will reflect in your mother's face

I nevah understand why
I could nevah seen a man cry, 'til I seen that man die

I hear you breathin' but your heart no longer sounds strong
But you kinda scared of dying so you hold on
And you keep on blacking out 'cuz the post is near
Stop trying to fight the reaper just relax and let it go

Because there's no way you can fight it but you'll still try
And you can try it til you fight it but you'll still die
Now your spirit leaves your body and your mind clears
The rigormortis starts to set, now you outta here

You start your journey into outer space
You see yourself in the light but you're still feeling outta place
So you standing in the tunnel of eternal light
And you see the ones you never learn to love in life

Make the choice let it go but u can back it up
If you ain't at peace with God you need to patch it up
But if you ready close your eyes and we can set it free
There lies a man not scared to die, may he rest in peace

I still got to wondah why
I never seen a man cry 'til I seen a man die
(Hope you feel beddah)

I don't know dawg, juss trying to live it one day at a time
I hear you man, live it one day at a time
