Geto Boys - Time Taker Lyrics
Scarface:As I open my eyes unto a new dayI see the same old shit that I was face to face with yesterdayIts all the same and I cant change timeAn example of a young nigga trapped up and his brains dyinI close my eyes to refrain my thoughts (open)Open my eyes to remain untaughtWhy my life gotta have a yesterday?Why cant I memorize tommorrow and live my life as just a day?A babys born and you hears moms cryinIs she cryin cause that shes happy or the fact that she know she goneDyinProbably some shit well never figure outI think my mind is plotting plangs and my second mind is trying to take meOutI had a dream I think I saw a dude cause he had the looks that of a killerAnd he sung to me these four tunesHe said life is like a game of diceYou roll em right the first time but you seldom get to roll em twiceNot understanding what he said docI find myself in the middle of life in an infa-red dotSo tell me doctor is you gettin that?Mother*****ers bustin at you with wheels now can you picture that?Thats why you find me an assult mindCause in this world we live together but divided by a chalk lineYou wanted to hear my life story well I told youMaybe theres answers to my question in your minila folderWhats the solution to this mind state?You tellin me its gonna take you some time. how long do time take?Im losing focus on this straight lineAint trying to wait for mother*****ers so now Im forced to take timeWillie d:I pull my popper out my trousers aimed it at his adbomenAnd grabbed the mans life away from him in a momentAngle dust and heroin and all of that I was on itMy opponent never knew what himAs I was bootin I heard him say get down someboys shootinHe didnt realize he was the targetI didnt realize what I was doing till he departedOh lord, Im feeling something I never felt blackI told his momma I was sorry she said sorry wont bring him backGod gave life to the human race and he alone has the right to take it awaySo I tell me that I dont careBut every time I dim the lights Im havin mother*****in nightmaresIts been a year since I heard ?And I can still smell the mother*****in gunpowderWhat does life mean to me?Id trade places with the man a heartbeat if I was granted peaceI try to wipe it out my memoryI saw a shrink but she couldnt provide a remedyIm public enemy number oneWaitin in line on death row to get the needle for what I donePretty soon I meet my makerThee creator, the one and only true time takerBushwick bill:How much more longer I got life leftYou dont know thats why I live day for day and time it right and leftAnd try to take two steps at a timeMakin sure our opposition stays two steps behindKeep in mind these niggas who wanna see me lettin go and shitThats why I fight for my life until its over withI know these niggas havin hard timesThats why Im standing up and fighting for shit when it reguards minesWhy must I always sing these sad songsBecause they comforance all my feelings inside till all the bads goneYou wanna hear my life story well I told yaMaybe theres answers to my question in you *****in folderWhats the solution to this mind state?You tellin me its gonna take some time. how long do time take?Im losin focus on my straight linneAint trying to wait for a mother*****ers so now Im forced to take time
