Race Against Time Lyrics

Race Against Time

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...
