Youth never learns the truth about life
All they see is money,
'hos, a lot of hype
I can tell you things that are wrong
And some are right,
But I have a view of a different type
I seen him come up on the block
Slang the rocks for the cops,
And my mother's overworked
And my pop's gone berserk
She puts on teeny weeny
Skirts for the money, that ain't funny
I got to stay alive do what I do to survive!
If I close my eyes will I rise?
If I don't that won't be no surprise
I live my life like my last
Learned many lessons but I have to laugh
Because your not
Promised
Tomorrow!
Because your not
Promised
Tomorrow!
Because your not
Promised
Tomorrow!
Because your not
Don't live for today
One life to live full of stress and strife
Obstacles of chaos any time, many kind
I can tell you things that are
Wrong and some are right,
But I have a view of a different type
I seen him grow up kinda wild,
A spoiled child living foul
And he's fed a silver spoon,
And he still acts like a goon
I don't understand it son
Why must you carry a gun?
For the fun and the fame,
Pulling triggers ain't no game
If I close my eyes will I rise?
If I don't that won't be no surprise
I live my life like my last
Learned many lessons but I have to laugh
Because your not
Promised
Tomorrow!
Because your not
Promised
Tomorrow!
Because your not
Promised
Tomorrow!
Because your not
Don't live for today
Fuck the dumb ditty dumb
Able bodies being bums
People always talking shit,
Get yours if it's not legit
How you think the rich got rich?
Cry and bitch and pitch a fit
I say mind over matter and your pockets
Will be phatter!!!
If I close my eyes will I rise?
If I don't that won't be no surprise
I live my life like my last
Learned many lessons but I have to laugh
Because your not
Promised
Tomorrow!
Because your not
Promised
Tomorrow!
Because your not
Promised
Tomorrow!
Because your not
Live my life like my last
Because your not
