[Chorus]
One more road to cross
One more risk to take
Gotta✦ live my life
Like there's✦ one more move to make
One more road to cross
One more risk to take
Gotta✦ live my life
Like there's✦ one more move to make
[Verse 2]
Yo, I've been casin'✦ the liquor✦ store for a month now
But me and two other✦ niggas✦
Is about✦ to run up in there and shut it down
They got four people on the inside,✦ one stay in the back
Two stock boys, one at the register, but he count the stacks
A'ight, bitch, put on the ski mask
Make sure that when we ask
For the dough, they know that we takin'✦ all three bags
Now see that? We got a hero,✦ shoot that nigga✦
Matter✦ of fact, you hit the back, I'll put two in that nigga✦
Hard-head motherfuckers always✦ get it
I told him what would happen✦ if he moved✦
The nigga✦ moved,✦ so I did it (A'ight)
"Did you get it?" I asked✦ my man as he was comin'✦ from the back
Nigga✦ opened✦ his mouth, said nothin'✦ and fell out flat
This cat come out spittin', hittin'✦ my mans, his mans
Couldn't control✦ what was in his hands
I'm hit, damn, I bust back and got the fuck up outta✦ there
Didn't get a dime, but at least I got up outta✦ there
[Chorus]
One more road to cross
One more risk to take
Gotta✦ live my life
Like there's✦ one more move to make
One more road to cross
One more risk to take
Gotta✦ live my life
Like there's✦ one more move to make
[Verse 3]
Ayo, I see it, try to avoid✦ it, but it comes✦
That's how it's goin' in the slums over✦ crumbs (What)
Somethin'✦ little becomes somethin'✦ major✦ (Uh-huh)
Niggas✦ gettin'✦ blown up like a pager✦
Ear to ear with the razor✦ (What)
Pour out my soul, took control✦ of hurt
Why must Earl Simmons swim in dirt?
I'm gon' make it work, twenty-eight and tryna✦ get baptized
Priest scared✦ to touch me 'cause he said I gave him bad vibes✦
Ride when I die, straight down, but I'm plottin'
We all gots to go, but who wants to be forgotten?
I'ma✦ leave a mark and it won't be the mark of the devil
Throw dirt and may your hands burn when you touch the shovel✦
The level✦ of animosity is stoppin' me from thrivin'✦
Fuck what them niggas✦ is talkin'✦ about,✦ I'm survivin'✦
Alive✦ and goin' through it, but I made my bed
So now it's in these flames✦ that I lay my head
[Chorus]
One more road to cross
One more risk to take
Gotta✦ live my life
Like there's✦ one more move to make
One more road to cross
One more risk to take
Gotta✦ live my life
Like there's✦ one more move to make
One more road to cross
One more risk to take
Gotta✦ live my life
Like there's✦ one more move to make
One more road to cross
One more risk to take
Gotta✦ live my life
Like there's✦ one more move to make
