Break the bank, make my heart rate escalate I can't wait 'til the sun come up Come precise like a diamond cut I live life like my time is up So I ain't got no time to waste Don't want a watch with a diamond face I wanna watch through a scope Head shot from a mile away Ya head pop like JFK, like a plot by the CIA We ain't dying from the KKK When that AK spray, they say "ay bay bay" Stay tuned watch the melee play Get attached to the tracks and the facts through the words I say Gotta navigate out my way I'm a roadside IED, detonating on live TV Larry King, all eyes on me Now put your hands where my eyes can see
HOOK:
If I die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take 'Cause I have faith, and I can't wait To get these obstacles up outta my face 'Cause it's my time and it's my grind And not even midnight can stop my shine Let me confront, the ultimate sin You're ready to die, but I'm dying to live
VERSE 2:
The hustler's theme Caught in-between greed and the best of things I don't even breathe, expand my chest, fatigued Benjamin green leaves in a nest of thieves I get down on my knees And beg God to forgive my sins Back at it again Raise up like Attica did Shift down 4th to 5th, and burn like an arsonist West bound down PCH Catching nothing' but green lights My foot never touched the brakes My loot, money makes move in Vegas Shake Cali like the San Andreas I'm the truth in the booth, you a Space Invader Go 'head and hate me, hater Hack ya hard drive and erase the data 'Til I come face to face with my creator Bust back, bottom line, Bourne Ultimatum I'm too smart to assassinate him Try and touch me, it's fine And just kindly return the favor I return the emancipator May we all progress, to the power of X
HOOK:
If I die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take 'Cause I have faith, and I can't wait To get these obstacles up outta my face 'Cause it's my time and it's my grind Not even midnight can stop my shine Let me confront, the ultimate sin You're ready to die, but I'm dying to live
Verse 3:
What you know about mass appeal? I peel out as I clutch the wheel Death certificate signed and sealed Take a journey down the road to glory Pay attention to a soldier's story There will be none after, there was none before me X-Man withstand the test A thin line between life and death Sometimes it sucks when you find success Lost friends, never lost respect Coming home like an Iraq vet So now the time and the place is set It's been a long haul, ready to go Circle up, c'mon start the show So I can breath and achieve the impossible I want the bootleggers to get it The wise words of Xzibit You never seen me crash and burn, I'm dying to live it Who ready for a revolution? Who ready for a real solution? Save the music
HOOK:
If I die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take 'Cause I have faith, and I can't wait To get these obstacles up outta my face 'Cause it's my time and it's my grind Not even midnight can stop my shine Let me confront, the ultimate sin You're ready to die, but I'm dying to live.
