Uh, this is life (This is life)
This is what I know (This what I know) 
So to me (so to me) this is life (This is life) 

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 

I'm up at like six AM to check this nigga 
We work the night shift, and I gots to check them figures 
I knock on his door, people talkin' 'bout "He ain't there"
But the house is packed, shit, I know he here somewhere 
See, money get high, I don't knock what a nigga do to get by 
Just make sure you gettin' by don't f*ck with me gettin' mine 
Ain't the first time he ran off, shoulda split his shit then 
Hate to think of what he's did, and if I catch him slippin'
Won't be an ass-whippin, I can tell you that 
I keep it real with this cat, he go and sell two packs 
And run off (damn), tell me he was locked down up North 
And you out a week later? That's bullshit! I bust off
I need this dough, f*ck you think, I'm here for my health? 
I need this wealth because I feed myself 
You play with my life when you play with my money 
Playin' around but this'll be the last time you think somethin's funny 

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 

Yo, I've been casin' the liquor store for a month now 
With 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 
Aight, bitch, put on the ski mask, make sure that when we ask 
For the dough, they know that we takin' all three bags 
See that? We got a hero, shoot that nigga 
Matter of fact, you hit the back, I'll put two in that nigga 
Hard headed motherfuckers always get it 
I told him what would happen if he moved, the nigga moved, so I did it 
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 f*ck up out of there 
Didn't get a dime, but at least I got up out of there 

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 

Ay yo, I see it, try to avoid it, but it comes 
That's how it's goin' in the slums over crumbs 
Somethin' little becomes somethin' major 
Niggas gettin' blown up like a pager, ear to ear with the razor
Pour out my soul, took control of hurt
Why must Earl Simmons swim in dirt? 
I'm gon' make it work, twenty-eight and tryin' to 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'm a 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' 
F*ck 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 

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
