Borrowed Time Songtext
von Juan Gotti

Borrowed time
Borrowed, borrowed
Borrowed, borrowed
Borrowed time
Borrowed, borrowed
Borrowed, borrowed
Borrowed time

Yo, take a trip to the day where it all started
SPM was around, we was so blunted
Mexicans on the rise was what we all wanted
It was all solid, homeboy, I can still see it
It all had meaning, hustling left the block bleeding
With my Pac CD, man, it had us all dreaming
Alcohol, demons, fucking left your boy leaning
Writing song after song that left the crowd screaming


Left them hoes fiending, it all had meaning
Merry-Go to the round, it had you boys singing
That dope boy living, Houston where they cook chicken
And you dead like you give ghetto hood victim
That no-good system, fuck that life-risking

On the cool, that ain′t me, that ain't your boy pimping
Left my life twisted, all I wanted was to shine
Maybe one day fucking with this borrowed time

I know we might not see tomorrow
And we should be happy for today
I know it′s hard for you to swallow
We're all just gonna fade away
We're living on borrowed time
We′re living, we′re living on borrowed time

'Member coming home from school, Grandma cooking sopa
Now I′m hustling, selling dope, watching out for chota
Mom, I know you couldn't afford me expensive ropa

Or them Jordans, now I know ′cause this life is loca
Enjoy every single moment 'cause your time is borrowed

People these days will do whatever just for a follow
I′m tryna get it right with God and far away from perfect
I went from selling cocaine to selling rap verses


I remember all them days used to be the worsest
Now I sip an ounce of lean every time I'm thirsty
My little cousin just touched down fresh out the pen
He lost the years of his life he won't get back again
I really miss my homie, he′s in an early grave
How you respect my side of town when life is throwing shade?
I helped a lot of folks, expect nothing in return
You can′t buy respect, respect, you gotta earn

I know we might not see tomorrow
And we should be happy for today
I know it's hard for you to swallow
We′re all just gonna fade away
We're living on borrowed time
We′re living, we're living on borrowed time

I′ma live it up today, tomorrow ain't no guarantee
Run that check up and keep a model on her knees
Dripping in designer, feeling like I'm famous

I don′t need no shooters, ho, you gon′ respect my gangster
'Member that boy Lucky did the fool off in the club
Pouring out champagne, mouth full of princess cuts
Never had no money, when I got it, it was lovely
Had to act a donkey for them times that I was bummy
Crumbs make cake, now my crib by the lake
Keep on hustling, homie, don′t give up, and man, you gon' be straight
Gotta spit the truth, yeah, I′m living proof
If I could make it out of nothing, you could probably too

I'm alive and free, I can′t complain 'bout much
I thank God I'm still counting up these bucks
This for my niggas on a mission with that work
H-Town, boy, we got them birdies that don′t chirp

I know we might not see tomorrow
And we should be happy for today
I know it′s hard for you to swallow
We're all just gonna fade away
We′re living on borrowed time
We're living, we′re living on borrowed time

Borrowed time
Borrowed time
Borrowed time
Borrowed time
