Not Promised Tomorrow Songtext
von Sunz of Man
Not Promised Tomorrow Songtext
You′re not promised tomorrow (Know what I'm sayin′?)
When you're living by the bottle (Pages of life turn every day)
Be careful what you follow (Check this one)
Guns and clips, carried by cliques, '86
Same shit 9-6, the old and young switch
Poor verse rich, wars and conflicts hit
Politics get rich off the Bloods and the Crips
Slaves shoot slaves, modern day Egypt
Brooklyn convicts is conned to be vic′
Harassed by the cops from up the block precinct
Fugitives forever, they choose to live together
Scheme to get cheddar from anybody livin′ better
However, the money-getters follow trendsetters
With black 9 Berettas, now they writin' jail letters
Government give us guns, so we go and kill each other
Man-made drugs destroy our sisters and our brothers
Some turn thieves to feed they seeds and they mothers
Undercover cops, under the cover sell Glocks
A free box of shell if you miss any shots
Crack spots of hell, only stops burn cells
Pale horses and evil forces, crime bosses
Weak mind double-crossers cause light courses
If it don′t fit, don't force it, can′t mix the Nile with the caucus
Picture the ocean without the saltness, killers without the forfeit
There's no time without me, 60 be the last sec′
You'll see another chance to breathe, so save it for some ease
'Cause it be a lot of y′all takin′ it raw with no grease
I never seen a time to be so easy for a real OG
Can't forget O.D., 60 Sec′ back on the set killin' spree
It′s been a long time, no hear from
Check it for the well-elected, fans know I bless it
Yo, comin' fearsome, those with a ear, let ′em hear, son
No more light for a fake to live none
Here's one, career's done, here come
The analytical, political, non-superstitial
Biochemical, blast the Earth by storm
Words of harm from Qur′ans, Holy Bibles, the arch-rival
The comin′ of the Noah's, Muhammad′s, messiahs, the street bibles
The burn of all MC's by the fire, the greatest stand-up
Pose up for hire, the Putnam Avenue shotgun, umph
They do run-run-run, they do run-run
Now my niggas around the way, F.A. rock to the far rock
Run souls up the block full of bums, get up the sucker trap
This ain′t Halloween, take off the mask, lot of chumps fakin' jacks
Ante up the money, put it in the pot, I wanna see all this trap
Or a nigga gonna get blast, fast
No hesitation, ′cause I'm on probation
Niggas think I got loot to be takin', I′m in it for the makin′
Mouthpiece retained, so there'll be no vacation
Warning, warning, a word for the snakin′
You're not promised tomorrow (Word up, man, people dyin′ every day)
When you're livin′ in the bottle (Drugs and gunplay)
Be careful what you follow (Better open your eyes, kid)
You got four individuals (Such)
Each member come together, sent to drop
A jewel (Jewel, jewel, jewel, jewel)
You got four individuals
Each member come together just to drop a jewel
It was my third day of Supreme Court, accused of a murder suspect
Caught me blazin' with Tamala in Gowanus Projects
A young future jail soldier with steel, sober, ill
Over the hill, still punch a cobra in his grill
Snitches and bitches I reveal, soon to make the devil kneel
Rat of this world for what? Or how he got his square peeled
That will be the day that my skills enhance
Strengthen my stance, no longer takin' the world by chance
Only got one life to live, so I create, make, and give
Keep it active, rollin′ massive, intelligent
As the days went, bloodstains still remain on the pavements
Parents in shock, another adolescent shot
Corrupted cops, yo, this shit gotta stop
You′re not promised tomorrow (Shit gotta stop, man)
When you're living in the bottle (Niggas is dyin′ every day)
Be careful what you follow (When you gon' realize
Man? This shit is for real out here, man)
When you′re living in the bottle (Word up
Man, niggas gotta keep they eyes open, man)
Be careful what you follow (Keep your head above water, word up, man)
When you're living in the bottle
Because you know why, man? We all we got)
You′re not promised tomorrow (That's my word
Man, y'all niggas don′t realize it, man)
When you′re living in the bottle (We all
Gon' burn in the motherfuckin′ fire, man)
Be careful what you follow (It's word
Up, man, peace to all my brethrens)
When you're living by the bottle (Pages of life turn every day)
Be careful what you follow (Check this one)
