When that * be thinkin of cruisin´ The Braves cap is to the side Thinkin´ the police gon´ pull me over With this herb off in my ride So I hide the brick of weed Under the arm rest, under the leather Thinkin´ of startin ways To make my life a little better Then the dope peddler Never pay no * taxes

Struggling is just a part of my day Many obstacles been placed in my way I know the only reason that I make it through Is because I never stop believing in you Some people wonder why we´re here in the 1st place They can´t believe because they ain´t never seen your face But even when you pray, the next day you gotta try
Can it wait for nobody to come down out the sky You´ve got to realize that the world´s a test You can only do your best and let him do the rest You´ve got your life, you´ve got your health So quit procrastinating and push it yourself You´ve got to realize that the world´s a test You can only do your best and let him do the rest You´ve got your life, you´ve got your health So quit procrastinating
