Race Against Time - Tank, Ja Rule

In my race against time I — can’t stop

Runnin through the red light — livin my life

Even if I’m gettin too high

I’ma keep runnin through the red light

More like consequences, repercussions

Deep discussions about my loved ones

Didn’t know paper had a price on it

That your ice would have your life on it

The cost to ball ain’t changed, but I’m trying to

Red lights flashing, but I keep on through

Mom said paper ain’t everything

Baby girl wants a wedding ring, I wish that I could sing

Oooohhhh, I’m moving too fast (movin too fast)

Oooohhhh, I’m not gonna last (I know I know I know)

Oooohhhh, smile down on me (God be smilin down on me)

Ain’t got much time, made up my mind

I’m gonna keep on through, whatever comes is mine

Oh please nobody cry for me

Cuz I, wanna see you smile for me

When I die, look through my window, to the soul

Tell me if you see Tank living to grow old

Cuz too many niggas done died for what I hold

The talent to warm a world which is so cold

Take me, save me, before I’m crazy

The only reason I live is for my baby

Never did you tell me that

Life ain’t a game

Maybe if you told me this

Shit might could change

But now I’m just racing against time, trying to survive

And see why, ya’ll niggas thrive over nigga’s vibe

If you gonna live, know you gonna die

If you gonna steal, know you gotta lie

Get drunk and stay high

Don’t de-nigga-ny, cuz they’ll never take me alive

Feel me Lord, I’m running out of time

Oooohhhh, I’m moving too fast (movin too fast)

Oooohhhh, I’m not gonna last (at this rate I’m not gonna survive)

Oooohhhh, smile down on me (smile down on me)

Ain’t got much time, made up my mind

I’m gonna keep on through, whatever comes is mine (gonna keep runnin)
