I don't know how it slipped my mind— cause it's golden
You only got one shot, but keep rollin'
And just forget what happened before
Always remember it can happen some more
I want it all
From the time I hit rock bottom
To the paparazzi sayin', "I got him"
Best believe I go in
Yep, it ain't hard to tell
I want it all
They consider myself lucky; I had my ordinary hoop dreams
Jumpin' on whatever the loop brings
And I ain't talkin' bout my shoestrings
Now the only time I could converse with people is through my Ustream
Had the pleasure to live up the block form one of the greatest rappers of all time
But I wasn't on time
So this image of mine— he already live
And I made it out my crib, finish what he begin to live
Came from being in that shelter to livin, up in a condo
Media waiting for me to slip like a convo
Walk through Hollywood and everybody's livin,
Walk through Brownsville— you'd be lucky to find a John Doe
Friends went from playin' ball to smokin' trees in the hall
Dreamin' bout that "good life," bumpin' Biggie Smalls
Now they regret that whole lifestyle
They got the chance to change and it's right now
I don't know how it slipped my mind— cause it's golden
You only got one shot, but keep rollin'
And just forget what happened before
Always remember it can happen some more
I want it all
From the time I hit rock bottom
To the paparazzi sayin', "I got him"
Best believe I go in
Yep, it ain't hard to tell
I want it all
Now what you know about hoppin' on that train
To get inspired by the big lights?
Surrounded by people who never cared to live life
Females my age decided to give life
Messed up their kids life— you could say they killed twice
Damn, hope I could be somebody's idol
Show them success and how to conquer all their rivals
My homie, Mel, turned over to the Bible
Cause God is the only person he couldn't lie to
I'm an example of what could happen to my friends
But instead they decided to kill their dreams and pretend
Two up to you, and I hope to see y'all at the end
Hopefully you'd be blessed enough to start over again
And it only gets better
Haters: I ain't in jail so you can stop writing me letters
Came out of a wet one to get my feet wetter
I guess I'm the only one who got my life together
I don't know how it slipped my mind— cause it's golden
You only got one shot, but keep rollin'
And just forget what happened before
Always remember it can happen some more
I want it all
From the time I hit rock bottom
To the paparazzi sayin', "I got him"
Best believe I go in
Yep, it ain't hard to tell
I want it all
Life: it's too short to wake up in the mornin' with regrets
So love the people who treat you right
Forget about the ones who don't
And believe that everything happens for a reason
If you get a chance: Take it
If it changes your life: Let it
Nobody said it would be easy
They just promised it would be worth it
