[Intro]
Haha (Word to God)
This is dedicated to all those who don't see it coming

[Chorus]
(Ha) You can live true, baby, you can (Ha) live trife (Word up, trife)
(Haha) Whatever way you chose, you got to leave your life
Ayo, you're runnin' out of time and you 'bout to cross
The finish line (Ha), the finish line (Word up)
You can live true, baby, you can live trife
Whatever way you chose, you got to leave your life
Ayo, you're runnin' out of time and you 'bout to cross
The finish line (Ha), the finish line

[Verse 1]
And, yo (Yuh), I can't afford to waste a second (Ha)
Steppin' with my eyes on n*ggas, checkin' on my weapons
Every millisecond (Ha) motherf*ckers say they true to this
But when they grab the microphone they sh*t sound like stupidness
Hah! Mad to pull another vicious scandal (Ha)
I know that you can't handle when I hip from other angles
Now, feel my hot wax, burning from my melting candles
You can't take the heat, so you switch from boots (Hah) to wearin' sandals
This is for example! (Hoooo) sh*t will make a n*gga curse (Hah)
When worse comes to worst, you be the first to disperse now!
You don't believe your man was livin' like that (Livin' like)
Hopin' you find that n*gga, see exactly where his heart was at
It's a damn shame (Ha) how son know your style (Ha), know your name
Watch how he pull your file, make you wish you never f*ckin' came now!
Even the hardest motherf*cker (Hah) has his final day
So kill that sh*t you talkin' and be about your f*ckin' way!
[Chorus]
You can live true, baby, you can live trife (Live trife)
Whatever way you chose, you got to leave your life
Ayo, you're runnin' out of time and you 'bout to cross
The finish line (Ha), the finish line (Ha)
You can live true, baby, you can live trife (Word up, right, right)
Whatever way you chose, you got to leave your life
Son, you're runnin' out of time and you 'bout to cross
The finish line (Ha), the finish line

[Verse 2]
Yo, everyday I see you on the block smokin' (Hah)
With a bunch of n*ggas scopin' on how they can split you wide open!
You don't even know what's goin' on up in your circle
Awful murder n*ggas itch to leave you black, blue and purple (Ha)
Your man came to put you on and tried to make you breathe
Hit you with some sh*t that left you flippin' mad in disbelief (Ha)
You just can't believe that n*ggas that you smoke with is on it
And the way they rass they really got to bust yo' sh*t! (Woo)
Thought your man was joking (Ha), paid no attention to the situation
Got with your crew and just continued smokin' (Boh)
Now your man sit and watch you panic!
In any other situation you'd be frontin' like you gigantic!
I guess all that frontin' is your main talent
It's apparent (Ha), he can see right through you like you transparent (Ha)
Huuh, ayo, you need to watch your back, you runnin' out of time
Watch your step, 'cause you only inches from the finish line
[Chorus]
You can live true, baby, you can live trife
Whatever way you chose, you got to leave your life
Ayo, you're runnin' out of time and you 'bout to cross
The finish line (Ha), the finish line (Hoo)
You can live true, baby, you can live trife (Can live trife)
Whatever way you chose, you got to leave your life
Son, you're runnin' out of time and you 'bout to cross
The finish line (Ha), the finish line

[Verse 3]
Now, there's about a million motherf*ckers on your trail
Quick to bust your sh*t for every single time your words failed! (Single time your words failed)
I'm watchin' all the moves you makin', f*ck the speculatin' (Ha)
Super b*tch n*gga, you just be fakin' if I'm not mistaken (Huh!)
Every move you fake you dig your grave a little deeper (Ha)
Come around me with that sh*t, I'ma flip it to my brother's keeper (Ha)
Listen to this: overstress my emphasis (Ha)
I insist to fix and (Huh) bring the noise as long as I exist (Hah)
Now you walk around the streets with all that sh*t you speak
And step inside the club just to receive the illest ass beatin'! (Hoh!)
Take a look around you get no type of sympathy
Impatiently! I sit and watch you die in your own iniquity! (Hah)
Now you out dead and stinkin', and your eyes are no longer blinkin'
Time caught up quick, with your little b*tch way of thinkin'! (Haaa, oooh)
Watch you diminish, while your n*ggas have to put a finish
On your misleadin' false image (Word up, aahhhh!)
[Chorus]
You can live true, baby, you can live trife (Word up, hah)
Whatever way you chose, you got to leave your life
Ayo, you're runnin' out of time and you 'bout to cross
The finish line (Word up), the finish line (Haa)
You can live true, baby, you can live trife (Live trife)
Whatever way you chose, you got to leave your life
Ayo, you're runnin' out of time and you 'bout to cross
The finish line, the finish line
You can live true, baby, you can live trife (Word up, word up)
Whatever way you chose, you got to leave your life (Uh-huh)
Ayo, you're runnin' out of time and you 'bout to cross
The finish line (Ha), the finish line (Word up)
You can live true, baby, you can live trife (Yeah, uh-huh)
Whatever way you chose, you got to leave your life (Yo)
Son, you're runnin' out of time and you 'bout to cross
The finish line, the finish line (Ha)
You can live true, baby (Word up), you can live trife (Live trife)
Whatever way you chose, you got to leave your life (Live your life now)
Son, you're runnin' out of time, and you 'bout to cross
The finish line (Haha), the finish line

[Outro]
Word is bond
Bond is life
You shall be willing to give your life
Before your words shall fail
All those who out here frontin'
Misleadin' they peoples
Actin' other than they really are
It will catch up to you player, word is bond
So that's
Specifically to all those fake motherf*ckers
Livin' out here on that bullsh*t
Trying to act like they know what the f*ck is going on
