Life Lyrics

    Yeah, it's like this..
    Chubb rid-dock, nine-seven on lid-dock
    Son, rock..

    [chorus: billy lawrence *sung*]
    Do you know, where you're goin to?
    Do you like the things that life is showin you?
    Where are you goin to?
    Do you know, what you're lookin for?
    Do you like the things that life has in store?
    Chubb holds it down for sure..

    [chubb rock]
    Ever since mom kissed me and said, "seek life!"
    My mind had an idea like that kid with the kite
    No 'caine slingin, strong-arm bringin check my eyes
    Redness done, so i can script "my life" like mary blige
    I've, been around the world in 90 days, pro-rated
    Like prince no shame for that past few sheila's i've dated
    Made it, with only one but i'm foreshadowing the rhyme
    Like a nice pirollo(?) wine, life takes time
    I'm, one of two and to see it a one who's part of many
    The quarters of my thoughts will cost more than a damn penny
    Any debate we can correlate as to my release date
    A nine-seven slate, new york state will have to check me
    It's been some time since the break of the dawn
    The genre has definitely changed since i've been gone
    Whether, bad or good the flow remain tight
    So i can come and drop my li-ight, li-ight

    [chorus]

    [chubb rock]
    Well in the past black men used to work for (?)
    My age group was plotting to obtain dead nixons
    The plot, had three vectors for young prospectors
    School, entertain, or become hannibal lectors
    Stressors, used to stress the best, cess wine
    But at that particular time i chose to use my mind
    Goody too, size twelve shoe the troy ave grew
    Waited 'til, after eighteen to introduce the brew
    Downed the suds and gave a street buzz
    High in the +forrest+ but stupid is as, stupid does
    And, that's all i have to say about that
    Flipped a pulitzer prize script and started rap
    Simplistic at first, and the knowledge came later
    Rob-ski, dave wit, and swanny on the fader
    The struggle was on but the fame was in sight
    And the tunnel had a light that distinguished my life

    [chorus]

    [chubb rock]
    The low point was mad low when i lost james los
    Spent eighteen years livin next to this high-pro bro
    And that's all i got to say, about that
    While i give thanks to the man that my brother and i'm back
    Onward, to the medals while the boys aged the mix
    To the mental utopia, so walk past the six
    And the rhyme and the flow, must stay real tight
    Like it's always been in my li-i-ife, my life

    [chorus]
