Stuck Mojo - Not Promised Tomorrow lyrics

Youth never learns the truth about life
All they see is money, hoes, a lot of hype
I can tell you things that are
Wrong and some are right
But I have a view of a different type

I seen him come up on the block
Slang the rocks for the cops
And my mother's overworked and
My pop's gone berserk
She puts on teeny weeny skirts for the money
That ain't funny
I got to stay alive do what I do to survive!

If I close my eyes will I rise?
If I don't that won't be no surprise
I live my life like my last
Learned many lessons but I have to laugh
Because you're not promised tomorrow!
Because you're not promised tomorrow!
Because you're not promised tomorrow!
Because you're not don't live for today

One life to live full of stress and strife
Obstacles of chaos any time, many kind
I can tell you things that are
Wrong and some are right
But I have a view of a different type

I seen him grow up kinda wild
A spoiled child living foul
And he's fed a silver spoon
And he still acts like a goon
I don't understand it son
Why must you carry a gun?
For the fun and the fame
Pulling triggers ain't no game

If I close my eyes will I rise?
If I don't that won't be no surprise
I live my life like my last
Learned many lessons but I have to laugh
Because you're not promised tomorrow!
Because you're not promised tomorrow!
Because you're not promised tomorrow!
Because you're not don't live for today

Fuck the dumb ditty dumb
Able bodies being bums
People always talking shit
Get yours if it's not legit
How you think the rich got rich?
Cry and bitch and pitch a fit
I say mind over matter and
Your pockets will be phatter!

If I close my eyes will I rise?
If I don't that won't be no surprise
I live my life like my last
Learned many lessons but I have to laugh
Because you're not promised tomorrow!
Because you're not promised tomorrow!
Because you're not promised tomorrow!
Because you're not live my life like my last
Because you're not
