Runnin'

[Chorus: Dion Jenkins]

Got to live for today 'cause tomorrow ain't promised to me

Don't just want a piece I want my whole destiny

(If you got it) I'm gon' take it

(If you're in it) you're coming with me

(Bench warmers) get no playing time

(No sleeping) 'til I cross the line, I'm running

[Verse 1: The Game]

With 99 miles left, on the Avis rental car

Blowing horns like Miles Davis

At the pearly gates, God let me in

Give me a room by Aaliyah's with ESPN

I know I got more sins than two lesbians

Been back and forth across the border like Mexicans

But (I'm running) like New York pedestrians

Trying not to scuff my Nike Air checks again

It's funny how niggas be the best of friends

And fall out over pussy and wanna dead they man

One of my niggas in the grave the other one in the pen

She fucking my enemies inside my homeboy's Benz

Now she begging God's mercy 'cause she ain't listen to Nas

And never heard about Ike with the Iverson jersey

He got a cousin named Jason that rock the Gary Payton

Now the same trifling bitch is a HIV patient, true story

[Chorus: Dion Jenkins]

Got to live for today 'cause tomorrow ain't promised to me

Don't just want a piece I want my whole destiny

(If you got it) I'm gon' take it

(If you're in it) you're coming with me

(Bench warmers) get no playing time

(No sleeping) 'til I cross the line

[Verse 2: Tony Yayo]

If I get knocked with my gun, nigga, I'm running

If I catch a murder one, nigga, I'm running

Homicide come around and they keep on coming

That's why I'm out of state and I keep on running

I ain't Nelly, but my Desert Eagle's on, girl

Just dropped bail, traveling the world

When I sign my deal I said fuck jail

I went on tour to Barcelona and Brazil

This shit real, fuck an appeal

D's want my head like that bitch in Kill Bill

Sling dope, sling crack and them E pills

That's why I'm on the low like a damn navy seal, I'm running

[Chorus: Dion Jenkins]

Got to live for today 'cause tomorrow ain't promised to me

Don't just want a piece I want my whole destiny

(If you got it) I'm gon' take it

(If you're in it) you're coming with me

(Bench warmers) get no playing time

(No sleeping) 'til I cross the line, I'm running

[Verse 3: The Game]

'Cause I gotta pack them shows

And Dre told me ain't no coming back from gold

So I gotta get my album in place

My G-Unit features, my Eminem sixteen, my Dr. Dre beats

And it was two years from today when I started rhyming

And took my demo to Suge and he ain't sign me

Niggas threatening my life like it's hard to find me

See me shining in the hood like twenty inch Lexanis

My mom said I'm hard head, I don't follow the rules

Why should I when Reebok giving niggas they own shoes?

And I'm dealing with the same problems 50 Cent got

Yayo in jail and they think I'm trying to take his spot

I'm in the studio laughing at Chris Rock

Then I turn on MTV and see Soulja Slim shot

And niggas trying to gun me down in the rim shop

'Cause I just want the same recognition that the Crips got

They say I'm the next in line and if I get shot

Then I go out as the Bobby Fischer of hip hop

Make your chest move

Sylvia Rhone and Kevin Lyle slept cool

Jimmy Iovine was the best move

[Chorus: Dion Jenkins]

Got to live for today 'cause tomorrow ain't promised to me

Don't just want a piece I want my whole destiny

(If you got it) I'm gon' take it

(If you're in it) you're coming with me

(Bench warmers) get no playing time

(No sleeping) 'til I cross the line, I'm running

[Outro: Dion Jenkins]

If you got it

If you're in it

Bench warmers

No sleeping

I'm running
