I remember how it all beganI used to sing dirty raps to my East Side fansBack then I knew ya couldn't stop this rapNo MC could rock like thatThen the new style came, the bass got deeperYa gave up the mike and bought you a beeperDo ya wanna rap or sell coke?Brothers like you ain't never been brokePeople wanna say it's just my timeBrothers like me had to work for mineEight years on the mike and I'm not jokin'Sir Too Short comin' straight from OaklandCalifornia, home of the rockEight woofers in the trunk, beatin' down the blockShort dog, I'm that rappin' manI said it before and I'll say it againLife is too shortToo shortLife is too shortLife is to some people unbearableCommittin' suicide and that's terribleWas it much too much or nothing' big?If ya live my life, you'd be fightin' to liveLife is to me my main assetI be doin' all right and keep it just like thatChill out at the house and pump that bassI'm tryin' to get rich as I rock the placeEverybody's got that same old dreamTo have big money and fancy thingsDrive a brand new Benz, keep your bank right hereNever hear me stutter once because I talk real clearIt's on you, homeboy, watcha gonna do?You can take my advice and start workin', foolOr you can close your ears and run your mouthAnd one day, homeboy, ya soon find outLife is too shortToo shortLife is too shortLife is too short, would you agree?While I'm livin' my life, don't mess with meIt's been a long time, baby, since I first got downBut I still keep makin' these funky sounds'Cause I don't stop rappin', that's my themeI make a lot of money, do you know what I mean?Like this, complicated ya must stay upYa asked a simple question boy, don't say, What?Ya only live once and ya callin' it hellPoliceman tryin' to take ya to jailYou could give a man time but you don't knowI a matter of time, I'll be runnin' the showNow another young buck wants to be on topMakin' big money, slangin' hopThe task force tryin' ta peel your capTurn around, homeboy, ya better watch your backLife is too shortToo shortLife is too shortYou can take back all the things you giveBut ya can't take back the days you liveLife is to some peole who've been on earthLivin' every single day for what it's worthI live my life just how I pleaseSatisfy one person I know, that's meWork hard for the things I achieve in lifeAnd never rap fake when I'm on the mike'Cause if a dream is all you got, homeboyYa gotta turn that dream into the real McCoyNot time to waste, just get on that caseYa can't be down 'cause ya need to tasteA good life livin' like a king on a throneGettin' everything ya want and tryin' to have all your ownSo life, don't be stupid though'Cause when ya waste it, you'll knowLife isLife isAll right, that's it
