For the Moment

I just wanna be what I gotta be
I just wanna see what I gotta see
I just wanna do what I'm gonna do
Don't believe me, on God I'm the living proof
I'm just gonna live for the moment
Momma told me I was chosen
I'mma just do it for the Moment
Live it up for the moment like

Oh oh oh oh
One time for the Rich we gon' do it like
Oh oh oh oh
Two times for the family and the friends like
Oh oh oh oh

Since a kid momma told me I was chosen
Too different for these people so I became what they ignorin'
Run don't stop keep going, run Forrest
Won't stop till my momma go and whip the foreign
House on the hills it ain't a dream man I swore it
Latino blood up in my veins, yes I'm Salvadorian
These clothes imported walk up like I'm important
MeLo yeah we chosen thank you God for not ignoring
We won't stop till we make it
We won't stop till we take it
Only that real ain't no faking
Too many haters that keep hating
But we living life like we made it Yah yah we made it
It's MeLo in the building so we claim it
Aye, aye, we gone do it like

Oh oh oh oh
Two times for the family and the friends like
Oh oh oh oh
Put yo hands up high we gon turn it up
Oh oh oh oh
Put em up, put em up, we gon do it like

From the city of the Rich, east side of the Bay
MeLo for the taking, bro it's time for the play
And even if I ain't got the time or the space
I'ma ride til I make every dime out the game
Lalo be the name, and it's Lalo on the beat
Music been more than another way to speak
It's another way to breathe, another way to be
The passion got me active so my family could eat
I said in the past I was with it with a passion
Seven years ago, bro I really had some chances
Devil had his grip, so I fell into his trances
Now in God's grace, now I know I really have it
I really got this, nobody could stop this
Yeah ya know I got the key I been unlocked it
The doors I be opening, yeah ya know that I'm going in
Yeah

I just wanna be what I gotta be
I just wanna see what I gotta see
I just wanna do what I'm gonna do
Don't believe me, on God I'm the living proof
I'm just gonna live for the moment
Momma told me I was chosen
I'mma just do it for the Moment
Live it up for the moment like
Do it for the moment
(Live it up for the moment like)
Don't let nobody tell you that you can't
(Live it up, live it up, live it up, yah)
Even if the whole world doubts ya
(For the moment, yah for the moment)
You gotta get it, gotta get it, gotta get it, gotta get it, ha
(Live it up for the moment like)

Oh oh oh oh
One time for the Rich we gon' do it like
Oh oh oh oh
Two times for the family and the friends like
