Live It Now

[Intro]
Can I give you some information this morning?
The past does not exist, when you allow your past to cripple you
You are giving the enemy keys to a cage, with the door unlocked
And, the Father is saying, "Would you just would you just run outta that place?"
"I want you to run out of this cage," do you believe that this morning?
I believe the greatest war that we will face in our life is us against who we once were

[Verse 1]
Why do I allow my inner fear to interfere?
And let peoplе diss my dreams, 'til they disappear?
Listеn here, I don't know who else needs to hear this
Besides me, that is, but I know I need to share this, so here it is

[Verse 2]
Want the key to success? stop tellin' everybody, yes
Yes, it's sad, but it's true, try to make everybody happy, and everybody will be, but you
Don't let nobody ever steal your gratitude
'Cause, low lifes always hate to see you gainin' altitude

[Verse 3]
And, I hate to break it to you, but to someone you're a threat
But, don't let that hate break you, take it as a compliment
'Cause, your confidence'll make 'em guard they insecurities
Like a security guard, dawg, don't sweat it, let it be

[Verse 4]
Let it be ya' symmetry, yeah, a log on that fire
That inspires you to push higher, 'fore your time expires
'Cause, we only get a minute while we here to get it, homie
Turn your mess into a message, and your test to testimonies
Turn your pain into a purpose, what you think writin' these verses?
Why you waiting on your hearse, like life's a dress rehearsal?

[Chorus]
You better live it, now
You better live it, now
Your time is almost up, with every second tickin' down
Only get one life to live, there ain't no second time around
So, love the people 'round you, 'fore you six feet in the ground
So, you better live it, now
You better live it, now
If you got something to say, well then, you better spit it out
'Cause, tomorrow isn't promised, if you want to get it, now
They say life is what you make it, make sure that you make it count
You better live it, now

[Verse 5
'Cause, yesterday is over
Get past your past, man, quit lookin' back over your shoulder
You'll be grateful when you're older, if you don't, hateful and colder
Wear a mask, like everyday's the last day of October

[Verse 6]
I ain't one to say I told you, but I'm tellin' you
You better use your free time, wisely,'fore it turns into a cell for you
'Cause, thinkin' can imprison you, and turn into a hell for you
So, be mindful of what your mind is full of, then you'll never lose

[Verse 7]
Mind over matter, grind over talent
What you waitin' on? There ain't no better time than the present
Yeah, that's why it's called a present, 'cause you supposed to cherish it
So, turn your L's to lessons, baby, start sharin' your gift

[Chorus]
You better live it, now
You better live it, now
Your time is almost up, with every second tickin' down
Only get one life to live, there ain't no second time around
So love the people 'round you, 'fore you six feet in the ground
So, you better live it, now
You better live it, now
If you got something to say, well then, you better spit it out
'Cause, tomorrow isn't promised, if you want to get it, now
They say life is what you make it, make sure that you make it count
You better live it, now
