I used to tell my homie Slow down time after time But he never would listen Until he got some time The life that he was living I knew it wasn't right The judge gave him that sentence And put him up for life You don't miss the water Til the well runs dry Don't miss the living til they die Don't know the reason Don't know why We just let life pass us by Cause you never know (never know) What you got (what you got) Until it's gone (gone away) Away away away away Long long gone Until it's gone away See my best friend used to stay with me Each and every day he'd chill with me Always told me to pray for me But I always thought that he'll be fine Now I got to watch his mother cry Cos she loved him child Don't miss the water We just let life pass us by. So don't you take for granted The life you've been handed Be thankful and grateful Cause life goes on With or without you Plus there's so many people worse off than you With no chance of changing It's truly
