Let you meal like you wish but you can't even wash a dish
Now's my time to shine
I'll be there tonight
You'll get left behind
Too late, too late baby, bye bye
Now's my time to shine
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
You'll get left behind
You'll get left behind
As far back as I can remember you was never around
Now's my time to shine
Too late, too late baby, bye bye
Play the knees for the cheese like a savage
It was my mama, old dad plant the seed like a farmer
But if we going downtown niggas is ready to wheel
I'll be there tonight
With it, could've schooled me on pussy before I hit it
That day when you break out and finally get your cake
I ain't never heard once, can I help you with gas?
Shorty 'member me, now I'm seven digits bigger
when I lived my whole life apart from you
I didn't bother to respond 'cos I knew that you was gone
But too late baby, bye bye
It's too late, bye bye, oh babe
I wish you could have been there when I had my first fight
The eldest member of my family so I packed the tool
I'll be there tonight
But I don't let that stress me 'cos life is but a test, B
But we was all left in the dark, accepting the parts
Didn't have a job, honey fronted on the G O D
Oh, that's the way you tryin' to doo doo on a nigga
Niggas disrespect my crib droppin' ashes on the floor
But you love to eat and rest them stink ass feet
Of you we was able to get, affecting my heart
Forced to carry on and teach myself right from wrong
I ain't never heard X, can I buy you a meal?
Another half of beer I'm findin' behind the chair
'Cos most likely I'll give it back before the day is done
And every waken day, I'ma stay okay
Now's my time to shine
Now ya feelin' me because you're smoked out and high
Now's my time to shine
You'll get left behind
I'll be there tonight
You'll get left behind
Shorty racing, only hollering at cats who be lacin'
You'll get left behind
The other kid said he was gonna get his father
Now's my time to shine
It made a nigga feel manly when I smacked a fool
'Cos she ran the wrong route
Now I got the best birthday present when my ass born
Platinum artist status, mad cheese from Hilfiger
Seen a nigga make five quick calls to the dome
She had some shit with her, she was caught up in the glitter
Oh bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, yeah
In September it was back to school
Now if you broke you broke, you got five dollars, give me one
Or took me to a park with a ball and said hit it
Ride around all day, 'Dro-ed or hash
Nowadays you expecting to start, anew
Now she lost and turned out, rotten teeth in her mouth
I'll be there tonight
If I'm spendin' and bending, you should do it pendin'
See there's no explanation for the expiration
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Too late, too late baby, bye bye
She likes the lavish, no time for a brother livin' average
Too late, too late baby, bye bye
Brother come see me when you get five digits bigger
It's too late, bye bye
And blow up my telephone line like you was home
Too late you better check the due date
Too late, too late baby, bye bye
Life was kind of hard livin' in hell's backyard
