If Not Now, When? Lyrics by Xpertize

If Not Now, When?

2018

Ch- If Not Now, when/

Won none, lost ten/

Made it though, thick and thin/

Took it all on the chin/

Lost fam, lost friends/

All the things they could’ve been/

Road blocks and dead ends/

Just looking, for a way in/


V1- Gave myself a time frame, I can
Picture this/

Going hard in the paint waka
I can’t wait on no assist/

This a chance I can’t miss/

And I’m just speaking for myself/

I’m not a ventriloquist/

Im not speaking for someone else/

Man I’m done with the
Charades/

Time to man up, and get my bands
Up/

Like a parade watch fill the stands
Up/

I couldn’t live my life with filled with
Regrets/

Alex trebek/

And put my dreams in jeopardy/

Knowing I got the recipe/

During her pregnancy 🤰/

Promised myself to leave behind a
Legacy/

Glad the streets didn’t get the
Best of me/

The beautiful complexity/

Despite all the bullets trajectory/

That’s why this rap shit is more than

A necessity fr!

Ch- If Not Now, when/

Won none, lost ten/

Made it though, thick and thin/

Took it all on the chin/

Lost fam, lost friends/

All the things they could’ve been/

Road blocks and dead ends/

Just looking, for a way in/

V2- Playing Russian roulette/

I only got one shot/

Contemplating/

But when the cylinder stops/

It’s now or never/ (beats drop)

On a mission to fulfill all my
Endeavors/

That money goes fast as it comes I
Have to make it last forever/

Keith it’s no sweat/

The times they slept on the rhymes I
Was upset/

Took some time to adjust/

But It’s all part of the process/

Osborne in the slums ozzy/

A city full of bulls Scottie/

Where niggas got dreams of copping
Maserati’s/

Taking a shot was kamikaze/

My life wasn’t the Huxtables

In the pudding you’ll see the proof Bill
Cosby/

Couldn’t be gullible/

All that dinero won’t make you
Untouchable/

It’s hard to make a move when
Everything is dysfunctional/

Ch- If Not Now, when/

Won none, lost ten/

Made it though, thick and thin/

Took it all on the chin/

Lost fam, lost friends/

All the things they could’ve been/

Road blocks and dead ends/

Just looking, for a way in/
