Livin' 4 The Moment Lyrics


[ verse 1: willie d ]Picture me broke and disgusted, livin' like a fuckin' bum
Raggedy clothes, not knowin' where my next meal comin' from
I want the American dream like dusty rolls
Got my eyes on paper, fuck these musty hoes
My foes die slower than an aids patient
To a tombstone my enemies lay adjacent
The police wanna see me in an early grave
But I ain't trippin' on 'em muthafuckin' pearly gates
Ways to get a nigga 'fore he get me
Always keep my 'stola with me
Never beg for my life if they muthafuckin' hit me
Face, are you with me? (hell yeah)
The d.e.a. tryin' to put me in a jail cell
(hell yeah) but I refuse to be locked up
(hell yeah) give me a quarter key rocked up
(hell yeah) money and murder, that's my motto
I take my chances in the ghetto, fuck the lotto
[ chorus: Scarface ]I live my life for the moment, fuck tomorrow

Still kill, beg, borrow
Money is power
Rocks is powder
Glock in trousers
Block is ours
Sold flour
Hood sours
Crime towers
Scream louder
[ verse 2: scarface ]Bein' broke got a muthafucka focused on the wrong things
Livin' illegal, honorin' the evil with this cold game
Twistin' muthafuckas up, killin' em even quicker
Niggas on a suicidal mission to get the scrilla
Anybody peeler, I'm still a homicidal killer
Mob with gorillas, servin' the fiends smokin' chillers
And I'm - so high - that I - can touch the sky
Above the fallin' rain
Let me explain, in these streets no pain
Murder your partner if he crosses you, nigga, do your thing
It's a struggle for position in this cold dark world
Survival of the realest geto boys and girls
So what you waitin' on, get your muthafuckin' ranks
And your muthafuckin' banks, serve your muthafuckin' hank
And your dank, I don't think the sun don't shine
In 1999 - so grind
Ain't no sense in dyin' without a dime
Listen to the muthafuckin' rhymes
[ chorus ][ verse 3: willie d ]Day dark, walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I fear nothin'
We all gotta die of somethin'
Don't blame me if I capitalize
Give me the dope and lock me up if I happen to rise
Despise any human that ain't acceptin' to my lifestyle
Put me out my misery, I might smile
Why plan the future when everyday brings a new opponent
I'm livin' for the muthafuckin' moment, DMG, get on it
[ verse 4: DMG ]Well i, nigga, I come to ride
Down for the south-side
Drive by your community
I'm doin' him, we bombin'
Droppin' on your muthafuckin' squadron
Heartless, bring these muthafuckas rigor mortis
For the moment, I think you twos are bonin', who want this?
Come on and let me know you really, really want it
I'm here, now for life, straight up and down, mangler
n-n-niggas jus' a s-s- strangler, hang you up
Niggas get smoked like herb
Inner cities to suburbs
Word em up, fuck em up, tired of bein' flat
With nothin' but these clothes on my back
(no scratch) fuck that with the middle finger
I'm tryin' to turn my grass greener
And fertilize my pocket size - for the moment
[ chorus ]

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
The Geto Boys are a gangsta rap group from Houston, Texas, consisting of Scarface, Willie D and Bushwick Bill. They are known for ultra-violent lyrical content and socially conscious messages. Their 1990 album, The Geto Boys, had to switch distributors from Geffen to Giant Records due to controversy over the graphic portrayal of rape, necrophilia, and murder in the song "Mind of a Lunatic." It was later released with alternate lyrics on iTunes and in their compilation CD, Uncut Dope. The Geto Boys (released by Rick Rubin's Def American Recordings, later re-named American Recordings) is actually a compilation, consisting mainly of ten tracks taken from their 1989 album Grip It! On That Other Level as well as two new songs and one song from their debut LP, Making Trouble.

In the early part of the decade, several American politicians attacked rappers, including the Geto Boys (though most famously Ice-T and 2 Live Crew). A high-profile incident in which Bushwick Bill (actually a dwarf) lost an eye in a shooting incident with his girlfriend helped sales for their third album, We Can't Be Stopped, which showed Bushwick on the cover being carted through a hospital by Scarface and Willie D. They responded to being dropped by Geffen on the title track, and "Mind Playing Tricks On Me" became a hit in the rap community.
