"What if god told you 
To write a masterpiece? 
Would you tell 'I'm you couldn't read?" 

There's only one life 
It's right here, it's right now 
What is pain 
Do you really wanna live this way? 
Do you really wanna live this way? 
Only one life 
It's right here, it's right now 
What is pain 
Do you really wanna live this way? 
Tell me do you wanna live this way? 

"Wise men say 
Life is what happens 
While you're busy making plans 
Life's not a rehersal 
Gotta live it while you can 
And getting a second chance 
Is my blame and circumstance 
Is that what men in the mirror 
Read it and chase for answears, hey! 
I could have defended me and the best 
My family's car crashed 
My brother fall getting stucked 
Perhaps then, turn up the van and loosing my day 
Shaking that our glass reverse to stand back 
But the wheels on the bus keep rolling 
Rolling all goin' aint nobody really knowin' 
It's just flowin' a moment that 
Can't be gone and admit it 
So you gotta give heart 
Never be timid, ahhh" 

There's only one life 
It's right here, it's right now 
What is pain 
Do you really wanna live this way? 
Do you really wanna live this way? 
Only one life 
It's right here, it's right now 
What is pain 
Do you really wanna live this way? 
Tell me do you wanna live this way? 
 [bad word] bout misdemeanors 
While millions of people starve 
Rather spend money shoppin' or sending gadgets to mars 
Wintertime keep our cars in heated garage 
For the homeless in the winter heat is just a mirage 
I ain't saying I can change the world 
Rappin' these bars but I can give a voice 
Support the people and get involved 
Increase the love decrease hatred 
And the scars that too many of us 
Carry all buried up in our hearts 
Brother we can do some or we can do none 
Ignorance is similar to a loaded gun 
So don't let it pop off or we're all done 
We've only got one" 

There's only one life 
It's right here, it's right now 
What is pain 
Do you really wanna live this way? 
Do you really wanna live this way? 
Only one life 
It's right here, it's right now 
What is pain 
Do you really wanna live this way? 
Tell me do you wanna live this way? 

"Your only got one life 
And now we takes 
Got [bad word] for self" 

Do you really wanna live this way? 
"this way" 
Only one life 
It's right here, it's right now 
What is pain 
Do you really wanna live this way? 
"this way" 
Do you really wanna live this way?

Only one life 
It's right here, "right here" 
It's right now, "right now" 
What is pain 
Do you really wanna live this way? 
"this way" 
Tell me do you wanna live this waaay? 
"Think about it."
