[00:32.93]I used to tell my homie
[00:34.18]Slow down time after time
[00:36.07]But he never would listen
[00:37.57]Until he got some time
[00:38.52]
[00:39.77]The life that he was living
[00:40.70]
[00:41.39]I knew it wasn't right
[00:42.64]
[00:43.32]The judge gave him that sentence
[00:44.32]
[00:45.07]And put him up for life
[00:46.01]
[00:47.63]You don't miss the water
[00:48.50]
[00:49.38]Til the well runs dry
[00:50.19]
[00:51.25]Don't miss the living til they die
[00:53.99]
[00:54.93]Don't know the reason
[00:55.80]
[00:56.49]Don't know why
[00:57.55]
[00:58.61]We just let life pass us by
[01:01.23]
[01:02.23]Cause you never know (never know)
[01:03.67]What you got (what you got)
[01:06.18]Until it's gone (gone away)
[01:08.63]
[01:09.44]Away away away away
[01:13.70]
[01:14.58]Long long gone
[01:17.07]Cause you never know (never know)
[01:19.07]What you got (what you got)
[01:20.75]Until it's gone away
[01:24.31]Away away away away
[01:29.43]Long long gone
[01:30.93]See my best friend used to stay with me
[01:32.74]Each and every day he'd chill with me
[01:34.11]Always told me to pray for me
[01:36.35]But I always thought that he'll be fine
[01:38.29]Now I got to watch his mother cry
[01:41.42]
[01:42.24]Cos she loved him child
[01:45.50]
[01:46.99]Don't miss the water
[01:47.76]
[01:48.51]Til the well runs dry
[01:49.51]
[01:50.25]Don't miss the living til they die
[01:52.75]
[01:53.81]Don't know the reason
[01:55.00]
[01:55.68]Don't know why
[01:56.74]
[01:57.43]We just let life pass us by
[02:00.36]
[02:01.36]Cause you never know (never know)
[02:03.67]What you got (what you got)
[02:05.17]Until it's gone away
[02:07.85]Away away away away
[02:11.41]
[02:11.97]Long long gone
[02:14.40]
[02:16.42]Cause you never know (never know)

[02:20.61]Until it's gone away
[02:22.73]
[02:23.30]Away away away away
[02:28.60]Long long gone
[02:30.72]So don't you take for granted
[02:32.97]The life you've been handed
[02:34.65]Be thankful and grateful
[02:35.65]Cause life goes on
[02:42.39]
[02:43.08]With or without you
[02:45.63]Plus there's so many people worse off than you
[02:49.19]With no chance of changing
[02:51.31]It's truly up to you
[02:59.38]Cause you never know (never know)
[03:02.20]What you got (what you got)
[03:04.21]Until it's gone away
