[** feat. B.o.B.:] [Meek Mill:] Yeah, you could be here one day, gone any minute. That's why I live everyday like it's my last. Ha, yeah! [B.o.B:] Well, you could be here one day, gone in a minute. Cause life is so short but it's long as a minute. See I'm (See I'm), I'm just livin' at the speed of light. (Just livin') Just livin' at the speed of light. And I will never waste a minute, I'm never give up and I'm breakin' every limit. Plus I'm, I'm just livin' at the speed of light. (Yeah) I'm just livin at the speed of light. [Meek Mill:] Speedin' in the fast lane, watchin' through my rear-view. Thinkin' about the past man and all the shit I did do. Shit that could've took my life from me, that I lived through. Cases that I coulda' caught, cracks that I done slid through, and been to. Struggles, I did came from the main one. Once the day my dad died, I'd never been the same son. Turned me to a man young, cause I ain't understand some. Changes I was brought through, streets that I was forced to. You could be here one day, gone in a minute. That's why I get that money, spend it like I print it. Ball 'til I fall, 'til the day I diminish. I ain't never gonna stop, I push it to the limit. [B.o.B:] Well, you could be here one day, gone in a minute. Cause life is so short but it's long as a minute. See I'm (See I), I'm just livin' at the speed of light. (Just livin') Just livin' at the speed of light. (Yeah) And I will never waste a minute (Never), I'm never give up and I'm breakin' every limit. Plus I'm, I'm just livin' at the speed of light. (Yeah) I'm just livin at the speed of light. [Meek Mill:] They gave my nigga 20 years, man that wasn't even right. Got him in the hell hole, livin' at the speed of light. Prayin' that the time fly so he can see the light. See his kids, meet a wife, all over a ki of white. But why you think they take that time from you, cause you need it right? And you can't get it back, so how they give a nigga's life? Like you gonna live again, grow up be a kid again. That's why I never waste time, I cherish every minute and. Pray to God faithful though, man had that shit, I make, I blow. I don't even take it slow, 'cause any given day could go. And I could meet my death date, feel my last breath take. That's why I go get it now, I be like fuck wait. [B.o.B:] Well, you could be here one day, gone in a minute. Cause life is so short but it's long as a minute. See I'm (See I), I'm just livin' at the speed of light. (Just livin') Just livin' at the speed of light. (Yeah) And I will never waste a minute (Never), I'm never give up and I'm breakin' every limit. Plus I'm, I'm just livin' at the speed of light. (Yeah) I'm just livin at the speed of light. [Meek Mill:] From where the good die young, and the bad don't even last at. Where the young niggas 16 and over die fast at. I was made there, and raised there but moved past that. Livin' at the speed of light, it look like a flashback. I done got money, went broke, and got the cash back. Had it I was cool though, lost it I got laughed at. That's why I never ever cherish nothin' I could have back. Thankful for my life though, I wish that I could stash that. Yeah, shit I'm just livin' at the speed of life. Ballin' hard to see the light, be here today deceased tonight. I just hope when God come arrest me that he read my rights. Reads my wrongs, keep me right, send me home, believe me right. [B.o.B:] Well, you could be here one day, gone in a minute. Cause life is so short but it's long as a minute. See I'm, I'm just livin' at the speed of light. Just livin' at the speed of light. And I will never waste a minute, I'm never give up and I'm breakin' every limit. Plus I'm, I'm just livin' at the speed of light. I'm just livin at the speed of light.
