Oh, oh, oh, oh Hey , when I think about all my time and all my struggle Through all my grinding and all my troubles Man I came out from nothing , all I had was a hustle With a blindfold trying to find pieces to the puzzle, no muzzle I tell it like it is, that's that, right or wrong, I'm a call it how I see it Don't forget that impossible is nothing, you're environment is irrelevant Just don't let your emotions over power your intelligent Refuse to give up, your mistakes will define you Down dictate where you heading, then remind you That time keeps ticking, let your mind keep clicking Never stop thinking, be aware of your decision Be aware of the collisions And the potholes hidin' in the road that you travel on your lifelong mission Just listen everyday like a snap shot is taken, If you live you could learn to just be patient [Chorus] Cause life is like a slide show And all the places I go And all the things that I know Through all the highs and lows Cause life is like a slide show And all the things that I've seen And all the things that I've dreamed You cant take away from me Cause life is like a slide show As I look back at a fly young cat Who could rap with a dream, look where I took that Beginnin' on Bankhead, then I spread out Vision in my head, all I had to do is to get it out When I walked out of my house, and look at my street All I see is the opportunity that lead me to truancy I ain't really have a roll model to influence me Uncle Joink, said next year it's just gonna be you in it As a juvenile caught cases so fluently Look at my life and learn from it, don't do it If I only knew back then what I know now, How much better life it would have been if I slowed down Maybe I have been Kanye, instead of seeing gun play But god got a plan, I'll understand one day, But one day of life like a snap shot is taken, If you live you could learn to just be patient [Chorus] Looking back on my life time See the slides go by Time to wonder why Looking back on where I've been I remember when You remember [Chorus] Cause life is like a slide show Cause life is like a slide show Have seen, have dreamed, oh life is like a slide show
