[Chorus:]
  You won't believe the things I've seen
  Far beyond your wildest dreams
  I've seen chaos and order reign supreme
  I've seen the beauty of the universe
  so peaceful and serene
  in seconds turn to violence and screams
  
  I've seen true genius, too often to lose the meaningless
  appreciation of this mediocre nation
  I've heard the mind is repetition,
  of empty words without tradition
  Turned original verbs into submission
  I smelled this malignerance addiction,
  but I guess I wouldn't be right
  if I said the blunt was like a baby pipe
  There ain't gon' be no revolution tonight
  Half of my warriors as high as a kite
  Lost and they lost all they fight
  And I've tasted, the bitter tragedy of lives wasted
  And men who glimpsed the darkness inside, but never faced it
  And it's a shame that most of y'all are followin sheep
  Wallowin deeper than the darkness, you're fallin asleep
  
  [Chorus:]
  You won't believe the things I've seen
  Far beyond your wildest dreams
  I've seen chaos and order reign supreme
  I've seen the beauty of the universe
  so peaceful and serene
  in seconds turn to violence and screams
  
  I've seen and experienced things
  that'll push the average to the edge and swan dive to death
  I'm two guys, multiplied by ninety-three guys
  Evenly balanced seein evil equally in each eye now
  Maybe I'm the most thorough worker on the job to you
  or maybe I'm the one, who was plottin to rob you
  The fear of this beatdown, the women on no cash to floss
  makes most of y'all hustle ya ass off
  From nothin to two mill', in five years I'll live to see it
  vanish in six months, with no tears believe it
  I'll rock, twenty-eight years before the Feds can lay a trace
  See they plan is to erase me, just to replace me
  
  Life! Your heart is one with your brain
  Emotional or reason, now which one do you obey?
  Life! Somebody callin you insane
  When overwhelmed and blessed, burst in tears of happiness
  
  Yo, yo, I've seen relationships that's so sick
  Life long friendships so cha-o-tic
  Thug cat bangin this chick but won't kiss
  Drinkin her spit, when coppin a fix for dope bliss
  I got a knife and a bat, to bust your brain, put a knife in your back
  "Once in the Life" I was trifle like that
  like my man Troy, who lost his days
  shootin dice on worldly ways
  and ended up in a early grave
  Because once in a lifetime is rough
  Twice in a lifetime you combat the ghost of mistrust
  Mentally cuffed, thrust by a cop thinkin he tough
  You bust, Amadou Diallo is us, and what
  now I'm on my knees, beggin' "God, please!
  Save me from the fires of hell!
  Let water water soul prevail" - cos I can't take no more
  Who's that knockin, at, my door?
  Is that you, Pete from Cobb's Creek, who died in my sleep?
  We was playin for fun, now it's keeps
  Like my man Mark I beat to death wrapped in a carpet
  and left in the garbage, now that's cold-hearted
  Ask Book he saw it, "Yo black I ain't seen (shit)
  Kids in the 6, they flip for nonsense"
  Poke an icepick, smokin that (shit) since preschool fool
  and packin a tool, (fuck you) Mom Dukes it's cool
  
  [Chorus:]
  You won't believe the things I've seen
  Far beyond your wildest dreams
  I've seen chaos and order reign supreme
  I've seen the beauty of the universe
  so peaceful and serene
  in seconds turn to violence and screams
  
  Life! Your heart is one with your brain
  Emotional or reason, now which one do you obey?
  Life! Somebody callin you insane
  When overwhelmed and blessed, burst in tears of happiness
