[Verse 1]
This is the manuscript
Pull it out when the candles lit
Hold onto my momma's hand
She won't know how to handle this
Hug both my brothers as tight as you can
Don't ever let them get divided again
I wanna see Vinnie become everything that I couldn't
That is my final demand
If I know the man, then he'll find the strength
He'll take what I left‚ fill in the blanks
Tell both of my dads‚ they were the best
I'm sorry I left without a "Thanks"
My biggest regret was constantly searching for paradise
Instead of learning to cherish life
I hope that you do not do the same
Call up your friend and go share a slice
Trying to balance at scary heights
Eventually‚ wind gonna blow
And if I was sad at the end, I
Hope you remember my soul
If this is the day that I go
Don't you dare worry 'bout wishin' me well
I'll be in the Heavens giving them hell
I'll be in the Heavens giving them hell
[Chorus]
All my life, all my life‚ all my life
I just needed some love
All my life, all my life
No one ever seemed to see who I was
All my life, all my life
I've been climbing just to show you I can
All my life‚ all my life
Was for you, and you don't know who I am

[Verse 2]
But that's okay
Long as you make it out
I didn't go the safest route
If you wanna take your shot
Boy, you better make it count
Make it real, don't make it up
Don't lose yourself to make a buck
I've seen love turn into hate
When the love don't make enough
Give your trust, and it will
Come back nine times out of ten
Ten percent will up and leave
Better off without 'em then
Out of sight, out of mind
What you want, go out and find
Don't wait 'til tomorrow
'Cause by then you might be out of time
I done wrote a thousand rhymes
Tryin' to figure out my self
And still nobody knows how to help
So, I became what I needed most
But still, I never got what I needed most
[Chorus]
All my life, all my life, all my life
I just needed some love
All my life, all my life
No one ever seemed to see who I was
All my life, all my life
I've been climbing just to show you I can
All my life, all my life
Was for you, and you don't know who I am
