   Postal border was makin' me mad
   So I get up in my cruiser, broke out of the pad
   Rolled to the West Side to check out my boys
   Twenty brothers in the park, all bringin' the noise
   Stepped out the car, Levi's saggin'
   Gold around my neck with my limb-walk laggin'
   Walked up on my boys with the old E chillin'
   The box with the big beats and my boys started illin'
   A hoop game started so I jump in
   Had the hoods' toughest team so I just had to win
   Diz to the outside, 2Pac up the center
   A ten minute game and we were the winners
   The boys started smackin', talkin' that slack and
   till he see my posse and the suckers started backin'
   Tried to say we cheat, because he got beat
   Another lightweight sucker that can handle defeat
   People wonder why I choose to live the hype
   It's not to understand, it's just a day in the life
   Kick it - it's just a day in the life

   Finally I'm on vacation and school is through
   So here I am, on Monday mornin' with nothin' to do
   Tried to get outta my bed, but I can't move
   Ya see I'm stuck to my matress like crazy glue
   So there I lay, for half the day just thinkin'
   Got up to brush my teeth cause my breath started stinkin'
   But I was all alone so it wasn't no thing
   Got up to take a shower and heard the phone ring
   Picked it up, the salutations, little bit frustrations
   Who could be disturbin' me on my vacation?
   Speakin' on the phone in an aggravatin' tone
   Now I know what Michael meant by leave me alone
   So I'm askin' who is it? and the answer shocks me
   It was the voice of my homeboy Roc-T
   Him and Dizzy had been waitin' for me
   Had a show at three and now I'm late as can be
   Said I have to take a shower, I'll go ahead and take it
   If I leave within the hour, I still might make it
   I'm rollin' in a sweatsuit, wasn't tryin' to get cute
   Hopped on to the stage and said: "Sorry that I kept you"
   I started rappin', girls started clappin'
   Couldn't wait to finish so I could start mackin'
   Jumped off stage, picked up the girl for the night
   Huh, that's how I'm livin', a day in the life, come on
   A day in the life

   Stretch white limo hits the colessium
   A crowd full of people sayin: "I can't wait to see him"
   Who is in the limo, who are they talkin' about?
   Strictly Dope in the house, hear to turn the party out
   We get out the car and can barely stand
   Cause everywhere I look are screamin' fans
   Girls on my tip but I really don't sweat 'em
   They'll tear my new clothes if your bodygurad'll let 'em
   Hit backstage with two minutes to spare
   Just enough time to grip a breath of fresh air
   We hear the introduction, the audience is loud
   I stepped out on the stage and then I moved the crowd
   Winners all over, we tried to leave the scene
   but there's a whole crowd of people at the limousine
   Pen and paper in my face, I couldn't be mean
   So I was signin' autographs at the age of seventeen
   People wonder why I choose to live the hype
   It's not hard to understand, it's just a day in the life
   Kick it - it's a day in the life
  
   Kick it, kick it, kick it
  
   (2Pac)
   Coolin' with my posse at the neighborhood disco
   Talkin' to a cutie as I'm sippin' on my cisco
   Askin' me to dance but I keep on sayin' "No"
   Hate to dance fast, I only like to do it slow
   Dizzy's on the dance floor, funky, funky motion
   Girl keeps on sweatin' me with sexual kind of totions
   Roc is signin' autographs makin' girlies dizzy
   Crowd sweatin' Strictly Dope cause we're gettin' busy
   Suckers wanna battle us, we move in silence
   Strictly Dope is positive, we're tryin' to stop the violence
   Started feel tipsy, I'm lookin' for the door
   The Cisco had me dizzy, I stumbled to the floor
   And more I try to sit up, the less I seem to get up
   My stomach starts to turn and my head feels wit' up
   The room begins to spin, I pass out for the night
   Just another way of livin' a day in the life, kick it

   Knew I was a genius, soon as you seen this
   Avoid hoe's value, don't have to redeem this
   Teenage terror, no room for error
   A girl start dissin', and I SCARE HER!!
   Risin' like inflation on your favorite station
   Rap is my forte and my recreation
   Girls wanna kiss me, suckers wanna diss me
   My mother didn't want me to be, but I'ma emcee
   The ladies desire, emcees admire
   That's why many hate me and call me liar
   Hoods of the hype-tip, girls on the ill-trip
   I'm through rockin' this whack, so that's it
   I am the high type, my style is so right
   It's not hard to understand, it's just a day in the life
