The greatest thing in this world is life 
And life is full of pain struggle and strife 
Decisions and moves you make gotta be precise 
Step careful son watch how you roll your dice 

The greatest thing in this world is life 
And life is full of pain struggle and strife 
Decisions and moves you make gotta be precise 
Thinkin' that you the man and you might see ice 
And that ain't nice 

(It's like that and uh 
It's like that and uh) 

Pharoahe Monch 
Never exceeding my recommended dosage 
When it comes to licking, selecting, chicken 
It's never what it seems when you're picking 
Cause you can't tell from the eyes 
Especially now they separate the legs from the wings and thighs 
Ain't no surprise in it 
You get it, with, cellophane wrapped tight over the meat 
They be like disguising it 
I'm sort of sticking to my old ways (true) 
Keeping my order score the chicken dark nowadays 
Even believing in retrieving in my own chicks 
It's, no need to be rude (shit) 
I let the butcher chop it up and key food 
And hit her with the keys if she's On Bended Knee like Boyz II Men 
I tell her I don't want to catch some vanilla poisoning 
I'm poised and when it's the opportune time 
Before I stuff my face 
Kneel my head over my plate, then I say my grace 
Pray up above 
Slip on my rubber glove and dine 
Polish off the meal and enjoy some wine 
Relax recline 
Yeah 

Prince Poetry 
Aiyyo most def, you know I love, gettin' it on 
(but not without the stretch) 
Don't need to be making that three letter catch (cool) 
Careful who I choose to make ooohs 
Better believe me love (we living in the paradise of fools) 

Yo Pharoahe (right?) Remember I met Yvette in Dallas, Tex 
(That cool queen long blonde chick with mad connects? No quest) 
Oh yes, she hooked hooked us to the game 'cause strange shit 
Was going down in town 
There was a pretty dear packin' pound cakes 
A cocoa butter babe with papes jewels a black Ac 
And mad niggaz was liking that 
Players tricking on that chicken and slippin 
And never to go far; cause Shante had the scar 
Now everybody knew why motherfuckers started droppin 
But nobody knew Shante's ex-husband, was needle poppin 
And on the other side of town, medical records was lost 
Blood samples was crossed and doctor's mix-ups was found 
Yvette said, "The six o'clock news covered the scam" 
Three families blew the fuze 
It was a psycho doctor at hand and insanity rules 
Only two to lay five on that man, and he's singin the blues 
He sings the blues, he sings the blues 

We're living in the world of frustration plus 
The lies lust gluttony and mistrust 
Situations we discuss about world domination reflect
Guns money greed and sex it all connects like a puzzle 
In the game of life, in the game, in the game of life 
In the game, in the game of life 

The greatest thing in this world is life 
And life is full of pain struggle and strife 
Decisions 

The greatest thing in this world is life 
And life is full of pain struggle and strife
