[Mase] 
Yo  just think if you could rewind time 
And start your life all over again 
What would you give and what would you keep? 
You heard me  what would you keep? 

[Loon] 
Yo  yo  if I could go back  I wouldn'ta sold no crack 
Wouldn'ta never put my hands around no gat 
But you know Loon  bein' all hard headed 
And don't listen  even if God said it 
I didn't have to stick with folks that sniff no coke 
I didn't have to fix the block when shit was broke 
Same cats I helped was twistin' smoke 
Now imagine if I went to school, went to class 
'Stead of bein' a young cat sent to blast 
Sent to slash criminal's necks in half 
For playin' dumb when I come to collect my cash 
And cuz of that cats will respect my past, I ain't playin' 

[Shyne] 
If I start from scratch I'd sign with Def Jam 
Nah, fuck am I saying? Puff's the best man 
Plus I'mma Bad Boy, I'm more like a bad man 
Put mo' nigga's in pits than Brad, man 
Can't dodge bullets? Too bad, man 
Shit, I'd a copped the five instead of the six 
That way wouldn't of crashed and killed my cousin 
Keep quiet instead of having the industry buzzin' 
Do a devil's advocate style, don't let 'em see you comin' 
Use the revolver when bustin' and sluggin' 
That way no evidence 
But fuck it, got money to be tried, worse come to worse 
Who God bless, no man curse, hatin' niggas, lay in the dirt 

[Mase & Meeno] 
Yo, if you could start your life from scratch (What? What?) 
Rewind time and still go back (It's time to eat) 
What would you change in the way that you live toda
