Dreams bigger then the house that I grew up in Bigger then the city where you lose or win 1 of a kind born leader you can never get a duplicate doubted by my own what I thought became lucrative every night I prayed every night I slaved knew I had to pay for my way to be paved sight seeker & my mind deeper ego killer mind strong with divine features while on scene watch for Judas greed designed to fail aint the way I think now I have a daughter pray I get to see her at the alter educated woman watching her chase all her dreams pray on my knees while the iii on my jeans vision seen time for war never hit the floor lions roar baby I'm in your face like its maybelline crucified today later applaud for my bravery if life doesn't murder me I pray I age gracefully Hook. Call it how I see it (I'ma do it big) Another body On the cement (I'ma do it big) Another homie in the precinct (I'ma do it big) Put that on my mama (I'ma do it big) Verse 2. It took me time turned my pain into a goldmine rap gave us stories but nobody ever told mine I told my granny on her death bed have her last name attached to some legendary changes before they knock my brains out of my braids make a million fuck on my bitch & blow on my haze not 1 bit of gangsta I'm just stuck in my ways hope to be thuggin in my mansion Colorado Branson men cover their face like a phantom for the ransom life is pretty ugly but I got to stay handsome Dinner date with karma death is her sister fuck them both Its just me against the world til the ending Put my trust in the devil with the white camrey pray I reap what I sow start living where the sights sandy my girl want to fuck me more then being eye candy give my mama credit for the way that I parent but I'm more like my dad that's apparent til I parish out jumanji I'ma cherish Every moment I'm fearless let my mind stretch with my time length cause I gotta do it big that's what God said Hook. Call it how I see it (I'ma do it big) Another body On the cement (I'ma do it big) Another homie in the precinct (I'ma do it big) Put that on my mama (I'ma do it big)

about

On the road to creating & releasing Papa J. Ruiz's debut album titled "Speak No Evil" he has decided & understands the fans are everything and they do not deserve to be deprived of Motivational Music, with that being said he is releasing this unorthodox EP for the streets to gradually understand bigger picture he is painting.

The title of this EP is very self explanatory, "YOUR MOMENT IS NOW" we as people always believe that tomorrow is promise or as if some superhero will fly down and save them from their problems. This EP embodies the awareness of realizing that nothing is promised and NOW is the time for you to make change.
