[Fat Joe]
She was only sixteen, sixteen when I met her her, I was playin playin' the corner
Had to scream one of her niggas, like get up off her
She was a diamond in the rough, real neighborhood jewel
You would never see her out, 'less she comin comin' from schoolenter added
At first we started out like sisters and brothers
'Till'Til we finally let it out, out and started kissin kissin' and huggin huggin'
And your moms always dissin dissin' me, tryin tryin' to get rid a me
I guess she figured out, I had taken your virginityenter added
She was right, sexin sexin' all day
When they wouldn't let me in, we be playin playin' the hallway
TalkinTalkin' all day, bout 'bout the stupidest shit
Like if we got rich, what would we do with our chips?enter added
And who was our favorite rappers, it was Nas at the time
We would memorize every single bar of his rhymes
Summertime, kids is playin playin' in the park
I might just ride by, let 'em sprinkle the truck
And Life Goes On

[Chorus]
She was sixteen, maybe seventeen
I was eighteen, nineteen maybe a little bit more
(was she a little more), haha ..
Yeah, huh, but Life Goes On life goes on

She was sixteen, maybe seventeen
I was eighteen, nineteen maybe a little bit more
hahahaha, yeah, yeah, woof, uh, yo(Was she a little more)
But Life Goes OnYeah, huh, but life goes on
[Fat Joe]She was sixteen, maybe seventeen
I was eighteen, nineteen maybe a little bit more
Yeah, uh, yo, but life goes on

This shit got deeper, you was havin havin' my seed
I couldn't wait to see this little nigga look like me
Sure enough a little fat guy named D'Ryan D' Ryan
Kept us up all night, always bitchin bitchin' and cryin cryin'

I was still slingin slingin' fast, the "Flow Joe" came out
Things changed, changed wasn't the same, wanted to hang out
The groupies was chasin chasin' me, rudely awakened me
No longer safe for me, this new world is takin takin' meenter added
You deserve much more than to be mistreated
I was a fucked up nigga, nigga but at least I admit it
Just to be cool, I helped you through school
So you can have your own career, career and don't depend on no foolenter added
Life seems crazy when you look back
I pray to God, that you hook up with a good cat
We can't look at, who's right or who's wrong
But I thought I'd let you know through this song
That Life Goes On life goes on
[Chorus - w/ variations]She was sixteen, maybe seventeen
I was eighteen, nineteen maybe a little bit more
Ooh, but life goes on
[Fat Joe]She was sixteen, maybe seventeen
I was eighteen, nineteen maybe a little bit more
Yeah, but life goes on

So I moved on to the next phase a of my life
I finally met the women women, I would make my wife
It was love at the first sight, in the worst way
Shorty kept holdin holdin' out, had me thirsty, mercyenter added
Mi shari amor, whisper in my ear
Tell me baby girl girl, is it me that you adore adore?
Used to stay up all night, night just bumpin bumpin' and grindin grindin'
MakinMakin' plans for the future, how to hustle my rhyme inenter added
Used to drive cross 'cross state for like a G a G.A. show
A well known famous rapper, rapper but my pocket's is broke
But we kept grindin
Slowly grindin', slowly but surely, kept climbin climbin'
Pun broke in the doors, now we headlinin headlinin'

I'm lettin lettin' everybody know your know, you're my sweetest possession
How you kept me real strong through the deepest depression
Paid no mind to your friends, cause friends 'cause their words is trife strife
I hold you down for the rest of your life
Cause Life Goes On'Cause life goes on
[Chorus - 4X, - w/ variations, until fade]She was sixteen, maybe seventeen
