Joyner Lucas, known for his thought-provoking lyrics and storytelling in rap, has released a new track titled “24 Hours to Live” along with an accompanying music video. The song was produced by Leo Son, ADHD Productions, Storm, and KXVI.
In “24 Hours to Live,” Joyner Lucas explores the concept of how one might spend their final day on Earth. The track poses the question of what an individual would do if they knew they had only one day left to live. This idea provides a unique and intriguing basis for the song.
The music video, which accompanies the track, adds a visual dimension to the storytelling, enhancing the song’s impact. While the concept is interesting, it’s important to note that some listeners have found the approach to be somewhat predictable and lacking depth. The concept of how one would spend their last day can spark various interpretations and emotions, and it’s a topic that can be explored in many different ways.
Joyner Lucas’s music often addresses complex themes and societal issues, and his storytelling abilities are widely recognized in the hip-hop community. “24 Hours to Live” is another example of his storytelling style and approach to lyricism. However, as with any form of art, individual opinions and interpretations may vary, and it’s always up to the audience to engage with the music in their own way.

Me and my niggas outside of the crib, blowin’ up smoke and rollin’ a few
Shootin’ some dice and makin’ it flip, we gettin’ ’em lit, you know it what it do (yeah, yeah)
One of my homies said, “I got a question, I wanna know, like what would you choose
If you had 24 hours to live then where would you go? And what would you do?” (Grr)
I’m ’bout to catch a few felonies, load up the trunk and then head to the Beverly’s
Hop out the whip and then rob a celebrity, take all his shit and then steal his identity (grrah)
Strap on a vest and go kill all my enemies, slap any hater that showed any jealousy
Shoot every broski that tried to get next to me (yeah)
After this shit, they all gonna remember me (grrah)
Stick up the bag and then empty the drawer (empty the drawer)
Get in the floor
Take from the rich and then give to the poor
Give them the shit that they couldn’t afford (Yeah)
Buy ’em all cribs and then give ’em a tour (give ’em a tour, skrr)
Whippin’ a Porsche
Skrrt on the cops, ain’t no flippin’ the law
Bury the opps and then dig up the corpse
Throw me a party with all of the bros, I done turned every day to a holiday (holiday)
I’ll have an orgy with all of the hoes who ain’t never wan’ give me the time of day (time of day)
Catch ’em all lackin’ and kidnap you rappers who told the police and cooperate (cooperate)
Break into prison and free all the hitters and give all them niggas a lobster plate (let’s go)
Pull up to the fuckin’ White House with an AK
Go inside and cut the lights out then I make way (yeah)
Tell the government to pipe down, we don’t play safe
Everybody on the block now get a payday
Stay ready and I’m on the prowl with a straight blade
Guaranteed the shit’ll go down like a mayday
Make ’em renovate the whole hood then I vacate
Lot of niggas doin’ no good but they maintain
I’ma gun down every pedophile
Wonder if I’ll get to heaven now, I’m a criminal
I’ll take every dead beat daddy, put ’em in the ground (whoa)
Niggas actin’ like they been around but they in and out (yeah)
I’ma run a couple hundred miles
Then I’m givin’ out hope to the people at the bottom that can never smile (whoa)
I can feel the clock runnin’ low, any minute now (whoa)
Everything I ever wanted, I’ma go and get it now, nigga, now (grrah, bah, bah)
And I’m ’bout to catch a few felonies, load up the trunk and then head to the Beverly’s (ayy)
Hop out the whip and then rob a celebrity, take all his shit and then steal his identity (bah-bah, bah-baow)
Strap on a vest then go kill all my enemies (whoa), slap any hater that showed any jealousy (whoa)
If you had 24 hours to live with it (whoa)
What would you do if it was you instead of me? (Grrah, bah-bah-bah)
What would you do? (24 hours)
What would you do? (24 hours)
What would you do? (24 hours)
I got a question, I wanna know, like what would you do? (24 hours)
Where would you go? (24 hours)
And what would you choose? (24 hours)
See, I got a question, I wanna know like what would you do? (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Would you go crazy because of it?
Kill every nigga you holdin’ a grudge against? (Grrah)
Line up the plug and then steal you a hundred bricks? (Bah)
Slap any nigga that did any sucka shit? (Bah-bah-bah)
Run in the crib and then take what you wanna get?
Load up the choppers and scheme on the government? (Grr)
24 hours is all the you gonna get
Would you go stupid or would you do none of it?
And I’m comin’ for every nigga that owe me cake
Better have every single penny, and don’t be late
All the runnin’ and hidin’ you do, it won’t be safe
We ain’t talkin’ and I don’t wanna negotiate
I’ma fuck all your baby mamas and procreate
Give your son a new little brother, I hope he hate
Got a bullet for every nigga that told me, “Wait”
No more ramen and OJ, I need a Kobe steak (grr)
Sick and tired of niggas braggin’, better give me your jewelry
If I don’t take it off then you’ll be givin’ it to me (bah)
I murder every bully that be gettin’ unruly
This for every nigga that thought they was livin’ a movie (grr)
Way too many on my list that was darin’ to move me
This for anybody that was swearin’ they knew me
I’ll take every motherfucker who did animal cruelty
Line ’em all up in a row, someone hand me the Uzi (grrah)
And you gon’ see what happens next
‘Cause when the clock hits stop I can laugh at death (ayy)
I got a bulletproof heart, I don’t have a vest (ayy)
Before I die, ask God if I passed the test (bah-bah, bah-bah)
Take all my money out the crib, then I cash a check (whoa)
Then give it all of it to my kids, that’s my last request (whoa)
If you had twenty-four hours of action left (woah)
Then tell me what you gon’ do if your ass was next? (Grrah, bah-bah)
What would you do? (24 hours)
What would you do? (24 hours)
What would you do? (24 hours)
I got a question, I wanna know like what would you do? (24 hours)
Where would you go? (24 hours)
And what would you choose? (24 hours)
See, I got a question, I wanna know like what would you do? (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Would you go crazy because it?
Kill every nigga you holdin’ a grudge against? (Grrah)
Line up the plug and then steal you a hundred bricks? (Bah)
Slap any nigga that did any sucka shit? (Bah-bah-bah)
Run in the crib and then take what you wanna get?
Load up the choppers and scheme on the government? (Grr)
24 hours is all the you gonna get
Would you go stupid or would you do none of it? (None of it, none of it, none of it)
Hey, Doc, what’s the news?
Doc says, “I have some bad news and some really bad news
The bad news is that you only have 24 hours to live”
Fuck, I can’t believe it, oh my God, what could be worse news than that?
Doctor says, “I couldn’t get ahold of you yesterday”
Hahaha, haha
