Feat Billy Cook |
| [00:07.20] |
This for all my G's and my n***as that ride with me |
| [00:16.89] |
Only God feel the pain and only he can really see |
| [00:23.10] |
Through the eyes of a child |
| [00:26.16] |
A baby born wild |
| [00:31.23] |
Gangsta s**t flow through his blood and no one had to show him how |
| [00:37.35] |
Kill or be killed where I come from ain't no in between |
| [00:42.66] |
Why trade the world just to be a d**e fiend |
| [00:48.39] |
H*es have a child just to take a n***a change |
| [00:55.23] |
Twelve years later he want to know his daddy name |
| [01:00.84] |
Maximum security prison how we get to see |
| [01:08.25] |
The only man resemble him and this s**t here ain't on T V |
| [01:12.24] |
Your favorite actor don't play this part |
| [01:15.00] |
If you never live to sit you can't say his heart |
| [01:19.02] |
You don't have to believe me |
| [01:20.43] |
Believe me |
| [01:21.30] |
Unless you want to believe me |
| [01:23.43] |
Believe me |
| [01:24.36] |
But it's real |
| [01:27.42] |
It's so real |
| [01:28.47] |
It's all real |
| [01:29.97] |
Yeah |
| [01:31.59] |
Little girl |
| [01:33.06] |
So precious and innocent to the world |
| [01:37.89] |
Get swallowed up and sucked up by this world |
| [01:39.72] |
Little girl you hide your pain with all them games |
| [01:46.32] |
Gettin' high and sellin' ya soul who can you blame |
| [01:53.25] |
N***a love you what do they love what you do |
| [02:03.45] |
It's aiight boo I know you gotta get paid too |
| [02:08.28] |
It's a long road |
| [02:10.50] |
Full of n***as and h*es |
| [02:14.52] |
Gotta be strong |
| [02:16.20] |
Cuz It's so easy for you to be gone |
| [02:17.94] |
Not here no more |
| [02:19.26] |
You not breathing so yo not here no more |
| [02:21.60] |
You touch no more |
| [02:22.23] |
You feel no more and you don't fear no more |
| [02:25.83] |
Not here no more |
| [02:27.12] |
I know you don't want to hear dis |
| [02:28.53] |
But somebody got to tell ya some real s**t |
| [02:35.31] |
Not sugarcoated |
| [02:38.76] |
Cuz where I come from s**t ain't sweet |
| [02:51.48] |
You got a choice and it ain't s**t for you in them streets |
| [03:00.45] |
Black women be a momma to ya little babies |
| [03:05.52] |
Get on ya knees and pray to God things change daily |
| [03:10.71] |
We ain't tryin to preach to ya |
| [03:13.35] |
Just tryin' to reach to ya |
| [03:17.49] |
See all of us are blessed with somethin' |
| [03:21.33] |
But most of us don't take two seconds out of our days |
| [03:26.22] |
To try to imagine somebosy elses hard times |
| [03:29.82] |
Because ya too busy worried about cha own |
| [03:34.02] |
If ya wanna know what real is |
| [03:35.43] |
Real is experiencing good times and hardaches and being |
| [03:40.29] |
Able to balance them boats |
| [03:43.14] |
But at the same time realizing that the world will continue to |
| [03:51.39] |
Spin with or without you |
| [03:56.34] |
Lend me your ears give me your spirit your conscience has to pay |
| [04:05.58] |
Attention to what I mention |
| [04:10.89] |
I'm your eye opener the hope for the one to will never see the suburbs |
| [04:17.57] |
And if good life is only the word |
| [04:20.37] |
The phrase the life that somebody else is living |
| [04:24.96] |
Although we human most of us continue to live in |
| [04:28.53] |
In humane dormanes whether pictures the same |
| [04:35.55] |
Children being born using their mothers maiden name |
| [04:37.92] |
We play the game of life but we don't all win |
| [04:40.29] |
Most of us ride the bench until were called in |
| [04:44.19] |
Struggling to get noticed in the side the one sided |
| [04:48.42] |
On nation under God so divided |
| [04:54.30] |
Out of touch with each others cultural activities |
| [04:58.92] |
If you don't know someone like me than how you feelin' me |
| [05:04.56] |
MJG the air we breathe makes us all related |
| [05:08.73] |
So suck it up and realize it takes us all to make it |
