[00:21.785]Two good people, two amazin’ sons [00:23.999]Just yesterday, they had both, now they raisin' one [00:27.486]I look at the clouds and just think [00:29.397]I could lose mine, or they could lose me in one blink [00:32.015]When I think one day it all ends, I start to drink [00:34.749]And fathom suicide, 'cause I was almost on the brink [00:37.368]And it feel like my family been jinxed [00:39.407]Ever since I found my grandmother stiff [00:41.228]Leanin' over the kitchen sink [00:43.253]I could cry enough tears to float Noah's Ark [00:45.805]Perfect health, but she died of a broken heart [00:48.407]And after that, it was a domino effect [00:50.641]First my uncle, then my daddy, I guess I'm in line next [00:54.002]I got lost on the roadside [00:57.162]Yeah, I lost my way [00:59.291]I give thanks to the Most High [01:02.455]'Cause he kept me safe [01:04.346]Hope to God that I don't die [01:08.130]So I pray [01:09.849]If I go, mama, don’t cry [01:12.424]I was on the roadside [01:17.955]I was on the roadside [01:25.891]How come you can’t learn a lesson until you go through it? [01:28.535]How come you can think about the past, but can't go to it?

[01:54.396]Probably under a tree in Mississippi by the river where they hung us at [01:57.734]If Jesus walked, why we all runnin' laps? [02:00.207]Feel like endin' racism further than where the sun is at [02:03.129]A war to keep people from people, how dumb is that?
