I can't walk down the street 'cause people lookin' at me |
|
Like I just robbed the neighborhood |
|
Circle K Just mindin' my business, tryin' to make a livin' |
|
Takin' it day by day |
|
Some of the things that |
|
I've seen, you just wouldn't believe |
|
But I always hold my head up with dignity |
|
Can't judge the book by the cover ' |
|
Cause they don't really even know me, don't know me |
|
They don't know about the things |
|
I be goin' through |
|
And they don't know about the pain |
|
I be feelin' |
|
They don't know about the struggles |
|
I be pullin' through |
|
And I won't let them get the best of me and my soul |
|
Excuse me |
|
Lord for fussin' |
|
Things I do to keep from cussin' |
|
How so many people they bug me |
|
Goin' around tryin' to judge me |
|
Like, "Why is he wearin' that dress?" "Why is he talkin' that mess?" "Why is he so into his Africanness?" ' |
|
Cause I don't wanna settle for less, |
|
I know I deserve the best |
|
They don't know about the things |
|
I be goin' through |
|
And they don't know about the pain |
|
I be feelin' |
|
They don't know about the struggles |
|
I be pullin' through |
|
And I won't let them get the best of me and my soul |
|
Got a feelin' |
|
Said I'm givin' |
|
Everything that |
|
I've been meanin' |
|
Fixin' me |
|
Can I go now? ' |
|
Cause what |
|
I found Is enough to keep me right |
|
Fixin' me |
|
