LYRICS [INTRO] Freestyle Friday! A world in love, one nation under a groove (yooo) I said that like twenty times. You know? But y'all don't know that (yo) (Yeah. Uh.)
[VERSE] See I'ma live for a thousand years See I'ma show love and encourage a thousand peers But I failed a million times and lost a million more Got some close friends, they laying in the morgue (damn) When my spirit is strained, I need something for my soul No offense, 'cause that rap shit is kind of old I don't want to take for granted Not another moment or a second See I've been blessed with the present Thank God for the gift With every breath that I take, I'ma let my light shine I've seen stab wombs and bullet holes That dark side of that crime life Trying to show my people that there's more Than liquor, weed, and hoes What I speak about, wrecks and oppose Chasing centerfolds and flipping O's My daddy use to keep the pistol and the pump So you know he raised me not to be no fucking chump See I'ma about to break this industry And get my people out the street Ain't no stopping destiny Ain't no stopping me Drugs took my uncle Buzzy away I never got to see his face My other uncle; he was stabbed in the leg My aunt was stabbed in the back My pop was shot two times in the face And these two tatted tears on my cheek? They represent the pain (facts) Even when you don't understand, stand tall Stay true. See I been through my shit too (for real) Yeah I know what it feels like (sure do) I got a date with Love I won't live with Hate I will keep my will to live Can't take myself out Like David in the Bible; I had to encourage myself (uh) Life struggles but we wrestle through Thank God through and through Put that pistol down and use your intelligence to get through Know the ink pen is stronger Know the state pen' don't need you, but your family does Nuggets of knowledge; take it and run I use to rap in the basement I use to spit that hard shit (cement) Speaking from the heart I just want to see my friends leave a dark lifestyle A few of them are in it right now Can't knock the hustle until you understand the struggle I'm trying to focus on the good while shedding light on the bad Oh, you're uncomfortable? My bad. Too bad I'm not Sinbad Maybe I should clean my act up with a Glad bag? Nope. Shit too dirty You can see the soil underneath the fingernails This is for my niggas with the piff This is for my people with the strong This is for my niggas doing wrong Trying to get money (I see you!) the right way All they know is crime pays (for real) All they know is crime pays (damn. *inaudible*) I'm like woah All my niggas be the fucking troupe Hoping out the coup Letting off the mack Nigga it bees like that
(Okay. Okay.)
