Lyrics
Verse 1
chillin' at the park, then i watched in amazement/
as a man got stabbed and he fell to the pavement/
why when i think is this shit always on my mind?/
i hoped that i'd forget about it all in due time/
but i wake up from dreams where i'm getting jumped by 5 guys/
and i still remember everyone of my parents white lies/
or when my supposed friend went and beat me with a lock/
couldn't see, but i walked dripping blood down my block/
then i passed out in my neighbors front yard/
i guess that's what you get when you try to act hard/
i try to black them out, but they keep comin' through/
don't have any good thoughts that i could run to/
i wonder why.....why can't i cope/
everytime i think, it's like my neck's connected to a rope/
and i choke on the words that i don't have a chance to say/
i just hope i have the courage to chance one day/

Lord I'm asking for you help to rid myself of these bad memories/
it's hard to make it to the end of the day when your very own thoughts are your worst enemies/
Verse 2
these memories of mine will haunt me til the day i die/
like the first time i ever saw my mama cry./
after my dad came in all pissy and wasted/
yellin' stupid shit and he started to break shit/
i couldn't face it, hid in the in the back of my room/
thought it was ok, then i heard a crash anda boom/
i ran out yellin' you better not hit her/
turned the corner and found him just wailin' on my sister/
my mom was on her knees just beggin' him to stop/
i was standin' there, sayin', that's not my pops./
so now my mom's cryin', my sis is hurtin', i didn't think it was true/
i just bottled it inside, what else is a young kid to do?/
then i grew up so when i got thinking again/
i realeasd my pain through the ink in my pen/
then i started to rap, now i can tell you in words/
what i have seen, everything that hurts/

Verse 3
can't go a day without picturin' my best friend/
loosin' his life on the courts in the west end/
of my old neighborhood back down in houston/
ended on bad terms, now i can't tie up loose ends/
i never really got the chance to tell you good bye/
when the news about your death had spread, our whole hood cried/
and we wondered why, the lord took such a good soul./
i know the good die young, but that's not how it should go./
i can't shake the fact that you will not be back/
you saw me as your brother even though you were black/
now like cain, i feel i was the reason you were slain./
the results of all my actions, have caused so many pain./
i don't know what i was thinking when i went back to that park/
you tried to get me out of there when you saw that gun spark/
you took me by the arm, heard them the gun again/
we kept runnin, but i was unaware a bullet hit you, friend/
i knew something was wrong when you started to let go/
i watched as you fell, you watched as i said no/
and i'll never forget the last look that you gave me/
or how you sacrificed everything just to save me/
that crimson pool where you had lay/
it still haunts me to this very day/
and since the good really do die young...../
i'ma live forever under service to the gun/
hook x1
