Lyrics
[v1]
Look’n bacc on the day I was born, I was a bless’n
Handed to my motha, breakin god’s new test in!
Neva knew I would become someone to lead a path
Do the math, tryin to figure out the better half
Of this game of life, of this crooked world we live in
Neva give in, neva doubt yaself follow ur vision
Opposition leads to suicide inside the prison!!
Then ya inside the walls like no time was given!
Then u get stucc, I neva had no lucc
N I still don’t give a fucc about makin a quicc bucc!
N its no lie, a matter of how hard u try
To get where u wanna be, without askin why
U already kno the answer, I don’t gottah give it to u
So fall bacc on urself, cuz I don’t care whut u do!
Now I gottah move on, live my life my own way
I’ll take ur pride in an instant, cuz I’m claimin the day!
[hook]
United we remain, I neva felt the same
Bout the same day, look’n bacc when I was made
Into the boy I was, now the man I am today
I’m look’n up to dark clouds crowdin my way
This is my time, my time – im comin out
Im all real talk there aint nothing to doubt!
I don’t wanna be the type left sittin on the shelf
Im ona new level, still united whit myself!
[v2]
Now im gonna talk about my famm and whut I got left
I left a mess behind me how im still feel’n the stress!
Why every time I wake up, it’s the same old shit
When I try sumthin different I jus fall bacc quicc!
Then I got my moms, who always been there me
But pressed charges – assault in the 2nd degree!
Yeh I rose a hand, I neva meant it like that
U came at me sideways, so pardon my bacc!
Like u sayin dad cared, even tho he wasn’t there
But he relly was, and now he lonely n scared!
Yeh he pressed charges too, he didn’t kno whut to do!
He wish’d I wasn’t born, I almost made his dream tru!
How u gonna say that to ur only son face to face?
Ur a disgrace, I forgave u on my own pace!
It takes a real man to do that, so u better take the note!
Realize that u were wrong n neva give up hope!
[hook]
[v3]
I was on the streets, I had no where to go!
So I went into a shelter, started cry’n cuz I didn’t kno!
Someone helped me out, my advocate choose my path!
So I hit the books, made an effort dividin the math!
N I aint talking bout the class, but every day’s a new lesson!
Who’s stress’n a group home tha’s relly a bless’n!
I spent 2 years n came out a new man!
With the same ways I had before just a new plan!
Yeh my mind’s rite, im more mature now!
I keep my word in every way, jus neva ask me how!
Or why I do whut I do, I am who I am!
I can only be me, tha’s y the rest are them!
U could ask about me all u want, u wanna kno see me
Witness first hand all this shit was neva easy
I got my paperwork, I could show it if u like
I don’t gottah prove a thing, but I might do it outtah spite!
[hook till fade]
