Lyrics
(Verse 1)
i know a good man, that grew from a slum life
with a dream to leave the violence and the gun fights
he knew that he could shine brighter than a flood light
all he wanted was a family and one wife
wanted to do all the things that his dad didn't
he just tried to make good of a bad setting
but its hard to make good when the bad set in
his dreams turned to nightmares cause his dad hit him
it was still his dad so he didnt throw back
did a lot of drugs but he didnt know that
well he didnt know untill he found a dope bag
now atleast he knew the reason he was so mad
dad had a good job, but some bad debt
then he lost it all, like he made a bad bet
he just thought he had nothing when his dad left
then his mom left too and he had less
(hook)
why do men treat woman like an object
kids with work that dont even got a job yet
i dont get why men always gotta beat chicks
why dont kids choose school instead of street sh**
why dont we encourage kids to do the right thing
instead of troubles they can see the good that life bring
people think their weak, so they dont fight back
we at a dead end, look for the right path
(verse 2)
no parents, just him and his two sisters
you hate your mom when shes gone but you do miss her
now he hustles for some money and a few blisters
all his dreams and visions turned into a new picture
he was forced to do things he would have never done
now he standing on the corner and hes selling guns
he had to do it, though it hurt him selling everyone
thats a hard life, that sh** is never fun
He had a good set of morals that he had to break
in the street, you do anything that it takes
he was a good kid, but he had to shake that
he was force to stop that like a brake pad
he was still good, but he hid it deep down
he just had to look bad to the street crowd
in a cold world, you need to keep the heat round
if they saw that he was good he'd catch a beat down
(hook)
(verse 3)
he was getting sick and tired of his lifestyle
it was time to be a man and face lifes trials
and he may have loved his city, but love hurts
so he broke away and moved into the subburbs
Now hes got a job, but he left the work behind
it was an uphill battle, but was worth the climb
he was lost and it took a lot of search to find
if you dont look for good, life gets worse in time
our lowly stated is mostly rooted from complacency
and once you leave it, you wil see it aint the place to be
check the mirror, take a deep look in your face to see
that life is better then the way the people make it seem
this aint my story, its a friends but i feel for him
good guy, bad world, it just reeled him in
he got away, and he taught me what not to do
you earned the love and respect that i got for you
