Story behind the song
We all have losses and setbacks in our lives, and sometimes that can keep you from attaining the goals you set if you let it. We decided that the obstacles we have and will encounter will not deter us from what it is we want, we would use those experiences to become stronger. I love to say "The pain we cannot bear kills us outright." and I believe that strongly. That's pretty much what the song is about. When I heard the track that DX did for it, I knew this was the track to say it on. Shout out to Tara King (www.tarajking.com), she said I sound like Anthony Hamilton on the hooks... she's sweet. LOL -Tango
Lyrics
This ain't what I had in mind for me, no oh Can you see what I'm trying to be, yeah There a path in front of me, yeah That the only thing I'm trying to see, yeah In the Midnight hour.... While y'all be sleeping, I just stare at the wall I contemplate on past mistakes, and then I try to recall What exactly did I do to put myself in this position? I open up my heart and my soul, and then I listen To my people on the other side, I know that they guide me I'm thankful for their lessons and the blessings they provide me I keep 'em all inside of me, every where I go I've missed you everday since you've been gone and that's fo sho And I'm here to let you know that you provide me with the drive Its your memory and spirit thats been keeping me alive And I strive, I'll never let up, I'll never let you down But plain and simple, yo, it fucking sucks to not have you around Stephanie, Ron, John, your losses have affected me But now I know that y'all and all my other fam protecting me So I'm hold the path and be the souljah that I am Cuz when it came to me, I know y'all always gave a damn, and then some... yeah...Cuz when it came to me, I know y'all always gave a damn, and THEN some... This ain't what I had in mind for me, no oh Can you see what I'm trying to be, yeah There a path in front of me, yeah That the only thing I'm trying to see, yeah In the Midnight hour.... Just take a look in my eyes, by no surprise you'll see A nigga from the streets of Duval, so damn hungry For money, money... mo' money money I wanna be rich, but first I gotta do something about These bills, bills... mo' bills bills Stacked up higher than wrecked automobiles In the junkyard, sometimes I feel I work too damn hard For Jeff Ali Scott, I wanna murder 'em all That's two supervisors, including the boss That's what I'm thinking 'bout when y'all be pissing me off So watch me get up off my A-S-S... And go back to school and I'ma take that test I got too many goals that I ain't done yet I got too many hoes that I ain't fucked yet But besides that, I'ma get mine, point blank Ain't no holding back this time, I'm on a paper chase.... Check the material, feel out the audio, inside your body now live in stereo, a merry go round of sounds, acoustic energy, watch out you finna be Moved... as the diagphram picks up higher man and might this moment be destroyed, still through time it will expand We stand alone and without peer, simply call us gladiator skin tougher than a rhino's fused with alligator Fader ballistics are twisted, so drum kits are wicked gets you lifted when you listen enlighted your hearing Bearing down on your spirit, like an early lyric from the late Tupac Shakur our souls shake the floor We got heart galore, realism and more brass balls and a middle finger longer than yours We're all products of the heart ache and hardship it all started when we opened our eyes, but we got past it Its the ones who out last it, and do what they do cause they gotta, not cause they wanna, nigga Its the ones who out last it, and do what they do cause they gotta... not cause they wanna... This ain't what I had in mind for me, no oh Can you see what I'm trying to be, yeah There a path in front of me, yeah That the only thing I'm trying to see, yeah In the Midnight hour....
