lyrics

Uh
Lord knows I been playin round with these different dangers (I see the diffferent dangers)
Lord knows I been hangin round with these different strangers (I see the different dangers)
If I’m definin the meaning of self success, I never could take a sec,
To realize I’m blessed, uh
People coming at you sideways, I see the angles (I see the angles)
I get entangled in coming back in a lovely Range tho
Can’t get content with the power, glory and fame (Nah x4)
I wanted to make a name, I wanted to make a change uh
Every time that you pray, look to the sky
Cuz I want the Lord to see all the tears that his people cry (There's people sufferin)
Every day the news is showin the ways that these children die
And the money keep on rollin to people with suit and tie, uh
That shit ain’t right, but I guess that’s just life (Damn)
Thinkin all the demons left, but we still fightin for rights
Thinkin all your dogs are with you till you realize they bite (It be like that)
Thinkin all your dogs are with you till they all outta sight, uh
Keep ya eyes on the prize, yeah that’s what poppa said
No advice, on my life, pay the price, my ass be dead
Or in a place, where the light don’t shine
And the grass don’t grow, and the mind don’t know, uh

[Bridge]
Uh
Spirit leave you the lessons you learn they never teach you
Just do the read thru these words were never meant to mislead you
All of my people we equal, don’t bite the hand that feed you
I ask myself every day, who said I didn’t need you?
Who said I didn’t need you?
No I could never leave you
I know you need me too.
Yeah, I know you need me too.

But listen…

They always say don’t let the people know how you feel
But if I never reveal how the fuck do I heal?
Say the skin never peel and your bones made of steel
All emotions are sealed, gotta kill, gotta steal
Never got that mentality, but what do I know?
All that pressure on your shoulders finna make the mind blow
Where the light don’t shine, and the grass don’t grow
I wish I had the answers, I know they’re there to find tho.
