Where I’m from there aren’t too many options
You can get got while you’re shopping
That’s why the police proceed with caution
The ghetto bird in the sky watching
It don’t take much to get it popping
Don’t get caught wearing the wrong colors
I wish we would stop killing each other
We all came from the struggle
But don’t nobody get that
Too late they already blew his wig back………
It’s never too late to get it right
How bad do you want it though?
We’ll only go as far as we wanna go
Used to dream of being on the radio
Used to dream of balling on NBC
I let the world kill my dreams
Ima survivor it’s embedded in my genes
So it’s only right that I keep fighting
It’s only right that I keep writing
Shining on em till they’re blind
People think that these are just lines
This is my pain that I write
I’m still trying to get it right too
I’m no better or lesser than you
I’m out here trying to come up
If they shoot me then they better run up……
I been thinking about leaving
I need to sit down and chop it up with Ian
He told me to use my golden smile
I just have so much on my mind
24 hours just ain’t enough time
Before I know it the moon is up
You think they really care about us?
Tell me what you know about it?!
