A mother lost her child, I tried to ease her pain It's only God's will, she said she felt the same. It's funny how the sun will up and battle rain As if the clouds couldn't stand to see me outside a-gain Wrote a rhyme that was kind, with some vision to it Bottom line, it might expand yo mind if you listen to it Too much shine can dull the soul
If you feel how I feel then I rap some mo' How can the Devil take my brother if he's close to me When he was everything I wasn't but I hoped to be I get a little honest, and I ask my self If the time come will you save me if I ask for help Send my mind on a journey to the outermost To document what it had seen, and Cc: me the notes And ask Kurt Cobain why, cause I need to know He stopped when he had such a long way to go I saw love in the eyes of a perfect stranga She overlooked my caring heart in search of a gangsta Will we ever be together? Only time will tell She called my phone and talk to me as her eye was swelled I put my problems in box beside my tightest rhymes On a lock and key, buried deep of in my mind And when it gets too full, and I can't close the lid I spaz on my family and my closest friends Trade my materials for a peace of mind I'm so close to Heaven, Hell I need some time Who cares about life, and the highs and lows Maybe I should write another song about pimps and hoes Cars and clothes, Idol Gods, Golden Cabs, Louie Scarfs I do this for the love, and it's free of charge I don't need jail to be behind bars This is purely art, in my Grandma's household this was surely taught Don't be naive, yea these time's is hard. In the mist of all the glamor, hope you find god I never wished to be the burden bearer But souls need saving and it's now or never Shock value is all they wanna see It's us against them, and it's just you and me Tryna take heat what I say in my songs Forgive me if I ever ever stilled you wrong Most people stop for signs, but I've driven through it If it don't touch my soul, then I can't listen to it The radio don't play the shit I used to love Or maybe I'm just growing up I never seen a star on a red rug If I wanna see a stars I just look above To the Heavens
I know you been down so long, So I'll be stronger for you I know you been down so long, Cause I've been down too Yes I understand, What you're goin through Yes I understand, Cause I'm goin through it too I pray you find your way, and all things old become new I pray you find your way for my sake, cause I'm lost too Yes I Understand, What you're goin through Yes I understand, Cause I'm goin through it too I lost my friend this mornin', woke up screamin her name She meant so much to me, I'm scared I won't be the same Hope you understand, what I'm goin through Hope you understand, when I call out for you To vent.
