This for all my G's and my niggas that ride with me
|
Only God feel the pain and only he can really see
|
Through the eyes of a child
|
A baby born wild
|
Gangsta shit flow through his blood and no one had to show him how
|
Kill or be killed where I come from ain't no in between
|
Why trade the world just to be a dope fiend
|
Hoes have a child just to take a nigga change
|
Twelve years later he want to know his daddy name
|
Maximum security prison how we get to see
|
The only man resemble him and this shit here ain't on T.V.
|
Your favorite actor don't play this part
|
If you never live to sit you can't say his heart
|
|
[Chorus x2]
|
You don't have to believe me (believe me)
|
Unless you want to believe me (believe me)
|
But it's real (It's so real)
|
It's all real
|
|
[Eightball]
|
Yeah
|
Little girl
|
So precious and innocent to the world
|
Get swallowed up and sucked up by this world
|
Little girl you hide your pain with all them games
|
Gettin' high and sellin' ya soul who can you blame
|
Nigga love you what do they love what you do
|
It's aiight boo I know you gotta get paid too
|
It's a long road
|
Full of ?? niggas and hoes
|
Gotta be strong
|
Cuz It's so easy for you to be gone
|
Not here no more
|
You not breathing so yo not here no more
|
You touch no more
|
You feel no more and you don't fear no more
|
Not here no more
|
I know you don't want to hear dis
|
But somebody got to tell ya some real shit
|
Not sugarcoated
|
Cuz where I come from shit ain't sweet
|
You got a choice and it ain't shit for you in them streets
|
Black women be a momma to ya little babies
|
Get on ya knees and pray to God things change daily
|
|
[Chorus x2]

[MJG]
|
We ain't tryin to preach to ya
|
Just tryin' to reach to ya
|
See all of us are blessed with somethin'
|
But most of us don't take two seconds out of our days
|
to try to imagine somebosy elses hard times
|
Because ya too busy worried about cha own
|
If ya wanna know what real is
|
Real is experiencing good times and hardaches and being
|
able to balance them boats
|
But at the same time realizing that the world will continue to
|
spin with or without you
|
Lend me your ears, give me your spirit your conscience has to pay
|
attention to what I mention
|
I'm your eye opener the hope for the one to will never see the suburbs
|
And if good life is only the word
|
The phrase the life that somebody else is living
|
Although we human most of us continue to live in
|
In humane, dormanes whether pictures the same
|
Children being born using their mothers maiden name
|
We play the game of life but we don't all win
|
Most of us ride the bench until were called in
|
Struggling to get noticed in the side the one-sided
|
On nation under God so divided
|
Out of touch with each others cultural activities
|
If you don't know someone like me than how you feelin' me
|
MJG, the air we breathe makes us all related
|
So suck it up and realize it takes us all to make it
|
|
[Chorus x4]
