Chorus
|
|
You just keep your faith in me
|
|
Don't act impatiently
|
|
You'll never get where you need to be
|
|
In due time
|
|
Even when things go slow
|
|
Hold on and don't let go
|
|
I'll give you what I ow
|
|
In due time
|
|
Verse One:
|
|
When that * be thinkin of cruisin'
|
|
The Braves cap is to the side
|
|
Thinkin' the police gon' pull me over
|
|
With this * off in my ride
|
|
So I hide the brick of weed
|
|
Under the arm rest, under the leather
|
|
Thinkin' of startin ways
|
|
To make my life a little better
|
|
Then the dope peddler
|
|
Never pay no * taxes
|
|
Takin a chunk up out my check
|
|
And makin my rhymes just look like practice
|
|
Buyin' clothing, Range Roving
|
|
With my folks
|
|
Don't speak about the Dirty South
|
|
My crew ain't bout no jokes
|
|
I know some people don't like the way we flow
|
|
Because they envy
|
|
They talkin bout they * my *
|
|
And that they could have been me
|
|
You lookin to be that butterfly
|
|
Without the caterpillar
|
|
Take your time and do it right
|
|
Cause you gon make it
|
|
I swear my
|
|
Or collapse 1
|
|
Falling a victim to your greed boy
|
|
Your looking to be Big Willie
|
|
But ou're still a seed boy
|
|
The information in my skull
|
|
Be pokin' some of ya'll on the shoulder
|
|
But on the other side of the fence
|
|
They got * breakin' boulders
|
|
For quick money
|
|
Bridge
|
|
Struggle is just a part of my day
|
|
Many obstachave been placed in my way
|
|
I know the only reason that I make it through
|
|
Is because I never stop believing in you
|
|
Some people wonder why we're here in the 1st place
|
|
They can't believe because they ain't never seen your face
|
|
But even when you pray, the next day you gotta try
|
|
Can it wait 4 nobody 2 come down out the sky
|
|
You've got to realize that the world's a test
|
|
You can only do your best and let him do the rest
|
|
You've got your life, you've got your health
|
|
So quit procrastinating and push it yourself
|
|
You've got to realize that the world's a test
|
|
You can only do your best and let him do the rest
|
|
You've got your life, you've got your health
|
|
So quit procrastinating
|
|
Verse 2:
|
|
Who said good folks is not supposed to die
|
|
The same * that said * is not supposed to cry
|
|
United States giving out milk and cheese to pacify
|
|
I'm sure they got a cure 4 A.I.D.S., but yet it's classified
|
|
You wonder why I spit the truth and not 2 make no dough
|
|
To make a differencefo' this * up and blow
|
|
In piece, I could think of many reasons
|
|
Only when * is going bad you want to holla Jesus
|
|
I pledge allegiance, they got my knuckles bleeding
|
|
From crawling , got these * thinkin they ballin'
|
|
When they isn't, don't take my word,
|
|
there's * off in prison
|
|
That will tell yo, that's locked up 4 a long time and won't sell you
|
|
No flex, so congregation will turn you text,
|
|
To the book of OutKast, chapter 2, verse 1
|
|
The 1st 1, that make me jump up and make a joyful noise
|
|
You'se OutKasted, meaning you now have a choice like that
