"KEEP YA HEAD TO DA SKY"

IN DIS WORLD
I GOT VISIONS OF A BETTER LIVIN'
FOR MY FAM n DA UNFORTUNATE ONES DAT RESIDE IN IT
I'M A DREAMER
SOMETIMES, IT DOESN'T REALLY SEEM REALISTIC

BUT ON, WE KEEP PRESSIN'
IF YOU GOT REAL PEOPLE IN YA CIRCLE
CONSIDER DAT A BLESSIN'!!!!
CAUSE IN DEEZ TIMES
MAN DATZ HARD TO FIND
MY POPZ GOT 25 YRS IN n HE STILL KEEP HIS NOGGIN' HIGH
I'M ON DAT B.I LAST DAYZ PARTNER
GET DA DOUGH TO SURVIVE BUT DON'T LOVE IT LIKE SHAWN CARTER
SHOUT OUT 2 ALL DA SINGLE MOTHERS OUT THERE RAISIN' KID's WIT MORE DEN 1 JOB
NO FATHER!
STAY GROUNDED n FOCUSED ON DA LAND YOU CHARTER
I KNOW IT HURT BUT YOU CAN'T LET DA ILL FEELIN' s STAY HARBORED
NO EXCUSES!!!
WE AS MEN HAVE TO MAKE BETTER DECISIONS
N STEP UP TO DA PLATE N FINISH WHAT WE CREATED FROM DA VERY BEGINNIN'
DEEZ FAIRYTALE STORIES DON'T ALWAYS HAVE A VERY NICE ENDIN'
STARTED OUT AS FRIENDS
HAD A LOT OF GOOD TIMES n BAD LIKE FLORIDA EVANS WHEN IT SEEM WE HAD NOTHIN'
BILLS BUBBLIN' PLUS WE BOTH STRUGGLIN'
NO HEAT
ON DA COUCH WATCHIN' T.V.
SNUGGLIN'
DIDN'T HAVE MUCH CHEDDER
BUT HAD EACH OTHERS BACK n LOVE TO HOLD IT ALL TOGETHER
LOOKIN' BACK
DA SMALL THINGS ARE TREASURED
NOW WE BOTH WANNA GO n SLICE THEE OTHER THROAT
CUZ DA ENEMY CREPT IN, DEVOURED A UNION IT TOOK YEARS TO BUILD
WE LEARN AS WE GO ALONG
EVERYTHING
COME FULL CIRCLE LIKE A FERRIS WHEEL
AN OG TOLD ME PAIN n ANGER ALWAYS TAKE TIME TO HEAL
BUT DA SCARS REMAIN ETCHED
FOREVER BURNIN' INSIDE CEREBAL CORTEX
PERPLEXED
BY DA SADNESS
MOVIN' ON BUT FEELIN' YOU FAILED AT DA TASK DA LORD HANDED
DA FIRE STINGS STILL FROM BEIN' BRANDED
MEMORIES LINGER, SOMEHOW YOU SOLDIER ON n MANAGE
LEARN FROM MISTAKES TO NOT TO REPEAT
SO DA 2ND TIME AROUND YOU CAN APPLY DA LESSON
EXPERIENCE IS DA BEST TEACHER UNFORTUNATLY IN ITS PROFESSION
AT ANY FREAKIN' SECOND
ANY OF US CAN BE GONE IN DA BLINK OF AN EYE
SO MAKE DA MOMENTS COUNT B4 YA DIE
HEAR DA SOUNDS OF BLACKNESS
STAY POSITIVE N KEEP YA HEAD TO DA SKY
