[00:33.57] |
No more letters to the President, this one is to Jehovah |
[00:35.50] |
What was born into the world as a Christian, |
[00:38.14] |
now becomes a soldier |
[00:39.14] |
I'm pimping a pen from living in sin, so niggaz like my song |
[00:41.39] |
Chef Ro-V up in the kitchen, so these cluckers like my stones |
[00:44.39] |
Mo City Texas that's my home, but I'm known to be a loner |
[00:46.89] |
Never no witness to this crime, |
[00:48.33] |
when I'm creeping the fuck up on you |
[00:49.89] |
1 by 1 and a cigarette, |
[00:51.26] |
maybe Newport shorts and a box of possibly Kool |
[00:53.14] |
Just a nigga do anything to get paid, |
[00:54.70] |
they say I'm a god damn fool |
[00:56.20] |
I conversate with mama, |
[00:57.20] |
but she can't answer me back |
[00:58.58] |
I'm in a world one deep missing that lady, |
[01:00.26] |
cause that cancer did that |
[01:01.33] |
It got a nigga looking for a wife, |
[01:03.02] |
but most of these hoes be living shife |
[01:04.45] |
Wait till a nigga get paid then get leid, |
[01:05.89] |
and try to take a nigga life |
[01:07.01] |
I just can't take no more my heart is broke, |
[01:08.70] |
and it got too many cracks |
[01:09.83] |
Any woman I love don't need a pistol, |
[01:11.33] |
cause she be killing me with that |
[01:12.77] |
So look into my eyes, and please tell me what you see |
[01:15.33] |
Will they open the pearly gates for me, I wanna be free |
[01:17.83] |
I wonder if the sun shines, on the other side |
[01:20.14] |
Cause I bet my mama, |
[01:21.21] |
ain't seen a rainy day since she died |
[01:23.02] |
And maybe being gone, ain't all that bad |
[01:25.39] |
It's gotta be better than wasting time, |
[01:26.95] |
with a pen and a pad |
[01:28.45] |
I wonder if the sun shines, on the other side |
[01:31.27] |
Cause I bet my mama, |
[01:32.39] |
ain't seen a rainy day since she died |
[01:33.95] |
And maybe being gone, ain't all that bad |
[01:36.83] |
It's gotta be better than wasting time, |
[01:38.27] |
with a pen and a pad |
[01:39.96] |
Living in poverty, ain't part of the plan |
[01:41.74] |
So I'm on the corner, hustling with work in my hand |
[01:44.80] |
I know my mama, wouldn't approve of my lifestyle |
[01:47.36] |
But see I must get it the way I live, and that's right now |
[01:50.31] |
My nigga my credit's fucked up, so I can't put nothing in my name |
[01:53.24] |
Let alone I'm having hard times, maintaining some change |
[01:55.92] |
I'm so familiar with anger, smoking B can't even stop the pain |
[01:58.80] |
I walk assured, God please stop the rain |
[02:01.61] |
While I'm fiending for heaven, seem like hell is what I'm living |
[02:04.37] |
For my destiny's to die, or forever walk the prison floor |
[02:07.00] |
How can I be a man, 24 with no home |
[02:09.95] |
I'm putting the piece to your dome, and leaving it like the ozone |
[02:12.69] |
A cold cold world, that we living in |
[02:14.96] |
Killas'll take your life, and it ain't gotta be about no divid-ends |
[02:17.71] |
Forgive me for my sins, I'm just trying to make it |
[02:20.77] |
Trying to keep my pistol from my head, cause I just can't take it |
[02:23.71] |
I wonder if the sun shines, on the other side |
[02:26.52] |
Cause I bet my mama, |
[02:27.52] |
ain't seen a rainy day since she died |
[02:29.21] |
And maybe being gone, ain't all that bad |
[02:31.77] |
It's gotta be better than wasting time, |
[02:33.21] |
with a pen and a pad |
[02:34.96] |
I wonder if the sun shines, on the other side |
[02:37.46] |
Cause I bet my mama, |
[02:38.46] |
ain't seen a rainy day since she died |
[02:40.39] |
And maybe being gone, ain't all that bad |
[02:42.77] |
It's gotta be better than wasting time, |
[02:44.39] |
with a pen and a pad |
[02:46.14] |
I wonder if the Lord, is gonna show me some compassion |
[02:48.14] |
Or will I be victim to motherfuckers, when they blasting |
[02:51.21] |
Having flashbacks of '94, with bullets to the back |
[02:53.65] |
Cause my homies left me lonely, now my partna is my strap |
[02:56.33] |
Living everyday like it's my last one, so I'm tripping |
[02:58.96] |
Keep my finger on the trigga nigga, everytime I'm flipping |
[03:01.90] |
I don't wanna be another face, on a T-shirt |
[03:04.83] |
So when motherfuckers bring the drama, me and Nina burst |
[03:07.83] |
Know I need to be in church, but I'm trapped out on the block |
[03:11.21] |
Pumping rock after rock, God please make it stop |
[03:13.58] |
I'm a victim of the struggle, trying to make my life easy |
[03:16.02] |
But it ain't what I expected, it's hectic it's sleezy |
[03:18.08] |
I'm on my knees daily, asking God to stop the pain |
[03:20.77] |
Dealing with all this damn strain, see my pistol see my brain |
[03:23.90] |
About to take my final stand, I'm a man in his own mind |
[03:27.08] |
Steady hurting, but I hope I heal in time |
[03:30.21] |
I wonder if the sun shines, on the other side |
[03:32.58] |
Cause I bet my mama, |
[03:33.65] |
ain't seen a rainy day since she died |
[03:35.46] |
And maybe being gone, ain't all that bad |
[03:38.15] |
It's gotta be better than wasting time, |
[03:39.58] |
with a pen and a pad |
[03:40.96] |
I wonder if the sun shines, on the other side |
[03:43.59] |
Cause I bet my mama, |
[03:44.58] |
ain't seen a rainy day since she died |
[03:46.40] |
And maybe being gone, ain't all that bad |
[03:49.02] |
It's gotta be better than wasting time, |
[03:50.46] |
with a pen and a pad |
