As a Youngin I Was Told Only God I Should Receive and Revere /
And Don't Always Believe What You Hear /
We Fighting Against Injustice, they Killed Another Leader in Fear /
Does Heaven Have a Ghetto That is Sweeter Than Here? /

Why? I Would Leave in a Year /
Yet I'm 'Round Dudes Who Won't Leave the Crib Unless the Heater is Near /
Fo Real, So Its Tucked Under Their Beater and Gear /
It's Ruff So There's Weed in the Air /

Sobering Up Thru Litres of Beer, Yeah, We Ain't in Our Right Minds /
All the Fathers Done Left em All Like Mines /
Poverty Forced Us Into Night Crimes /
I Eventually Stopped So I Could Write Rhymes /

Yeah, I'm Blessed to See the Light Shine /
Cuz People Lost They Life Line /
Women Fallin for False Love from Guys Over White Wine /
Got em Spreading Their Legs Just Like Mike's Sign /

Damn, It's a Cold World /
If Only You Could See What Happened to My Old Girl /
Damn, It's a Cold World /
If Only You Could See.... /

Ayo Forget It, See My Mind Drifts but I Can't Dwell on the Past /
But Why She Sellin Her Ass? /
I Guess Shortie Sold Her Soul Quick Once She Fell for the Cash /
She Had Status Where You Couldn't Wait to Tell If You Smashed /

Uh, Dudes Waitin to Holla
But She Won't Entertain You Unless You Got the Cake of a Baller /
How Things Change Like You Breakin a Dollar /
Now She Giving Out Brains Like Debating a Scholar /

LORD, What Do I Do? /
Got Me Looking to the Sky Blue /
Got Me Thinking, "Girl Why You?" /
We Use to Kick it - Ryu /
God is Always There wit You, This is my View /

Moving Work No Alerting the Feds /
Niggaz is doin Dirt for the Bread /
Shoot, They Hit Dalton When Squirtin the Lead /
Now His Name and His Face on a Shirt cuz he Dead /

I Try to Escape but Revert to the Dread /
Police Beat me Down - Seen em Smirk as I Bled /
Ring on my Finger, I Thought She'd Leave me but She Flirting Instead /
So Many Issues, Its Hurtin my Head /

My Homies Told me There's Something They Gotta Share wit Me /
"No Disrespect, GOD don't Care for Me" /
"Take a Look at my Life, GOD ain't Fair to Me?" /
"I'm Prepared to Squeeze" /
Bearing (Bare) Arms like Wearing Tees
/

"Are you Hearin Me?" /
"And Why the Church Gotta Stare to See" /
"What my Erorrs be?" /
"A Bunch of Hypocrites who don't know GOD like the Pharisees" /
"Even I can tell that they Preach Heresy" /

It Embarrassed Me /
So in my Prayer I Plea /
"LORD, be There for em all like you There for Me" /
I Write it Down, Spit it to the Air and Leave /
Then Put it on a Track like Hair and Weave . . . /
Lyrical Therapy /
