I look at the emptiness in the palms of my hands
it?s my motivation...to change...it?s hard, but I know that I can
fight myself constantly...the fear of losing what I have
LIFE...so many times wish I could?ve passed
but I?m here stepping out the ashes of my past
slowly blowing away...and I?m amazed
to put it simply...today I still breathe
FACT...I?m a man of the street...it?s all I know
young homie from eighteenth street...destiny says I?m a G
soul searching doesn?t make me think different...E
Gotta let go...so often I remind myself so
TRUTH...I am my worst foe
if I desire I put satan beneath my toes
so hard to resist the blocc...loved when my gat?d smoke
can?t catch any cases...my ass is grown
prison is politics...I don?t kiss ass...no joke
So...where am I going?
Honestly I don?t know...
Up is all I can figure
tired of being down
held down by my surroundings
just wanna be myself..
Accepted for who I am
not hated cause I?m as straight as I claim
leave little for thought
goodbye ms. Mary jane
you?re missed but it?s time I...deal with my pain...
