This is to all my little brothers, little homies, yo check it out
1] Man you 21 now and I can believe it living on your own, just hard to conceive That you on the right track, out pursuing that But a few years I couldn't see you in college You was all out cripping, a gun in the house My thought was to take it, give you one to the mouth But never that, we been way to much I always tried to give you but not say too much Tried to lead by example, I have some nerve Telling you out the street while I was out slanging herb But I always preferred you do it smarter me You didn't have to prove nothing being harder me You helped mom at the away from misdemeanors I was of you then Please I still am Don't let the get you down, throw you off your program Life is hard, harder on a young black man If it gets rough blow a and bump some more slow jams Know man with a badge is probably a punk But don't risk your freedom, just to throw one punch Let a coward be a coward, he has to with his past I these pigs deserve it but give em a pass I know you wanna keep it gangster, just do it class all remember this, no matter how big you get I'm still your big brother and I can whoop your ass
They say a man knows nothing, so I know a lot less But I where you at homie, put to the test The answer lies deep within, so open your And find God within yourself and he'll you the rest I know the world is against you and your going through But long as you still breathing God, and know you been The sin is giving up, there's no need to confess Find a God within yourself and he'll you the rest
2] Now that doo-rag off when you get in my ride Man that shit aint fresh, you're supposed to wear it Not bandannas or under a cap I be getting old but I don't understand that You your hoodie on or off, please make up your mind Trapped in a rap video, your mind Getting lost through someone helps you find yourself I guess how it works I seen this kid the day with murder written on his shirt And never been to a Now am I out of touch, if I say unusual dude will sing a love ballad to his homeboys, before a young lady Now aint that If you didn't love that bitch then why you her keep your baby Ooh not right But the other night You were a killer pull a trigger you have a fare fight But if you value one, then why not value every Its obvious you know the difference between wrong and Its not being self, its hard to follow the light When surrounded by darkness, almost drowning in evil searching for some help but still aint found no real people Here's a shout, we out here, we struggling too Some of us do it legal; will thug our way through We got to fight to the world that our youth are intelligent So keep it gangster in your CD changer, not residence
They say a wise man knows nothing, so I a lot less But I been you at homie, put to the test The answer deep within, so open your chest And find God within yourself and he'll you the rest I know the world is against you and your through stress But as you still breathing God, and know you been blessed The sin is giving up, there's no need to confess Find a God within yourself and he'll you the rest
