Ain't a damn thing to ya Except livin' your life, and one day, I'm just bein' honest to ya It take a whole lot, just to get a Gettin' caught up in the middle the to life's riddles Never, come easy, but it was easy To lead me, but it wasn't to see me Get up off the to the TV And a couple million CD's, best believe me
You see callouses on my soul? let hate and paralysis, take control I pick you up when you down I can't no mo' My name's sting in your mouth like canker Been at war my whole life, sleepless Endless fights, but can't walk to the light 'Cause my work ain't finished on earth, for it's worth the cradle to the hearse, God and family first, for real
Somewhere in the of man (Somewhere, within, somewhere) There comes a time when he must (When he understand) The strong withstand, the weak fall (The strong withstand, the weak fall) 'Cause tomorrow may not at all ('Cause tomorrow may not at all)
Life ain't long, it's more like a You can the top, I live for the hop Never take a day I'm on this planet for granted Time for change, for growth, peace understandin' See but niggaz keep forcin' my hand, disturbin' my Bringin' out the in a peaceful man It's like tryin' to build a house on sand, you get A solid foundation, one man can the nation
Yo, I put that on all creation, Haitian, African, Asian, Caucausian, Whatever your persuasion, this is the Time is of essence especially when you're countin' blessings learned from the deepest of pain, it's not a game Keep my name your mouth and I'ma keep it the same, ya dig?

Somewhere in the of man (Somewhere, within, somewhere) There comes a time when he must (When he understand) The strong withstand, the weak fall (The withstand, the weak will fall) tomorrow may not come at all ('Cause tomorrow may not at all)
Who got Who got hustle? Who got they with 'em? Who pay for they muscle? Yo, it's all gon' out in the wash, the lost Angel With dirty wings, bullets ricochet off my I lay low for no one, I love my Ain't afraid of no hard and sacrifice Was born twice the life of my seed Makin' sure he see a side of life, I was able to see
Hittin' home like zero', move over now Peace to the real heroes, still I put it down for the homies that came hard in the paint I'm livin' it's never to late, you straight Once in a while I go back to the strip And see the same niggaz still doin' the same And all I can do is increase the Put it out, let it soak in, and hope they grow,
Somewhere in the of man (Somewhere, within, somewhere) There comes a time he must understand (When he understand) The strong withstand, the weak fall (The strong withstand, the will fall) 'Cause tomorrow may not at all ('Cause may not come at all)
in the heart of man (Somewhere, within, somewhere) There comes a time he must understand (When he understand) The strong withstand, the weak fall (The strong withstand, the weak fall) tomorrow may not come at all ('Cause may not come at all)
