In Due Time

Just keep your faith in me, don't act impatiently
You'll get where you need to be in due time
Even when things go slow, hold on and don't let go
I'll give you what I owe in due time

When that, when that be thinkin' of cruisin' the braves cap is to the side
Thinkin' the police gon' pull me over with this herb off in my ride
So I hide the brick of weed under the arm rest, under the leather
Thinkin' of startin' ways to make my life a little better

Then the dope peddler never pay no, pay no taxes
Takin' a chunk up out my check
And makin' my rhymes just look like practice
Buyin' clothing, range roving with my folks
Don't speak about the Dirty South, my crew ain't 'bout no jokes

I know some people don't like the way we flow because they envy
They talkin' 'bout they, 'bout they my, my
And that they could have been me
You lookin' to be that butterfly without the caterpillar
Take your time and do it right 'cause you gon make it

I swear my, swear my or collapse one, falling a victim to your greed boy
Your looking to be big willie but you're still a seed boy
The information in my skull be pokin' some of y'all on the shoulder
But on the other side of the fence
They gotcha, gotcha breakin' boulders for quick money

Struggling is just a part of my day
Many obstacles been placed in my way
I know the only reason that I make it through
Is because I never stop believing in you

Some people wonder why we're here in the first place
They can't believe because they ain't never seen your face
But even when you pray, the next day you gotta try
Can it wait for nobody to come down out the sky

You've got to realize that the world's a test
You can only do your best and let him do the rest
You've got your life, you've got your health
So quit procrastinating and push it yourself

You've got to realize that the world's a test
You can only do your best and let him do the rest
You've got your life, you've got your health
So quit procrastinating

Just keep your faith in me, don't act impatiently
You'll get where you need to be in due time
Even when things go slow, hold on and don't let go
I'll give you what I owe in due time

Who said good folks is not supposed to die
The same, the same that said, that said is not supposed to cry
United States giving out milk and cheese to pacify
I'm sure they got a cure for AIDS, but yet it's classified

You wonder why I spit the truth and not to make no dough
To make a difference fo' this, up and blow
In piece, I could think of many reasons
Only when, only when is going bad you want to holla Jesus

I pledge allegiance, they got my knuckles bleeding
From crawling, got these, got those thinkin' they ballin'
When they isn't, don't take my word
There's, there's off in prison

That will tell yo, that's locked up for a long time and won't sell you
No flex, so congregation will turn you text
To the book of Outkast, chapter two, verse one
The first one, that feel me jump up and make a joyful noise
You'se outkastic, meaning you now have a choice like that

Just keep your faith in me, don't act impatiently
You'll get where you need to be in due time
Even when things go slow, hold on and don't let go
I'll give you what I owe in due time

Just keep your faith in me, don't act impatiently
You'll get where you need to be in due time
Even when things go slow, hold on and don't let go
I'll give you what I owe in due time
