if I care whether I live or die are the choices that stuck with on the daily.
these streets are what made me, fuck god that master never created me.
why must these devilish choices bring me down?
my family sits disappointment, heads down from the trouble of society
back in the day I've seen so much, heard a lot of things but never avoided to stay away.
day by day I'm living in this cold world.
where do I have to turn? I guess that's just a lesson I'll have to learn.
I'm just young black man who doesn't give a fuck at the world throws at me.
I'm determined to stay above the rest but trouble always has a way of finding me.
stuck in between right and wrong, holding it down for my block, we're staying strong. I don't know how long this will last. at least I know where I belong.
my end is near, I can feel the heat from hell.
I wanted better for myself but mistakes were made.
should of always remembered blood is thicker than water.
now I'm faced with the consequences will I end up dead or locked away?
should of listened from the start now all I've caused is suffering and broken hearts.
it's too late for me to turn around so I'll move forward till my final breath.
feel all over me just staring me down is death in the flesh while he's showing me the world doesn't weep while I rest.
so here you go I'll give you one fucking chance.
to take me off my high horse with your bare hands.
what you don't know is just your fucking with.
so either shut your mouth or bite the cement.
who was I to act so tough?
cause I didn't give a fuck
and it only got me this far.
fucked around with the wrong person,
he pulled the trigger now I'm buried six feet under.
