As Small As A Giant |
See, I was made in my father’s image and they belittle my deeds |
Their lustful convictions pledge allegiance to the almighty power and greed |
See, seeds born withered, parents still children, adolescent in their ways |
Some preachers false prophets, educated pigeon droppers using our sins to get |
paid |
Slaves, give them freedom, but give them dope |
Take away their leaders cause that gives them hope |
Sell them dreams of changing things like they were never kings and queens befo' |
As small as a giant |
As small as a giant, I’m still riding |
Hand on my sword, Good Lord I need time |
Watch for the sun-eaters blocking our shine |
Enlighten my kind, reason for rhyme |
I’ma find Zion, free my soul |
Repent for all the things I done till my eyes close |
When the boat man come I’m paying my toll |
Outside the gates of Heaven, pray to God I’m chose |
As small as a giant |
The beginning’s kinda dark, not too soft, fairly hard |
Drenched with love from my mother, connected to her struggle |
till she cut me loose, now what shall I do? |
It was all so easy, look at how they treat me ever since she pushed me through |
Now put me back in, stop these contractions |
Water breaking, aw damn, I know it’s bout to happen |
Failed events, no picket fence, a dream deterred |
Bending liquor, chilling with my niggas, swishers and herb |
Eviction notices, hopelessness thrown on my shoulders |
God won’t give you more than you can handle, carry these boulders |
Give it all I got until I get older |
Couple of medals on my sleeve cause life made me a soldier |
Reminisce on how it was way back when |
when some thangs were better off way back then |
As small as a giant, a promise so divided |
Probably ain’t surprised in so long since we sung songs over large campfires |
Cosbi was cool, but television is a lie |
Some reason I relate to Survivor |
Fresh Prince with no Uncle Phil |
The Carlton that I knew never stayed where we lived, couldn’t play with those |
kids |
While they was reading books, we was playing cops and crooks |
While they was writing essays, I was writing hooks momma |
I’ll be that nigga on TV |
cause people like Bow Wow and Soulja Boy make it look easy |
No pun intended, hoping they get offended |
I’m throwing up if these niggas spitting |
Didn’t write it, but recite it like puppets on strings |
Belittled as a peasant, but my bloodline is of kings |
Knight in shining armor for this rap shit, I slash quick |
towards a man’s beard, leaving gashes on these industry bastards |
They can’t see what is real, don’t know how I feel |
They weren’t raised where I live, in Mississippi |
Rise and shine, no time for sleep, thinking bout eating |
Leaving this place, long gone |
I get no service on this earth, I need to phone home |
Did too much dirt to talk to God, nowadays I get the dial tone |
Try again tomorrow, my heart filled with sorrow |
My family broke too, so why bother trying to borrow? |
No car, no house, drug dealing, feeling like it might be |
my only option to get meals, what else could I do? |
Put yourself in my shoes |
If you had no whip, you’d take some shortcuts too |
There ain’t no time to be wasted, the world is going under |
Nowadays can’t tell fall from spring and winter from summer |
I wonder if this was meant to be |
Maybe all the bullshit was meant for me, it takes a lot of energy |
Break these chains, erase these thangs society put up on our brain |
How could I explain it? |
We ain’t free yet |
Obama cool, but he ain’t sending me no free checks |
They killing all my niggas, Lord forbid I’ll be next |
Not now, got too many sorrows to say and kisses to give |
They don’t feel how I feel, they weren’t raised where I live, in Mississippi |
