| I was an outcast, outsider, trouble maker
|
| A lost soul, outta control, in danger
|
| Didn’t have a care in the world, my feelings were numb
|
| Never showing emotion, it’s easy for some
|
| I don’t know how it happened, how I got to this point
|
| But I needed a way out, I was stuck in a ploy
|
| I needed another path or I’d self destruct
|
| I was down on my luck, my head was so fucked
|
| A menace runnin' the streets is what I was
|
| Holdin' my heat and rollin' with the serious thugs
|
| You couldn’t tell me a thing, I was like my brother
|
| Words went in one ear and out the other
|
| Slangin' and bangin' with a chip on my shoulder
|
| An insane in the brain certified street soldier
|
| So close to the grave, you at an early age
|
| Can’t tell you the price I’ve paid
|
| Oh, the sky overhead, it’s like a canvas of grey
|
| I don’t know how much time I’ll be given to stay
|
| From the first spring to light till the end of the day
|
| I’m just livin' my life till they come carry me away
|
| I’ve been there in LA nights in the block where I came up
|
| My pops used to hate when we hanged with them bangers
|
| Guess he knew one day that we’ll become us
|
| That’s just how it is when you live where we come from
|
| «Fight, don’t run!» |
| is the motto we live by
|
| Get 'em on the ground and stomp a mind about ten times
|
| Sure we was just kids back then
|
| I had no remorse for what we did back then
|
| Six of us, one call, we’d all pack in
|
| Hit the strip and go and get the shit crackin'
|
| Gun wars and drug deals, I seen 'em happen
|
| When I started losin' homeboys, I wasn’t laughin'
|
| I looked all around and seen none of 'em there
|
| That’s when I figured out that nobody cared
|
| If we lived or die, we’ll just get high and ride
|
| And I wasn’t gonna let this happen one more time
|
| Oh, the sky overhead, it’s like a canvas of grey
|
| I don’t know how much time I’ll be given to stay
|
| From the first spring to light till the end of the day
|
| I’m just livin' my life till they come carry me away
|
| My mother would stand for me every step of the way
|
| She didn’t judge me, she told me I’d win some day
|
| When I was at my lowest, when I had no focus
|
| She pulled me out the gutter, said I wasn’t hopeless
|
| Every night she prayed for me I was out on the street
|
| Chillin' on the corner with the hand on my heat
|
| Eyes open wide for the pigs and foes
|
| It’s an every day hazard when you hustle for dough
|
| So many nights I didn’t come home, she thought the worst
|
| Maybe somebody shot me down without any remorse
|
| Maybe I hurt somebody and I was stuck in a cell
|
| Well, I regret all those times that I put her through hell
|
| When I reflect back on those days, my heart aches
|
| And everybody I lost or let down, I wish I could take it
|
| All back and make it better but I can’t, so I try
|
| To make amends and be there through thick and thin
|
| Oh, the sky overhead, it’s like a canvas of grey
|
| I don’t know how much time I’ll be given to stay
|
| From the first spring to light till the end of the day
|
| I’m just livin' my life till they come carry me away
|
| Come carry me away
|
| Come carry me away
|
| Come carry me away
|
| Come carry me away |
