| In this line of work I don
|
| Everyday I work on
|
| Showing my all to prove
|
| (*I'm a good man*)
|
| Food, clothing and shelter
|
| Making sure me and mines are not helpless
|
| (*I'm a good man*)
|
| Nowadays less is more
|
| Long as your family is rest assured
|
| Started from rock bottom
|
| Still electrifying at low wattage
|
| Where many were optimistic I was
|
| Sinking progress but I never digressed
|
| From the path that I chose to turn pro from a novice
|
| Along that road, ran into a fork
|
| On the left was crime, on the right was music or sports
|
| And other fields maybe a lawyer or a doctor
|
| Or be C.E.O. |
| like Gamble and Procter
|
| In my lifetime, walking that fine line
|
| Study lights that shine networking through WiFi
|
| Show a slice eyes bittersweet
|
| For those lost over the cost of universal guidelines
|
| A good spirit I perceive through my minds eye
|
| Waving at cats blowing they horn as they drive by
|
| Well respected inside the community
|
| Take in account how they view me just knowing…
|
| (*I'm a good man*)

|
| So what’s the definition of a good dude?
|
| Is it defined by his actions, how he move?
|
| Is it holding down his wiz or his kids?
|
| Does… cars and cash make him who he is?
|
| Or the Louis wear?
|
| Who can really tell no matter who he near
|
| Those caught up in the system
|
| Don’t plan for detention
|
| It was done out despair, bottom line
|
| Call it a Catch-22 life is strange
|
| And often a good man wins
|
| Even committing sin |
