Changes

They say change is good, I say dollars is better
So I acknowledge the empowerment piling this cheddar
See as a father, my persona’s to try to do better
All my youngings is never bailing no matter whatever
(Changes we go through) shape the person you are
So made you a square made me to a star
And while I fight the higher height, you continue to spar
Steady swinging your arms, how you gon' box with the God?
(Changes we go though) never breaking me though
If anything, give me the means to continue to go
And for the record, I’ve accessed that I am destined to grow
Never question the glow, Bruce Leeroy of the flow
(Changes we go though) rarely leave us the same
Got to figure you’ll never win if you ain’t in the game
But no jokes though, ‘cause even in my shorty’s stage
Told him break a dollar for my quarter, I was making change
Changes we’re going through, phases we’re going through
And still we just keep on climbing
Whatever you’re going through, your triumph is overdue
In darkness, you keep on shining
Changes we’re going though, places we’re going to
It’s yours if you keep on grinding
So we’re striving, and we’re riding
Until the change, we gon' put that time in
one-track mind, I see you’ll never change
She still riding ‘round with these niggas trying to get her thing
If figures should have cents the way she giving brains
‘Til they give her what she can’t get rid of, she ain’t make the change
Niggas change up their kicks
A couple times a day but won’t do a thing for their kids
You taking trips to South Beach and gaming these chicks
To go raw and never sure who gave him the hiv
Got to the change
In this economy, but still seeing ride in the Range
If you could read between the lines, then you’re right on my page
As I write on the page, steadily scribing for change
(Changes we go though) never breaking my stride
Long as my will is real, then I’m gon' continue to ride
Shattered relationships, but damn if it damage my pride
Pain in the passenger side, cherish it, tell it goodbye
