| I pledge allegiance to the soldiers, the ones who had to leave they family
|
| Overseas facing death everyday, missing they family
|
| Knowing that everybody that’s going, ain’t coming back
|
| My roll dog, took his last stand in Iraq
|
| Watching his mama collapse, cause she can’t take the news
|
| And it’s sad to say, but a lot of mothers gon walk in Mrs. Johnson’s shoes
|
| So my condolences, goes out to the grieving
|
| Lord give me the strength, so I can make it through this evening
|
| What is this world coming to, locking up brothers is a sport
|
| Beat us till we bleed because we breathe, still we lose in court
|
| Mad at me because I’m black, take it up with my maker
|
| You can’t question creativity of the life, giver and taker
|
| I guess, you gon have to deal with me
|
| Why you wondering if I wanna rob you, why not find a way to come and chill with
|
| me
|
| I ain’t nothing but people, I’m just like you
|
| Nothing greater or nothing less, I’m just like you
|
| We are one, shoulder to shoulder
|
| We stand, no promises
|
| No demands, all of us know it
|
| Life is a battlefield
|
| We’re losing our souls, temptation takes hold
|
| Why do we live, life this way
|
| We must take control, of our mind and our souls
|
| Before the death, over face
|
| Cause if we just surrender, and trust in our faith
|
| We’ll all come together, the world will be safe
|
| I’m on a mission, to heal my people
|
| Republicans ain’t even trying to feel my people, we starving for real
|
| Little babies dying of thirst, plus they starving for meals
|
| The main reason, why these teenagers be robbing they peers
|
| America, look at what it’s come to
|
| Sunday morning ain’t no youngsters in the church house, we running the streets
|
| acting a fool
|
| Need to get some Jesus, in our life
|
| That’s the main reason, why we be dealing with so much shife
|
| Straight up kicking it with the devil, and we don’t even know it
|
| Crooked cops hate our guts, and everytime they get a chance they gon show it
|
| My life is a battlefield, cause I strive to survive
|
| Daily busting, trying to lay me in my grave before my time
|
| I can take it, cause I dish it out
|
| I love my people but I’m paranoid, walk up on me my pistol I’ma whip it out
|
| Can’t trust nobody, from my friends to my kins
|
| If I can get up and go get mine, you can get up and get your ends
|
| It ain’t hard, just man plot and strategize
|
| If you focused on your goal, you just might reach it 'fore you die
|
| So I’m focusing just like you, cause I’m just like you
|
| Nothing greater or nothing less, I’m just like you |
