1
This one here's for The Creator
2
'Trying to get over...' like Curtis Mayfield said
3
I was a problem child, running wild in the night
4
Livin on a not-so-safe set of life
5
Caught up in the rapture, quick to blast ya
6
Neglected as a juvenile, so labelled a 'ghetto bastard'
7
Forced to live the life of a hoodster on the prowl
8
Goin through my life with a permanent frown
9
But still you stood by me and you got me here safely
10
Never turned away from me when others lost faith in me
11
Even when I was a non-believer and doubted your existence
12
You still shed mercy on my ignorance
13
How can I say this, no words can't explain
14
How much I thank you for helpin me deal with the pain
15
For sparin my life at times I thought I was through
16
All praise is due, here's to you
17
So
18
[ CHORUS ]
19
This is for the lover in you
20
This is for the things that you do
21
This time I will take up for you
22
Cause your love's gon' last forever
23
Now as I reminisce like Minnie Riperton in a Pendleton
24
I'm havin flashbacks 'lookin at these photographs'
25
Glancin at old flicks of me and my dogs
26
Thinkin how we all played little league football
27
No set-trippin, we was down for one another
28
>From pups to mutts, we came up, Westside hustlers
29
You couldn't stop us, no matter what you told us
30
Starched Curduroys with the fresh peachy folders
31
Washington High School, damn, them was the days
32
The 12th grade came and we went our own ways
33
Doin what we had to do to make ends meet
34
Some of us went to college and some kicked the streets
35
Some of us passed away, some just faded
36
Some turned snitch, and some is incarcerated
37
Me, I been blessed to catch wreck over beats
38
But without you, this wouldn't be complete
39
So
40
[ CHORUS ]
41
(Ooh child, things ain't gettin any easier...)
42
Survivin in the ghetto you gotta stay strong
43
But realistically no man out here can make it alone
44
Ain't no sleepin, none of us creepin
45
I see the men that's in the streets, and
46
Smokers fiendin, the drama got me thinkin
47
How I need to play as if I was a Stylistic
48
And stop and look and listen
49
Take a second out to count my blessings
50
Cause you coulda laid me down a long time ago
51
But you let me live, and God knows I ain't a angel
52
So I'ma take this opportunity to flip the script
53
For the lover of you, cause props is due
54
For sparin my life at times I thougth I was through
55
I gotta give it up, here's to you
56
So
57
[ CHORUS ]
