1
Dear Lord
2
As we down here, struggle for as long as we know
3
In search of a paradise to touch (my nigga Johnny J)
4
Dreams are dreams, and reality seems to be the only place to go
5
The only place for us
6
I know, try to make the best of bad situations
7
Seems to be my life's story
8
Ain't no glory in pain, a soldier's story in vain
9
And can't nobody live this life for me
10
It's a ride y'all, a long hard ride
11
[2Pac]
12
Somebody wake me I'm dreamin, I started as a seed the semen
13
Swimmin upstream, planted in the womb while screamin
14
on the top, was my pops, my momma screamin stop
15
From a single drop, this is what they got
16
Not to disrespect my peoples but my poppa was a loser
17
Only plan he had for momma was to fuck her and abuse her
18
Even as a little seed, I could see his plan for me
19
Stranded on welfare, another broken family
20
Now what was I to be, a product of this heated passion
21
Momma got pregnant, and poppa got a piece of ass
22
Look how it began, nobody gave a fuck about me
23
Pistol in my hand, this cruel world can do without me
24
How can I survive? Got me askin white Jesus
25
will a nigga live or die, cause the Lord can't see us
26
in the deep dark clouds of the projects, ain't no sunshine
27
No sunny days and we only playED sometimes
28
When everybody's sleepin
29
I open my window jump to the streets and get to creepin
30
I can live or die, hope I get some money 'fore I'm gone
31
I'm only 19, I'm tryin to hustle on my own
32
on the spot where everybody and they pops tryin to slang rocks
33
I'd rather go to college, but this is where the game stops
34
Don't get it wrong cause it's always on, from dusk to dawn
35
You can buy rocks glocks or a HEROINBONG
36
You can ask my man Ishmael Reed
37
Keep my nine heateR all the time this is how we grind
38
Meet up at the cemetary then get smoked out, pass the weed nigga
39
That Hennessey'll keep me keyed nigga
40
Everywhere I go niggaz holla at me, "Keep it real G"
41
And my reply tilL they kill me
42
Act up if you feel me, I was born not to make it but I did
43
The tribulations of a ghetto kid, still I rise
44
[Ta'He]
45
Still I (still I) I rise (I rise)
46
Please give me to the sky (the sky)
47
And if (and if) I die (I die)
48
I don't want you to cry
49
[Yaki Khadafi]
50
I stay sharp as always
51
Runnin ya bricks with blitz, through ya project allways
52
Dumpin crews like two's, nigga all day
53
Secrets of war prepare me for the worst
54
A life that's lavish full of cabbage or a life that's in a hearse
55
But now my dreams it seems though, be placin triple beams and things bro
56
Diamond pinkie ring got the loot poppin out my jeans
57
[Napoleon]
58
Now I plan to keep my glock cocked
59
If trouble was searchin for me then why not?
60
Show em what I'm made of plus raised on, on my block
61
Chancellor Ave, where many turn to the street, thugs snatchin bags
62
We out for power, makin cash it wasn't fast it'll make me mad
63
I'm just like, pimp
64
My homey on the corner with his gat tucked, in
65
Youngest they buckin somethin the life he leads
66
the life he don't need, don't we all know
67
He tryin to rise up and we just go doe, still he rise
68
[Young Noble]
69
Dreams of lost hope
70
I hit the strip broke where the fiends get coke
71
and still I rise now I float cowards ghost
72
Whenever we come around, I'm runnin down
73
clutchin a pound, live as sirens, duckin the sound
74
I used to hustle with my moms till the sun came
75
My homey Harm doin time from this drug game
76
Stolen cars, war scars, born a Outlaw
77
Behind bars, go to sleep just to see the stars
78
Freedom is ours, though we trapped on a firm block
79
Crackheads only ten learn to duck cops
80
[Khadafi]
81
In ninety-six my glock's my plastic, passion for blastin bastards
82
No faces for open caskets, peelin ya cap backwards
83
Ya cowards ain't prepared for pistol practice
84
I send my missiles through your mattress
85
Leavin holes in your body like a cactus
86
While me and my crew be boppin more greens than topic
87
and loot to keep the seams in my motherfuckin jeans POCKET
88
Leavin ya spleen to pick up
89
Half of you niggaz is softer than a Snicker
90
Let's go to war and see who draw quicker
91
and still I rise, and still I rise...
92
[Ta'He]
93
Still I (still I) I rise (I rise)
94
Please give me to the sky (the sky)
95
And if (and if) I die (I die)
96
I don't want you to cry
97
Still I (still I) I rise (I rise)
98
Please give me to the sky (the sky)
99
And if (and if) I die (I die)
100
I don't want you to cry
101
[some little kid]
102
Y'all niggaz fake
103
All day everyday
104
So now I got roller blades, bitch
105
Thought you knew
106
Your mouth is rich
107
C'mon pops, let's go..
