Don't look back 'cause we're all like lightning
4
Here today, then we're gone like lightning

Light up the sky and live for something

Everyone lives, only few become lightning

[Verse 1: Donnis]
12
If you stand for nothing, you'll fall for it all, times is hard
13
These people is losing they jobs, my Homegirl Michelle out here
14
Losing her mom and nah, they ain't got a cure for cancer
15
Her little sister looking up to me for answers
16
All I can do is sit her down and read her the pamphlet
17
But what I'm supposed to say when her mama just vanish?
18
Gone in an instant, God, if you hear this, I need your assistance
19
I wanna be different but all they wanna hear about is drugs and pimp shit
20
Who gon' make a difference? I guess these niggas came with the wrong intentions
21
Manolo got fired, they ain't give him his pension
22
Eight years out in Couveya, he played his position
23
And now he serving things just to make him a living
24
We here on a mission and it starts in the mirror, Lord, can you hear my prayer?
25

[Verse 2: Donnis]
27
When I say this, some people may start to hate me
28
Scared to get a government money to get a Haiti
29
Saw what they did with FEMA, scared to be a believer
30
Donnis no longer rapper, nah, now I'd rather be teacher
31
The day I saw my preacher in a Phantom with security guards
32
He said what up Don? I just gave him a nod
33
Do we need all these things to get closer to God?
34
Then my Auntie Taj bought us Gucci ties, see, where she reside is where dreams die
35
And they don't resurrect, they live in them projects
36
And them government projects don't help 'em the way you think
37
Sometimes I just think that they just want us to lose
38
I see how we depicted on the six o'clock news
39
They feed us drugs and booze until we dazed and confused
40
Damn, I refuse to become another statistic to get caught in the system
41
[Hook]
