1, 2
2
She was only 15 and loved R-N-B
3
She had to have vision cause she saw the star in me
4
Encouraged me to write about the drama in my life
5
To most I seemed strange like something wasn't right
6
I used to fall a victim to the lunchroom comedians
7
Something like an outcast, started smoking weed and then
8
I sort of fell in to my own
9
Kind of felt at home when behind a microphone
10
But on the bus ride home, that didn't mean a thing
11
Harassed by thugs, on the corners they would hang
12
I got banged on, I got beat down
13
Carrying the golf club, walking up the street now
14
They respect me, they call me crazy
15
At least I'm not getting punk'd out on the Daily
16
And when I look back, I wouldn't change a thing you know
17
Why d'you think I found this trip, I'm speakin' to y'all
18
[Chorus]
19
I'll take everything
20
(your hopes and your dreams and your hate and your lies)
21
Um, um, um, in this life, I'll join everyone,
22
(from the old and the wise to the young as they fly, fly, fly, fly)
23
When I die
24
God is love, then Hatin' is Satan
25
This anti-patience has got me sittin' here waitin'
26
For the day when it's OK to love
27
When black men won't pretend they're thugs
28
When teachers and doctors are treated like celebrities
29
You could get a job even if you got a felony
30
Check out my melody, let's live in harmony
31
We're in this together, no man has a conomy
32
No man is an island, immune to the violence
33
This rap race is no place to raise a child in
34
What's wrong with smiling? What's wrong with peace?
35
What's wrong is squashing people before they label you deceased?
36
Swallow your pride before you choke on your issues
37
I know you got family and folks that'll miss you
38
So don't misuse this gift you've been given
39
This life's but a dream, you're blessed to be livin'
40
I'll take everything,
41
(your hopes and your dreams and your hate and your lies, lies, lies, lies)
42
Um, um, um, in this life, I'll join everything
43
(from the old and the wise to the young as they fly, as they fly, fly, fly)
44
When I die
45
Basically man, I'm just a dude that tries to do right.
46
You know, I try to make my, my tomorrows better than my yesterdays.
47
Without, without hurting anyone else in the process.
48
Cause if you leave the world a better place than it was when you got here
49
Then we all win, we all win!
50
That is birth and is death but the space in between
51
Is where the journey takes place and you give it all meaning
52
It's waitin' on us all.
53
There's no need to pretend
54
No freedom in the feeling where you're fearin' the end
55
All good things come to it.
56
Walk, don't run to it
57
Times you want to end it all yourself, don't do it.
58
Be original, be different
59
Be the one that stands up and shuts this system!
60
I'll take everything,
61
(your hopes and your dreams and your hate and your lies, lies, lies, lies)
62
Um, um, um, in this life
63
I'll join everyone
64
(from the old and the wise to the young as they fly, as they fly, fly, fly)
65
When I die
66
I'll take everything
67
Um, um, um, in this life
68
I'll join everything
69
Cause old men die
