Lord knows if I'll ever find out/ You either livin' on the run, or you tryin' hide out/ Could be stuck on the crime route, with ya 9 out/ As for me, I'm in the booth, gettin' every line out/ I'm out/ Meanwhile, my niggas standin' by the corner like a teacher put em on timeout! (time out!)/ I need a break from the madness, the sickness/ The sadness, I've witnessed, the baddest/ Of situations! And still I'm patient, waitin' for the day to come, when I face the gun/ GOD please come and save ya son/ But ever since Morpheus chose me, I became the One/ Now I'm on the rise, trying to chase the sun/ No fakin', takin' every break that comes/ Debatin' whether I'm a make it, ummm!/ Hard to tell, but I pray it comes/ Cause it'll be the chance for me to answer some and tell em/...

I done seen it all, done some more, seen em short, seen em tall/ Seen em come, seen em fall, seen the summer, seen the fall/ Saw the sea while on a seesaw/ All for one, and one for all, do I know it all, never, I just notice more!/ Got the call, so I answered it/ Give up? Not at all, gotta manage it/ Without damagin', ya manhood, handlin', anything you can again/ Sorry if I'm ramblin', but dammit nigga, I'm a gem/ Diamond in the rough, and its rough when you scramblin'/ Examining ya map, to understand ,why it is you trapped again/ I snapped up out of it, but out of it, came badder shit/ And accidents were happenin', that shouldn't have been happenin'/ So happened I was half the man, that had the plan, I thought I had/ I had to have a talk with me! And it was sad/ I had to ask, to see why I fought for it/ Still confused by the thought of it/ So what's the meaning?

I've! Lived and learned, then learned to live/ Was my turn to give, advice like this, listen! Never burn ya bridge/ Its your only way back, so, God forbid/ You lose that, could you handle it?/ Not me! In all honesty, honestly, I'm not a wanna be, cause I don't wanna be/ Gotta follow prophecy, especially if the prophets me and it'll profit me, cause its part of policy/ So my apologies, to those, that gotta bleed, before you find out what life's about/ Cause then as soon as the shine come, ya lights is out/ Legit, hold ya head my nigga, fight it out/ Ames do the same, you gotta grind it out/ And my conscience told me that the time was now but...
