Progress

Yo
You are now in the section of truth,
With a real moutha fucka, I could bless you a trues
I forgive you if you sorry, cause I mess up too
Only difference is, I'm the one who messed up boo
I been on it for a long time too,
Since the kid was kid, but still the kid is true
This is how a beast grows when it gets set loose
Only a fellow monster knows how to hunt our food
Check it out, survival of the fittest my dude
Fuck the money, none of you have thought yo business through
And this is just a message to you
I am just for representin what my dukes went through
I believe in all the struggle, cause the shit ain't new
So if you stressin, can't sleep, no I don't blame you
God's got another plan, I'm just tellin you that I understand.

I know you gotta do what you gotta do
You know I gotta do what I gotta do
I know you gotta do what you gotta do
You know I gotta do what I gotta do

Now I done seen some fucked up thangs
Done been in love before, and its a fucked up game
Enough to make a picture of some fucked up pain
No funds for school, its a fucked up pain
Gotta hustle so my love ones can eat still
I ain't even have a meal, I'm just eatin these beats
Now 911 wanna kill us in streets
When in the ghetto all we need is some peace and some belief
Where is hope we can hold on to
I look for lovin in you, please let me hold on you
Just imagine if you had no one to hold on to
What would us kids grow on to
Well look at me and call me fake
I look at me and I see mistakes
I look at them and I see no faith
So follow what I'm sayin, Ima lead the way

I know you gotta do what you gotta do
You know I gotta do what I gotta do
I know you gotta do what you gotta do
You know I gotta do what I gotta do

Its too many bitches whose crossed the line
Its too many niggas not crossin my mind
If they say time is money, then they lost all time
And before we know its crime, it done crossed our minds
Never knew the value of life till I almost saw death
I always thought if it ain't right now, then it ain't progress
Learnin how success is a flower taught me a process
To all the profit to make a youngin heartless
Money can't change me dog
All my old friends say I ain't the same me dog
Clearly not, I'm not broke I ball
I'm in a foreign ass country don't expect my call
