In the face of adversity
I prepared a verse to see
Or hear rather

Destined to win get respect where I live
My reflection contagious I'm the messenger here
Making love to the streets they be lusting for bread
They ain't sleeping until they know every customer fed
When the city was chocolate there was death in the air
All I'm hearing is AIDS I ain't deaf in my ear
Nah I ain't deaf in my ear
But he push them whites in the hood like Ray Evans was there
Shout out to Kirbo he told me I would make it
Now me Tony G and Tre got the keys to the nation
Pray for peace with the babies they a beast in the summer
Of course he fiending for trouble he had a fiend for a mother
Got no leaders among him got no loyalty either
Once the police get to cuffing bet his homie deceive him
See it's cold where they be at on that boat like a pirate
Politicians f***ing hookers why you mad at my ganja
Kick him out of the city force them whites who can pay up
Still different neighborhoods killing over what isn't theirs
Lost my n**** over nothing though
Saeed Alisha I miss you god bless my brother's soul

I feel something change in the weather and I'm home home home
Don't let it drift away like a feather and I'm home home home
And oh I gotta find my way oh I gotta face the day
But oh I can't stay away not never your my home home home

Look I lost my n**** over nothing though
Saeed Alisha I miss you god bless my brother's soul
Ricky is sitting Baba was sitting
Caught up and slipping for fearing a McDonald's position
Seen it over a dollar got him under a flower
Funeral drama n****s mystery baby mamas
They ain't really for condoms I just think that it's shocking
Got no fear in no officer they be scared of them doctors
I'm aware that there's problems no Obama gonna stop it
Where there's minimal conscience and there's thousands of choppers
I know Howard that college but that town has some problems
I done seen embalming fluid ruin a n**** promise
Little women be mamas little n****s ain't fathers
Ain't nobody here leading it's way too easy to follow
They knee deep in today ain't too fond of tomorrow
Although it gets you paper I pray you weighing your options
This is soulful my n**** I'm hoping I am giving a hope to my n****
We just soldiers my n**** don't know you my n**** but know you my n****
This is soulful my n**** hope that I am giving some hope to my n****
We just soldiers my n**** don't know you my n**** but know you my n****
N**** know you my
And you know my n****
Know you my

I feel something change in the weather and I'm home home home
Don't let it drift away like a feather and I'm home home home
And oh I gotta find my way oh I gotta face the day
But oh I can't stay away not never your my home home home

A king's a**assination is why most often fear the hill
So needless to say this leadership is not with a timid sail
I pray these words live and these gimmicks fail
And I pray whenever I'm seen in my city I forever resemble Braille
May your trees be loud and your queens be proud
May you see your dreams aloud before you see them from a cloud
May your glass never reach half empty may your enemies find the inner peace before it ever get to beef
I wish you wealth health and pact free women for yourself
And of s*** ain't the best hope these lyrics help
My n****

I feel something change in the weather and I'm home home home
Don't let it drift away like a feather and I'm home home home
And oh I gotta find my way oh I gotta face the day
But oh I can't stay away not never your my home home home

See I made it from home see I made it alone
And all these peasant motherf***ers take shots at the throne
Time after time again and again
They wanna see a n**** lose but I'm destined to win
