Face My Enemy

Yeah
It's time to face my enemy
We fight everybody else
But sometimes, sometimes
That enemy's inside
Brryuah!

Picture me in a dungeon
Prison walls of my conscious
Shackled up takin punches
Dancin till I discover
A chain ain't a chain
I mean the shackles ain't less or nothin
Pinnin myself down
Writin my own ?
Man I been Forrest Gumpin
That mean forever runnin
You know the deal
When you know the real you
You reel in the feel
But at home it's the real view
Like what's in your glass
What's them ?
You should see a change but you should be at peace
You know the Lord's exposin the beauty and the beast
All my enemies smirkin
I'm at the table tryin to eat
As I'm wipin off the dust see my beautiful feet
I got the gospel with me yea

Flippin the page, yeah the chapter is done
It's time I found a remedy
No lookin back yea it was what it was
Now I know you ain't a friend of me

Somebody's callin it quits
We two cannot coexist
Know what I'm doin shit I barely begun
It's time to face my enemy

I can't lie
I cried a whole lot that night
Little brother man I can't believe they stole your life
I don't get it guess you never know unless you go at night
Man we all still hurtin but we doin alright
They told me death come in threes but I didn't believe it
You ain't even know you lost a couple nephews or nieces
Told my wife that I was finished tryin to make us a seed n
Now I'm glad she had the faith enough to make me believe it
Cuz now we got a little boy and we so glad
He makes me wanna be a better man so bad
Listen to, Daddy loves you, Daddy loves you
I'm just tryin hard to be somebody that you can look up to
And that's why I'm fightin all my vices, fightin all my struggles
And takin that into my life with you
I'ma show you how to treat your momma, love, respect her and not a
Pretty girl you know I'd die for you
And though we've been through thangs, joy and pain
And we still ride, baby our loves the same
And ain't no other lady got a chance
You can best believe that I'm your man and I ain't goin nowhere
And I know that you forgiven me
But I had to face my enemy
I ain't goin down like that ay
I ain't lookin for no sympathy
But I gotta face my enemy
