Going Thru Some Thangs

Feeling Pain
Yeah
I need everybody attention
Know what I'm saying
Lotta people want to really understand me but to understand me you gotta really know me to know me you gotta love me
You gotta love what I stand for
You gotta love why I'm here and what I do while I'm here
You heard me?

I grew up in the gutter put that on my mother
Daddy wasn't home yeah momma struggled
Can't knock my story at the end I saw glory
Trials and tribulations its wasn't right for me
I learned the hard way and see I got wise
Half of my life torchered by daddy lies
The pain gave me strength the strength was a buzz
I had to keep on pushing that's how I found love
Sex was a drug it really slowed me down
Should've read a book but no I'm hitting it from behind
Tried to sell pounds laugh at the times
Damn near got killed for tryna fuck around
Getting jumped at an early age taught me how to live
Momma getting on me saying stack your own Bill's
18 years old confused about life I didn't know what to do I tried to do right

I know you going through some thangs
I know that you feeling pain
Lord knows that I gotta change in this life
In this life

I moved out joined the army welcome to the stripes
They sent me to war my partner lost his life
Tears every night dreams every night
Everything wrong couldn't see nothing right
I'm putting up a fight the land of the free
Bout to give up stick to the creed
That's the g code get ya mind right
They shooting at yaboy every time I ride by
Post traumatic stress disorder that's what I claim
I'm busting at these bustaz
Like I just had lost my brain
Anger torched the flames politics to blame they played chess with me I understand the game
I didn't do it for the medal I didn't do it for the fame
I did it for my folks I did it for the change
Rearrange the game imma take it to the top
Keep it real in my city and watch my cd drop

I know you going through some thangs
I know that you feeling pain
Lord knows that I gotta change in this life
In this life

Its year 04 uncle sam let me go
The first thang I'm thinking dawg it's time to stack doe
Jobs wasn't hiring it was kinda slow
Got tired of waiting so I bought some elbows
The closest thing to dro I copped it for the low
I was in texas so you already know
Cds for the low DVDs for the low
Anything that you wanted I could get it that's fasho
I didn't like to hustle with the game it came some bustaz
I was kinda spook see my partners they got busted
Alotta boys snitching and I was kinda itching
I couldn't trust nobody they reduced my jigga sentence I'm headed back to Memphis back to the pimpn
Texas too hot and that wasn't the business
Enrouting to the miss out I'm back in north Memphis I'm glad to be at home instead of being a damn victim

I know you going through some thangs
I know that you feeling pain
Lord knows that I gotta change in this life
In this life
