So as the hours and minutes pass in
the dream of my demise.
Tell my momma not cry.
These are word from the wise.
Look at Miss Liberty and promises she has broken
For the better, keep on hoping powerful words that I have spoken Some will remember me as a kid convicted of a felony just cuz I acquired my knowledge in the street
I came out different, instead of bad, I came out good.
Like a rose growing from concrete.
Many would say “He never came out as I thought he would
Change their mind till the day I die, but gout cuz God was there to help me. Life’s a gamble and going to keep scrambling until I come out wealthy. Forget what they think of me, This is my biz. I don’t care if you disagree, but I’m gonna make ys’ll remember this. And I’m gonna say to everyone with a frown. “Don’t be sad for me, but please smile for me now”
