Hold up stop ma let me get a look at'cha

Girl I ain't seen you since prom

Come to think about it can't believe it's been that long

I heard your man locked down now how long he gone

Oh that long how the hell'd he get time like that

Three strikes with posession aw he ain't coming back

He left you with two kids and bills all around

Plus you found out he had another chick 'cross town

It's always the darkest ah right before the sunrising

And you gotta stay strong for the kids in they eyes and

And please don't despise and go against all brothers

And have a hatred in your heart and take it out on another

I hate to sound 2Pac ish lil' mama but keep ya head up

But you gon' make it I promise you keep your head up

And that that don't kill you only makes you stronger

And the will to succeed'll only feed the hunger f'real f'real f'real

Hey

Oh oh oh oh oh

I was at the gas station when a man walked past

With a sign will work for food clothes or cash

And he asked if he could pump my gas so I let him

Clean the windshield and throw out the trash so I let him

Hey I even asked the brother his name

Where he was from got kids man and what's they ages

He kinda sturred for a second he kinda looked surprise

That anyone would even take an interest in his life

He said young brother dem the only wurrds I done hurrd in the last yurr

That wasn't low or get the f**k away from hurr

How could something so simple as general conversation

Mean much more than general conversation hey

You could tell life had beaten him down

Like he was in a title fight and this might be his last round

Sometimes the easiest things we take for granted

Until they gone to realize we even had it f'real f'real f'real

Hey

Oh oh oh

And they say

Oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

Yeah yeah

Hey

Oh oh oh

And they say

Oh oh oh oh

I used to think that life had a plan for me

Until I realized life meant to be planned by me

See that's the key I only deal with what I can see

Cause over history mystery brought us nutting but misery

Man mo' people done died in the name of the Lord

Than in any natural disaster disease or gang war

Before guns there was swords and they was killing each other

Ain't much changed since the days we still killing each other

Killing our brothers while another mother cries for help

Man we need to help a brother find himself

Feed him life ah one two three

Hey that's something e'ry brother should see and that's f'real

And that's f'real

And that's f'real

Hey

Oh oh oh

And they say

Oh oh oh oh

Oh oh

Yeah yeah hey

Oh oh oh oh

And they say

Oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh
