One nightWhen me and my mom was about to go to bedAll the doors was lockedThen when I had fell asleepMy mom had heard three gun shotsIt was to my cousin, his name was RodThe one that came to pick me upHe had been shot right through the face, right in the neckAnd he got shot right in the stomachI put my hand to the sky, I singGrateful for the blessings you bringThank you for the ones I loveForgive me for the times I wasDown and confused, I knowWhat I reap is what I will sowOnce again I find myselfBack with you from my hellAll I ever wanted was to hear them bitches holler backGet some money plus respect and now look, I got all of thatAll I wanna do is see my granny on the other sideAll I wanna do is kill the man that made my momma cryAll I wanna do is touch a platinum plaque and celebrateAll I wanna do is keep my niggas out the yellow tapeAll I wanna do is see my granny on the other sideAll I wanna do is kill the man that made my momma cryRight now I'm starin' out the windowof my Range and contemplating, am I sane?Have I sacrificed for fame?My occupation's on my brainThought that I could change it allif I had changeBut the niggas that I came upwith way back is still the sameI be tryna give 'em game like Santa didwhen Christmas cameThey be listenin' but it's clear to methey did not hear a thingIt go in one ear and out the otherlike a bullet out the muzzle of a pistolshot by brothersstandin' point-blank rangeNiggas bang in the VilleI always thought that shit was strangeHow you claim blood or cuzwhen that was just a La thing?I don't mean no disrespect towards your setno, I'm just sayin'That it seem like for acceptanceniggas will do anythingNiggas will rep any gangniggas will bust any headNiggas will risk everythingpoint him out and then he deadShootin' up where his granny live"blaow, blaow! ", his granny duckHe don't give a fuck, he's on Hennyand Xanny'd upBlowin' Tammy up, bitchwhen you gon' give them panties up?He gon' plant a seed, but best believehe ain't man enoughJust because yo' dick can spray semenit don't mean that you readyto let go of yo' childish waysThe results are deadlyBecause that child will sufferand that's what can most affect meThe little girl I met this past summer said"Don't forget me"I won't forget you, how could Iwith all you went through?A bullet hit yo' cousin in Templewhile he was with youAnd while you was talkin', I was tearin' upwhere's the tissue?If you was my sister then I would kiss youand tell you that I'm sorryfor the pain you had to live throughI know I'm blessed because yo' stressis realer than anything I done been throughI put my hand to the sky, I singGrateful for the blessings you bringThank you for the ones I loveForgive me for the times I wasDown and confused, I knowWhat I reap is what I will sowOnce again I find myselfBack with you from my hellAll I ever wantedwas to hear them bitches holler backGet some money plus respect and now lookI got all of thatAll I wanna do is see my grannyon the other sideAll I wanna do is kill the manthat made my momma cryAll I wanna do is touch a platinum plaqueand celebrateAll I wanna do is keep my niggasout the yellow tapeAll I wanna do is see my grannyon the other sideAll I wanna do is kill the manthat made my momma cryIt's not that bigWell at least, umGod had saved him 'cause he still aliveSo why do y'all think that bad stuff happen?Like why can't the world just be all nice things?Because God is tryna, umWarn-warn us or teach us a lesson that we needto learnOr He's tryna warn us ofHe's comin' back to, um, see usand take us home and redo the worldHe's comin' back to, umhave us be His children and for usto see Him for the first timeso we can rejoice with Him and have our timeAnd after we do thatHe's gonna restart the worldChoose wisely!
