Do you ever like, sit there and think like

What is life

I do, I′m not scared of nothingI seen the devil in the basement

I freak myself out how beautiful my life is

I freak out how blessed I am

If you don't know where you are going

In this cold world, don′t fear

Open your heart, your mind, keep growing

Deep within time, you'll heal

I'm all about my family now

Out the booth I rather chill at my grandmas house

Give ′em the truth and they ask what is that about

One phone call changed everything without a doubt

Homies doing lines in they bathroom

Coked out, they can′t handle the bad news

Zoned out in the back of the Lac

Getting tattoos for their dad, man, what a bad dude

Somewhere lost, and others act brand new

They don't know what to do, I′m in the same shoes

Do I stay, do I go, I just can't choose

But I do what I can do man I can′t loose

If I let the devil in, I'm a damn fool

Got a cross on my chest pointed at you

Had a soul bulletproof but it bled through

Try to aim a bullet through my heart, I won′t let you

I'm tryna reach heaven, I can't get through

Must be the cell phone, I hear no dial tone

They say time heals all wounds

What do I do if my watch broke, I don′t have a clue

Staring at the clock gets old

And talking to a wall gets me nowhere

I need my passion sold, need to hit platinum or gold

So I can go ghost man I don′t belong here

Pacheco, you don't understand

You gotta keep it going bro and you know what

Thank God I met, that your dad was my homeboy

And introduced me to you

And the way you talk about being in the hood

You are in the hood, your whole life

Your grandpas still right there, huh

If you don′t know where you are going

In this cold world, don't fear

Open your heart, your mind, keep growing

Deep within time, you′ll heal

Think he's bad when he pulls out his gun

Look death in the eyes, and see it start to run

Got best friends writing best friends letters

From prison, wishing, for things to get better

But their best friends′ killer only got a few years

He'll live better in a cell, than living out here

'Cause there′s a gang, ready to retaliate

Better hide, set it straight, where′s a better day

Waking up nervous about the court case

Thinking back, when times were more simple

When we didn't have to mourn, and grieve

Now we′re locked in a cage and my mind feels crippled

Do the time, don't let it do you

Can′t press rewind, but you can play it through

Never lie, it's not hard to stay true

Same motto ′til you die, with the same mood

My dawg said it best

I'm from a place where you don't know whose your real friends

They might be cool with you, might be your enemy

They′re either talking to your enemies or talking to the feds

Now we have a fear of change

Can you blame us, for thinking whose next

I got a text from my boy around six a.m.

Said I can′t handle another brother dead, and that's real

You know what, Pacheco, don′t let nobody stop you dawg

'Cause people tell me, does he drink, does he do drugs

I say fuck no, this motherfuckers on his grind

I promise you, you′re the key, for everybody

And you gotta cut off some people sometimes, you do

If you don't know where you are going

In this cold world, don′t fear

Open your heart, your mind, keep growing

Deep within time, you'll heal

If you don't know where you are going

In this cold world, don′t fear

Open your heart, your mind, keep growing

Deep within time, you′ll heal
