My philosophies are pretty complicated
People may understand it as hating
Jealousy is hard to over come, so I
Use it for my advantage, so I
Can make another hit, that'll show my pain
The experience I go through everyday
Molds the character I've been building
Mom and dad started me off, now no quitting
Eighteen years deep and I've been through
Everything from girls to being so rude
Hurting other folks wit ignorant words
Can't take it back, so what now? Hard work
So the next time I'm stuck, deciding
Have to make a choice; it's hard, I'm writing
All the stress over and over again
Using my paper n pen to express what's left
Of my dignity in a world so cruel to me
I gotta take a stand for everything I see
The injustice society is handing out for free
I believe that in everything there's a fee
Either it's cash or a person's welfare
You got to pay in life, and it's fair
Me, I stop asking god why, now I spare
My time to be there when no one else cares
Life is never constant, to me there's change
Can't live life on one thing, because there's ways
Too many to know them all and understand
That one has to keep searching, so I rap
Add on to my resume I built in my life
Hobbies turn to ambition work then dies
Why? It gets boring after the last step
There's a day that I'll quit, stop, and rest
But it's okay; I won't forget what I picked up
Because that's where my heart was, I sinned but
It shaped my character that desires for more
A better place, for all of us in store
Experience from doing bad, now wanting good
Got to work for that, it's hard, I elude
Back off from doing the right thing
When it matters most, it's a wise thing
To learn the first time, I wish I could
But I'm hard headed; I'm slow too
Stingy, people may say I am,
Probably it's true, but then again
I don't have emotions when it's the time
I do it on my own, when alone I cry
It's hard for a guy to be understood
When the only person, who cares, is you
Whether it's Buddha, Allah, or god
You believe in all of the above
It takes a man to understand all that
Doesn't matter the form, but what lasts
Religion is a gang when there's too much
Group mentality that's when brains are washed
I stay away from that, but read the words
Study, observe, sometimes I'm forced
It's all right though; I'm good to go
Strong enough to know what's right from wrong
But I'm pulled back in, when I made it
Out of peer pressure, won't be faded
Just become more sophisticated
Day in day out it's aggravating
To go through all sorts of things so I
Have faith in god, no matter how I
End up in a bad situation, I'm hating
Jealous of my neighbors, I'm saying
To myself the grass is greener across the fence
Hence I have to work for the better, the best
Envy of others, gives me conviction
So I can have faith to do what I did
Write chronicles of what I believe in
Till it's time for me to stop breathing
Family is important to me
It's what I see in my future to be
What I want to fulfill in life
A steady job, kids and a wife
Close knit because I never had it
I want to provide, all that, I'll give
After I live to my capabilities u see
What's more important than me are these
Folks around me helping me find myself
Just like I'm going to help my kids, I'll tell
All the wisdom I'll gain through these years
I'll go through without anything to fear
I know where I'm going; I think I do at least
Challenge everything till my enemies decease
Stop the deceit and quit being meant to me
By lying, doing everything but knowing me
Understanding me or taking a chance to try
Me, I wonder why humans have narrow eyes
Narrow minds, to use, sometimes I lose it
But the thing holding me together is the glue in
My family provided at a young age,
On them as a place for my faith,
God's pending I know it, working just as much
As I am so that's where I find my love at a glance
