"At times I feel like my back's against the wall, And if y'all ain't with me, then it's me against y'all. I stand my ground, that's what I was taught; While others stand around, I hold it down like a fort. In the midst of war, I find peace within; Run, lock your doors, don't let the beast get in. The mind is a terrible thing to waste, I show love cause it's a terrible thing to hate. Of course I want money, but I won't compromise, Y'all don't realize, think I won't bomb you guys? With the truth. [...] My sense of self, and my mental health Is much more powerful than any hint of wealth." "One shot’s all you got at this life Caused ‘nuff strife but now you under the knife You could've should've gone a different way before you lost the whole plot. Blinded by the flash of one shot!" "I never need no gimmicks and shit to get me over." "I wasn't livin' rich and I also wasn't poor. I try to appreciate, but I deserve more." "The mind must be nourished, so the truth can flourish!" "You want a chance in life? You gotta take one. Forget mistakes in life, we all make some." "Getting education is very necessary! It can save you from jail or even from cemetery. Be smart! Do not follow your friends."
