What Would You Do?

I’m not where I want to be, but I’m not where I used to be.

Wondering what awaits in front of me, while praying I get the chance to see;

The man that I become, and the story I get to tell;

Of just another young N*gga raised in the slum, Navigating thru Hell.

Where the opportunities are limited, and the resources even more scarce.

Breed in a Dog eat Dog world, the only option is to be fierce.

So, you let me know what you would do?

Enlighten me on the choices you would make.

When there aren’t too many options to begin with;

Let me know which path you would take?

See it’s easy to judge if you’re not the one that has to lace up those shoes;

It’s easy to say what you wouldn’t do if you never have to choose.

So you can spectate and ridicule from the outside looking in…

But honestly, you’ll never truly get to see.

The obstacles I’ve overcome, and the perseverance it takes to Try and Win.

Trust & Believe, It ain’t Easy being me.
