[Verse]
[ ]
If I could recollect a-from my hood days
I sit and reminisce, thinkin of bliss on the good days
I stop and stare at the younger, my heart goes to em
They tested with stress that they under
And nowadays things change
Everyone s ashamed of the youth cause the truth look, strange
And for me it s a first
We left em a world that s cursed, and it - hurts
Cause any day they ll push the button
And all come in like Malcolm X or Bobby Hutton died for nuttin
Don t it make you get teary, the world looks dreary
When you wipe yo eyes see it clearly
There s no need for you to FEAR me
If you take your time and HEAR me, maybe you can learn to CHEER me
It ain t about black or white cause we human
I hope we see the light before it s ruined, my ghetto gospel
[Chorus]
Those who wiiiiish to follow me (my ghetto gospel)
I welcome with my haaaaaaaaaands
And the red sun sinks at last, into the hills of gold
And peace to this young warrior, without the sound
of guns
[Verse]
Tell me do you see that old lady, ain t it sad
Livin out of bags, plus is glad for the little things she, has
And over there there s a lady, crack got her crazy
Guess who s givin birth to a, baby?
I don t trip and let it fade me
From out of the fryin pan, we jump into another form of slavery
Even now I get discouraged
Wonder if they take it all back, will I still keep the - courage?
I refuse to be a role model
I set goals, take control, drink out my bottles
I made mistakes, but learned from every one
And when it s said and done, I bet there s got to be a better one
If I upset you don t stress, never forget
That God is up in this with me yet
I feel his hand on my brain
When I write rhymes I go blind and let the Lord do his, thang
But am I less holy?
Cause I chose to puff a blunt, and drink a beer with my homies
Before we find world peace
We gotta find peace within the war in the streets, my ghetto gospel
[Chorus]
Those who wiiiiish to follow me (my ghetto gospel)
I welcome with my haaaaaaaaaands
And the red sun sinks at last, into the hills of gold
And peace to this young warrior, without the sound
of guns
