This could be my last moment
Road to success but you know the path's lonely
Life is a race and that's what my Dad told me
No award for giving up in a catastrophe
If this was a war then I'd always attack homie
Awarded in cash so they don't throw a tax on me
But if there was a draft Uncle Sam would want me
I'm a Chris Black Ohio tee there's no tag on me
And by that I mean no dog tags, it's all black
I'd talk to walls but they don't talk back
So I talk to God cause He's all we have
In this army I am hardly in almanac - ain't even a number yet
So don't ask questions like "where do you think you're headed?"
As long as my head is on top of my shoulders it's Heaven
Until then it's: give it my all, if I fall in the wrong direction
I'll count my blessings; only guarantee is death and
Birth / And time on this Earth
What you do with it matters; every lie is a burn
Til your trousers catch fire and you try not burn
The truth taught me myself. What's a liar gon' learn?
Rhyming has earned me the right to self expression
Many man died for what they said so what's the First Amendment
I trust the Founders; they were truly indebted
2 hundred years ahead of their time; they knew the consequences of
Giving up what we had for government protection
The Constitution's threatened; only Amendment's left the Second
Now people on TV saying that we don't need weapons
Guess Hitler, Mao, and Stalin never taught us all a lesson.
Damn... Well I'ma load up.
Be waiting at my front door when they show up
I'll hold my house down until this bitch blows up
Hitman puts a hole in me for money - he's a doe nut.
Ya know what? This is my last moment
Road to success but you know the path's lonely
Life is a race and that's what my Dad told me
There's no award for giving up in a catastrophe, I said
This is my last moment
Road to success and you know the path is lonely
Life is a race and that's what my Dad told me
There's no reward for giving up in a catas(trophy)
