From the womb to the world from the world to the grave from the grave to the heavens and my spirit
From the liquor to the drugs to the police and the thugs to my prayers and hope that he hears it Little kids in the street Never sleep never eat Carry burdens of their mommas' and the papas' To the hell on this Earth Gettin' hot gettin' worse Cause were cursed nobody can stop us Take a look see the sights that I've seen See the lust see the greed jealousy and killin' Walk the walk that I've walked All alone in the dark overtaken by this feelin' that I'm feelin' Touch the hand that I've touched In the night what a rush turning blue so could and breathless See the bars and the chains on your wrist on your brain Feel the pain of a grown man's death wish [Chorus] Is this all there is cause I don't want it no more Is this all there is cause I don't want it no more Is this all there is cause I don't want it no more Is this all there is cause I don't want it no more [Verse 2] That's right little mama just keep on walkin' to school Don't stop and talk to them fools Tryin' to holla while they sippin' on brew Cause you're gonna lose Got to stay focused keep your mind on your dreams Don't get hypnotized by the bling deep inside you must believe and you'll succeed Cause all we're given is a chance They play the music and we dance And ain't no way to make it last if we don't stop and listen It could be over in a flash When you killin' for that cash Flip an Apache and blast 'em with Tomahawk missiles Moqtada al Sadr Bin Laden Al Qaeda They all multiplyin' and hidin' and George can't find 'em And even if he did and killed them then another would come We makin' enemies faster than we could pick up a gun [Chorus] Is this all there is cause I don't want it no more Is this all there is cause I don't want it no more Is this all there is cause I don't want it no more Is this all there is cause I don't want it no more [Verse 3] From my soul to my heart From the ending to the start In between it's an art and I live it From one person to the next All respect no regrets If you next you got it then give it Share a hug share the love we can rise up above If we try we can fly up to the heavens All my brothers and my sisters we can make it if we listen to each other and just keep on [Chorus] Is this all there is cause I don't want it no more Is this all there is cause I don't want it no more Is this all there is cause I don't want it no more Is this all there is cause I don't want it no more And I can see this change comin' And I can see this change comin' And I can feel this change comin' |

Now you've been up and you've been down
Stayed strong even though daddy wasn't around My mama through the thick and the thin beginning to end And though I be sinning you keep me livin' with that love that you givin' It's unconditional hey the sun shines when I see a smile on your face My mama with the money and jewels the record and tours I'd give it away if I could make your days happy days And when my hearts broke and can't cope I'm comin' on home To remember the reason why I was born Cuddle up inside your heavenly arms you help me weather the storm You love music so I put it in song. She's an Angel workin' on God's train She's an Angel workin' on me She's an Angel workin' on God's train She's an Angel workin' on me. I wasn't born wild you know you raised me right But the roads of Alabama called me into the night From the coke and the weed and extacy I'm lost in the streets but you still remain next to me The blood that I bleed it flows through your veins Even in my lowest point I can still hear your words to my brain First time I was arrested mama's love was tested I couldn't contest it so here's my confession your my blessing Your the reason I believe your the reason I sing Your the reason angels tangle me in heavenly things It's been a long road so hard and cold But you keepin' me warm with your heart of gold. Cause She's an Angel workin' on God's train She's an Angel workin' on me She's an Angel workin' on God's train She's an Angel workin' on me You're the light at the end of the tunnel the break of the day After the darkest night chasing all the evil away. Your my flowers and sunshine cherries and red wine Diamonds they can't find shining through hard times. Your the angel on Earth the proof there's a God The reason to keep on going your my light in the dark. The first star in the sky and the last to leave And when I'm travelin' through the night I feel your light on me. Cause She's an Angel workin' on God's train She's an Angel workin' on me She's an Angel workin' on God's train She's an Angel workin' on me She's an Angel workin' on God's train She's an Angel workin' on me She's an Angel workin' on God's train She's an Angel workin' on... Workin' on me. |

And I'ma' drink and I'ma' dip and I'ma ride and I'ma' live It's just the way that I play And I'ma' think and I'ma spit and I'ma' fly and I'ma' give Until the end of my day's I'm skippin' stones 'till I'm lost in the world Fall in love and then get lost in a girl You gotta live life and aint no tellin' what tomorrow can bring As long as you breathin' and livin' ya dream You gotta live life + I'm packin' and leavin' travelin' and sight seein' Writin' my name in the sand on the beach in the Caribbean Hittin' the club give a pound and a hug to the thugs Later on I'm makin' love on that bear skin rug (Chorus) Cause I'm skippin' town I'm skippin stones I'm skippin' town I'm skippin' stones I'm skippin' town I'm skippin' stones And all I know is I'm alone (Verse 2) I feel the vibe inside me and I'm not gonna let it go So come on and I'm laughin' and cryin' and buyin' time I'm not gone let it go So come on and I'm findin' a dime thata wanta good time and I'm not gonna let her go So come on and it's all on the line but I'm still gone' shine I'm not gone let it go Hey Slow it down for a minute while I capture the sky Surfing the clouds wind surfin' through a deep sea dive The devil's tryin' to get up in my soul but I'm not gone let it go So come on and I'm drinkin' this spiritual wine so he can't fuck with my flow (Chorus) Cause I'm skippin' town I'm skippin stones I'm skippin' town I'm skippin' stones I'm skippin' town I'm skippin' stones And all I know is I'm alone (Verse 3) Keep on runnin' through all my days He got a need for speed But what you runnin' from playa I think he runnin' from me Take ya time and just relax He ain't got time to take Slow it down and think about it He got moves to make strugglin' and scrapin' takin' chances attemptin' to make it The time that was taken was tedious but fuck it we made it Created much later now playin' n' singin' invaded with Piper n' Dave And the angels bout to make us the greatest Somebody save us the shit that we spittin' soundin' ridiculous Rippin' and gifted with lyrics flavored up more than licorice Shift it and kick it with enough spittage to make it Sickenin' Skippin' stones, mama I'm gone its time to rip this shit (Chorus) Cause I'm skippin' town I'm skippin stones I'm skippin' town I'm skippin' stones I'm skippin' town I'm skippin' stones And all I know is I'm alone |

Verse 1:
Please accept my apologies, I wonder what would have been. Would you have been a little angel or an angel of sin? Tom-boy running around, hanging with all the guys. Or a little tough boy with beautiful brown eyes. I paid for the murder before they determined the sex, choosing our life over your life meant your death. And you never got a chance to even open your eyes, sometimes I wonder as a fetus if you fought for your life. Would you have been a little genius? In love with math? Would you have played in your school clothes and made me mad? Would you have been a little rapper like your poppa The Piper? Would you have made me quit smoking by finding one of my lighters? I wonder about your skin tone and shape of your nose, and the way you would′ve laughed and talked fast or slow. I think about it every year, so I picked up a pen. Happy birthday, I love you for whoever you would′ve been. Happy Birthday Chorus: What I thought was a dream Make a wish Was as real as it seemed Happy birthday What I thought was a dream Make a wish Was as real as it seem I made a mistake Verse 2: I got a million excuses, as to why you died. And other people got their own reasons for homicide. Who′s to say it would′ve worked and who′s to say I wouldn′t have I was young and struggling, but old enough to be a dad. The fear of being my father has never disappeared, I ponder it frequently while I′m sippin′ on my beer. My vision of a family was artificial and fake so when it came time to create, I made a mistake. But now you got a little brother, maybe it′s really you. Maybe you really forgave us knowing we was confused. Maybe, every time that he smiles it′s you proudly knowing that your father′s doing the right thing now. I′ll never tell a woman what to do with her body, but if she don′t love children, then we can′t party. I think about it every year, so I picked up a pen. Happy birthday, I love you for whoever you would′ve been. Happy birthday Chorus (2X) Bridge:(2X) And from the Heavens to the womb to the Heavens again. From the ending to the ending, never got to begin. Maybe one day we can meet face to face, in a place without time and space. Happy birthday. Chorus |
