D. Peoples - Mr. Seven Pounds lyrics

[Intro: Lavell Jones] Possess the stamina for more than 12 rounds Cause I give my whole heart, it's Mr. Seven Pounds [Hook: Tremell and Shawn B] If you look me in my eyes You would realize that I'm headed for the skies Pushing for success, I'ma bring it home I'ma hold my own, if I gotta stand alone, yeah But they try to tell me slow down Haters try to stop me, but I'm on a roll now Try to understand this is all I am I'm just a broken man, take all I am [Verse 1: Derrell Peoples] Developing better plots, caught up in clever thoughts of trying to grow But you know it's a process Trying to go from being feeble to monstrous, frosty the snow man to lochness, mayne In this society, trying to find sobriety, deprived of pride & my rights been denied to me A slogan goes to be all that you can be, but its tough when you lack all the tools that you may need Just a dollar and a dream, and a member from my team, a remembrance of the ones who really didn't believe See, back at home the situation was gloom we needed room so we made the move to Orlando to bloom And now I make it hard to respirate, with no hesitation, exceed expectation Posses the stamina for more then 12 rounds, cause I give my whole heart, it's Mr. Seven Pounds [Hook] [Verse 2: Lavell Jones] It's hard to see far when your vision is so cloudy And it's hard to settle down when your mind is so rowdy Oh no, don't go, can't move, too fast, see snakes in gra** can't let them pa**, at all Gotta pick yo back right up off of that wall Cause they just wanna see you fall, and all in all wanna see you fall They want you dead or go to jail, oh well play ball or go to Yale This world so tough make you wanna yell, oh well Tell me what it's hittin fo See me right now watch me give some mo Can't go back to the days when we was po All my life I've seen highs and lows Lows and highs, feel like Will Ferrell in The Other Guys Probably got evicted bout 6 times, and right back then write 6 more rhymes, life and times Yeah, and that's real rap, wanna ride in somethin' that's black on black Wanna keep the peace but I will keep that strap Sorry young n***as we don't know to act, oh man But I'm so glad when one becomes and when its all said it done, you'll see what we've become [Hook] [Outro: Lavell Jones] Possess the stamina for more than 12 rounds Cause I give my whole heart it's Mr. Seven Pounds, go Seven Pounds, it's Mr. Seven Pounds, whoa Seven Pounds, it's Mr. Seven Pounds, you hold it down Seven Pounds, it's Mr. Seven Pounds Cause I give my whole heart it's Mr. Seven Pounds, go Seven Pounds, it's Mr. Seven Pounds Give my whole heart it's Mr. Seven Pounds, hold it down
