[Intro]
[Verse 1]
By now I seen the glory, the coming of the Lord
Tell me is it bad I turned the channel cause I was bored
Seen women at who*e there way to success
Can't look at they self in the mirror cause they think they a mess
And I can confess all of my demons and put them on wax
When I was six a n***a hit me and I ain't him him back
And I've been feeling like a b**h ever since I left the playground crying
My daddy like why you ain't hit him? cause he bigger than I am
Called me a punk and my momma called me the same thing
Couldn't imagine the dent it left in my dang brain
The same brain making A's that got them proud of me
But I see they can't defend me when a n***a beat the sh** up out of me
Cowardly, two timing, I see I should pursue rhyming
And let them know I'm through whining
And y'all can kiss my two diamonds
And y'all poop licking shoe shining b**hes that want to get with me
My epiphany, y'all ain't sh** to me
[Hook]
Life is about d**h
My angel on my right and got the devil on my left
They want me to do right but still they pull me to the left
So I be fighting demons till I take my last breath (till I Take my last breath)
I say life is about d**h
I'm pushing and I'm pushing till I ain't got nothing left
They want me to do right but still they pull me to the left
So I be fighting demons till I take my last breath (till I take my last breath)
[Verse 2]
I been broke, know how to stretch it till its ample
Type of n***a that make a dinner out of free samples
Cause I be grabbing handfuls and running out the store
Dropping cheese and crackers and crackerjacks at the door
At my lowest point I was seventeen with a d**h wish
Told myself I'm a off myself when I finish this breakfast
Got a heart the size of Texas, but I can't seem to protect this
When I catch this n***a that f**ed my girl I'm a be so reckless
And again I must confess this cause I can't seem to accept this
I love my momma Nia with a pa**ion
But I remember being so bashed in, way back when
She told me girls cheat when n***as don't handle business as men
Felt like a has been, better yet a never was
Did she mean to hurt me? Nah
Will I forget? Never cause
Everything I ever does come from being slighted
Trying to get my wrongs righted, can't fight it
[Hook]
[Interlude]
It's the power of Christ, it compels you
The power of Christ compels you (x5)
[Verse 3]
I'm Hades, born in the 80's
Or at least I see him
Looking at my reflection but I don't want to be him
Carpe Diem the motto but I don't think I can follow
I'd rather seize me a hollow
Load it and squeeze it till Tahoe
And when I go to meet him I got a bone to pick
Why you put me in the path of fake n***as and phony chicks
Only get one life, so live it vivid
Or end up livid, go get it
Ain't on this planet to visit, ya dig it, ya feel me?
[Hook]
