Clams Casino - Rebirth lyrics

[Intro] If I die before I wake At least I lived life my way Hope that you remember me Came up fast, bittersweet Please prepare me mentally ‘Fore you take my song on MTV [Interlude] Now that you're no longer a lord that's trapped You have graduated to the Hood Pope You have made it to represent your people Show them another way Be the voice of the people who couldn't make it out the hood [Verse 1] Make sure my family good, my ma still in the hood I ain't rich like they think cause I copped me one mink They think I got me a house with a big couch and a gold sink With a model b**h with a gold ring, big a** fish in a fish tank Haha, you laughing, just put me in my casket I ain't even into nagging, it's what it is, I'm pa**ing [Interlude 2] And though times is hard now, your success awaits them I'm no different what y'all are saying Ferg made it out? Well, I can play that game You're not exempt from the growing chain n***as forget who's afraid to change You're the trapped lord, I will remain [Verse 2] Hood Pope, I'ma teach these confused folks how to maneuver Through folks and attention, get you choked, you know Slim model girls sniffing the coke Fiend on the block sniffin' the dope I wanna help, I don't know Tell me the, antidote How you hood and a pope Conscious thinking, ghetto though I'll teach you how to build a grow tree Life like a bike and pedal slow [Interlude 3] Now you're the voice of the guys on the corners And the kids who have no direction, guide them Through the trials and the tribulations Teach them the world can be accumulated with patience [Outro] If I die before I wake At least I lived life my way Hope that you remember me Came up fast, bittersweet Please prepare me mentally ‘Fore you take my song on MTV
