[Intro] You win some, you lose some But you live, you live to fight another day You think you a man with a gun in your hand, don't you? I'm a man without it, put the gun down [Verse 1: Will BElieve] Time to question our lifestyle, look how we livin' The years fly, people die, we just losing our spirits Was never given the chance to even make a difference But when them shots rang, bout the only time they hear us And I get it, but life ain't meant to be like that Everybody got a past, but we can't turn back Givin' thanks to what I have, so I'm makin' it last Only tellin' you the truth, cause that's just part of the plan I hope you realize, that there's more to life Take my advice, think twice, before you roll them dice You could sacrifice it all before the end of the night When nobody by your side and you asking out why Looking up to the sky, but all you hear is the wind Just close your eyes, visualize, and begin to imagine Of a place, of golden days, when paradise really happened I can feel it in my soul, I know it's better up in heaven [Hook] And I don't know what takes away your pain Brightens up your day, make bad dreams fade away Only if I had the words to say, uh, only if I had the words to say And I don't know if you be feelin' the same It weighs in on my brain, I know something's gotta change Cause only if I had the words to say, yeah, only if I had the words to say [Verse 2: Will BElieve] I wish I was blind to the facts, so I wouldn't have to rap They want to see us gone, so hold on to your cap It's like the rich get it all but they never give it back Then they wonder why we strapped, wit' our hands on the gat Wit' a rat-a-tat-tat, and I guess it's just the way it is We k** each other, but we never know just how we live Still praying for the day when I get to hold my kids That's why I'm giving it my all until I reach my end Hoping the Lord will let me into them Gates Because this world is so cold, I can't feel my face Bodies drop everyday, it's like we numb to the pain And it's the same old thang, so I'm sparking the flame I known you feel me mayne, it's time to use our voice Wake up the whole world, it's time to bring the noise Show 'em you got a choice to know your rights and wrongs Betta do it while you're living, never know when you'll be gone [Hook] And I don't know what takes away your pain Brightens up your day, make bad dreams fade away Only if I had the words to say, uh, only if I had the words to say And I don't know if you be feelin' the same It weighs in on my brain, I know something's gotta change Cause only if I had the words to say, yeah, only if I had the words to say
