Plez Read MY LIFE STORY See I was made in my fathers image and they belittle my deeds Their lust for convictions pledge allegiance to the almighty power and greed See seeds born withered parents still children adolescent to their ways Some preachers false prophets educated pigeon droppers using our sins to get paid Slaves - give them freedom but give them dope Take away their leader cause that give them hope Sell them dreams of changing things like they were never kings and queens befo As small as a giant As small as a giant, Im still ridin Hand on my sword good Lord I need time Watch for the sun-eaters blocking our shine Enlighten my kind, reason for rhyme Imma find Zion, free my soul Repent for all the things I done until my eyes closed When the boat man come Im paying my toll Outside the gates of Heaven, pray to God Im chose As small as a giant The beginnings kinda dark, not too soft Fairly hard drenched with love from my mother, connected to her struggle till she cut me loose Now what shall I do? It was all so easy look at how they treat me ever since she pushed me through Now put me back in and stop these contractions Water breaking, aw damn I know its bout to happen Failed to fix, no picket fence, a dream deferred (?) liquor chillin with my niggas swishas and herb Eviction notices, hopelessness thrown on my shoulders God wont give you more than you can handle, carry theses boulders Give it all I got until I get older, couple medals on my sleeves cause life made me a soldier Reminisce on how it was way back when, when some things were better off way back then As small as a giant, a promise soul divided Probably aint surprised in so long since we sung such over Lords camp fires Cosbys was cool but television is a lie Some reason I relate to survivor Fresh Prince but no Uncle Phil The Carltons that I knew never stayed where we lived Couldnt play with those kids When they were reading books we were playing cops and crooks When they was writing essays, I was writing hooks Mama Ill be that nigga on TV, cause people like Bow Wow and Soulja Boy make it look easy No Big Pun intended, hoping they get offended Im throwing up if these niggas spittin Didnt write it but recite it like puppets on strings Belittled as a peasant but my bloodline is of kings Knight in shinning armor for this rap shit, I slash quick Far as a man spit leaving gashes on these industry bastards They cant see what is real, dont know how I feel They werent raised where I live In Richmond Rise and shine, no time for sleep, thinking bout eating Leaving this place long gone I get no service on this earth I need to phone home Did too much dirt to talk to God, nowadays I get the dial tone Try again tomorrow, my heart filled with sorrow My family broke too so why bother try trying to borrow No car, no house, drug dealing, feeling like it might be my only option to get meals What else could I do? Put yourself in my shoes If you had no whip youd take some shortcuts too Their aint no time to be wasted, the world is going under Nowadays cant tell fall from spring and winter from summer I wonder if this was meant to be, maybe all the bullshit was meant for me, takes a lot of energy Break these chains and erase these thangs society put up on our brain How can I explain it, we aint free yet Obama cool but he aint sending me no free checks They killing all my niggas Lord forbid Ill be next No now, got too many sorrows to say Kisses to give, they dont feel how I feel They werent raised where I live, Richmond
