i'm proud of how i turned my life around
the world does not evolve around me and go round and round
it all came down to the choices i make
best believe i didn't get all of the breaks
life is about lessons to learn
respect is something i needed to earn
as a kid, i love pal
no, im not referring to having a best friend, meant P.A.L
Police Athletic League was my foundation
i revolutionalize the meaning of sports as a way to form collaboration
i play sports and became the best
i represented the east coast in which i was above the rest
as i got older, i ran away from that love of sports and got involve with people who i thought were cool
at the end when the ceiling hit the fan, i ended up looking like a fool
for what? acceptance? popularity?
all i remember was feeling shame for what i've done
at least the lord said that i was not gone
i did my time for what i did
poor choices lead to consequences in which i had to do a bid
when i realize that place made me feel like an aninal being caged
i knew in my heart i didn't belong to that place that made me feel outraged
i felt trapped and shedded more tears than 2pac
i knew i needed to get away from the block
life taught me who were my friends and guess what
there were no where to be founded so i knew i was better than that
it was time to change my life-not who i am, but the way i went about things
my life was about to change that is shiner than baby rings
im proud to say that im a life saver
im not asking for a free waiver
just listen to my story
because god listen and gave me my glory
