Understand
So please,
Tell me why people starve so much,
until they die.
Tell me why I never asked for handouts.
I had to get it all,
on my own
Started so young and seems so grown
Big heart for everybody else but none,
For my own
Now ya trippin’ if you ever felt sad to have a home.
That got me thinkin’ a lot to the dome.
Cause you see here,
You see
Sometimes people choose not to eat
Sometimes my stomach hurt when I had nothing to eat
Because
Mama can ́t put food on the table because,
She was drowned in heroin,
I was drowning in all her fables .
See now I never gave her a label but
Mama
Never blame nobody for my struggles because,
I'm honored
To have a life
When i was a child never had to pay a dollar
But you see I had to run to what I wanted when I got older
Because
I had
An angel and a devil on my shoulder.
Understand
I never planned for what slipped out my hands
I never planned for which people belong on this land,
And i stand
And will die
With everything that i have said
And will say
Just damn
Understand.
