Intro

Stop living in a fantasy

Wake up and face reality

People call us the minorities

But we are the majority

Verse 1

They say we don't have dreams

'Cause all we do is hang on the streets

Well its just time to prove them wrong

It's time for us to be strong

I know it's hard to change your ways

But today is a new day

Look around and ask yourself

Is this the place you want to be for eternity

Who said life would be easy

It's no such thing as an easy street

You gotta work hard to make the money

And it's not by being lazy

You say you're gonna change

And start going to school

But you waste your breath

Because you never do

All you do is act like a thug

Puffing on that drug

That's real cool you're such a fool

How 'bout you make that change today

No hesitating, no more waiting, no more waiting

Chorus

Do it now (2x)

Let the worries go

Don't let the haters be in control 

Do it now (2x) 

Don't wait before it's too late 

Verse 2

We all know someone that's ashamed of their life 

Because they play too many games too many times

When reality bit them they want to leave

Because now they can't change their fate 

I know that's not where you want to be 

You have dreams to succeed

So break the chains and use your brains 

Go and complete school 

Stop acting like a fool fool

Don't throw your life away 

And choose your actions wisely

Repeat Chorus 

Bridge 

Just because you come from the 'hood

It doesn't mean you're no good 

Don't let your surroundings drown you in doubt 

There's a way out 

You can be what you want to be 

If you believe 

It's time to make your dreams come true 

Turn your grey skies blue

Stop wondering 

What people might say

You'll make mistakes along the way

Repeat Chorus

Outro

Stop living in a fantasy 

Wake up and face reality 

People call us the minorities

But we are the majority

How could you look at me as if everything is ok?

I lost all respect for you

You chose crack over me, your own child?

What is wrong with you?

We sat here day after day starving because of you

You took and you stole all of our money

So you can get right? At least that's what you said crack does for you

I'm tired of this

I'm tired of staying up all night wondering where you are

I'm tired of my sisters and brothers crying

Because they want you home to comfort them

I don't want to be no mother

I'm still a child

You are supposed to be my role model

But you let me down

When things don't go right in my life

I don't run out and get high

I talk about it maybe pray about it

What type of person would subject their children to so much pain

For some crack

I want to be something in life

Maybe a doctor, a lawyer, or even a psychologist

But one thing I do know for sure

Is I don't want to be you

No more will I cry

No more will I miss out on the things I love to do

Do you hear me? No more

I didn't ask to be brought into this world

And neither did they

It's time for you to step up and take responsibility for us

Daddy, Daddy I'm talking to you

Daddy can we go back to those days Daddy

Those days when you used to pick us up for ice cream

Daddy I want to go to Bring Your Daughter to Work Day

But really Daddy where can you bring me now?

To the corner, I don't think so

Daddy I was told that a man who doesn't cultivate his fields

Should surely die of hunger

What fields have you been cultivating?

How many seeds have you been sowing?

Do you expect to reap a harvest?

Ladies and gentlemen I present to you my Dad the crackhead

COMING SOON.

Real life, true story 

A sister a best friend

Why did your world have to come to a tragic end 

Growing up age 11 and 10 

We were sitting at the playground, we were cool

We were like best friends 

Its not in a million years I thought this day would come 

You would betray and deceive me 

Lowering yourself just to have fun 

You got yourself involved to be labeled someone cool

Believe me when I say it

You're the only one who's getting fooled 

Slowly entering the teen realm you went a distance from me 

You wanted to be surrounded by people 

Who's passion is to drink and smoke weed 

When I try to tell you right 

You still couldn't see

All you wanted to do was be in denial and disagree

Trying to fit in you never had to go that route

Shooting up drugs, hanging with thugs 

Is that what you think life is all about 

It's not a doubt that when I pray 

That someday you'll get in your head 

Because before you know it 

Life will hit you and you'll most likely end up dead 

Passing by dirty neighborhoods

Watching crackheads get arrested by Feds 

You don't want that to be you right 

Come on now you got your whole life ahead 

Don't think its shameful when I tell it

Because when I speak it it's real

Do you have anything to say? 

Just say what you feel 

Everyone needs someone to lean on 

And I'm your best friend 

So with this little act you got going 

You need to stop trying to pretend

Many have turned their back on you

But I always been there 

I've been dedicated and devoted 

My friendship is sincere 

Time is near so I think you better get your life together 

Or else your life will be ended

And you'll spend time in hell forever

Now is not the time to cry or be scared 

Get up and do something

Get yourself out of there

I'll give you a hand to take

But it's only up for you too choose

Will you take another shot at life

Or will you go down with those fools

It's up to you

I'm tired of telling you what to do

You're 22

Lay back and think about how you can unwind

Try to be happy, less stress, give yourself some time

You'll be fine, my words are divine

So think about what I said

And let it flow through your mind

So with all this being said 

Rest in peace Tracey 

I wish I didn't have to write this to you

Now that you're dead....

Lord, look at me, I got the perfect girl of my world

And our relationship is filthy

I’m begging you please for forgiveness

I had a blessing from heaven, now I’m lost in the world of sin

Lord, I don’t know who I be

Hit the girl of the world, put the blame on me

I don’t like to see her cry, I feel the pain inside

I go out and get high all the time

I come back to the place where my love is great

And I raise my hand and strike my love face

I beg her to stay, this is what I say

What I do I promise it will end today

I know I’m a waste of time

What I’m doin I know is a waste of mind

In my world the sun don’t even shine, surrounded by dark and stormy all the time

I walk through the valley of the shadow of death

And the only thing I fear is taking my last breath

I can’t end this prayer with an amen

Get mad at my girl and raise my hand again

Chorus:

Lord Forgive me for all the sins I did

Lord Forgive me for all the Lies I said

Lord forgive me for All the Truth that was hid that my

Soulmate is hurt here held within

Repeat chorus

He said he’s sorry, and that it wouldn’t happen again

So it all end in a hug and a kiss

I Didn’t say anything, keep it to myself hoping that it will all wash away

For Tomorrow will be another day

Soon it has been for it’s that time

To see his face once again

Starts with a high, and turns into a crazy ride

Only because he’s out floatin’ a Cloud nine

The closer he gets, the hotter his breath and that’s when

Things started to get tense

He wanted to do more, things I wasn’t ready for

I see ?, I started to scream, and as I fought to be free

he yelled at me to stop

For soon I can leave

Wishing I was free, I feel my heart beat down to my spleen

As I start to see that I am lost in his story, still wishing he was sorry

Finally the night has come to end, no longer having to defend

Nothing that no longer has a good friend

Lost in his love, originally just lust

For Now I leave these tears of pain, cos I see that shall never be sane

And so, now I live this life in shame, knowing nothing can ever be the same

this make same a chapter in history, and shall forever be lost in his story

Lord forgive him for all the sins he did,

Lord forgive him for all the lies he said,

Lord forgive him for al the truth he has hid

Lord ‘cos I’ve been hurt, help me heal from within

Chorus

and the pain begins, her feelings took an end

You tried to be the bigger one, but still you wasn’t then

All the time that was spent, erasin’ time  ?

And still the negativity continued to blend and I know that you regret,

sorry don’t cut the trouble you put her through,

statin’ the suggestion that there’s only a few like you

but she’s the one you abused, so I guess it’s true

but you attempt to proceed, to keep the sympathy

it’s definitely cursed despite,  you havin your fists bleed

contactin her face, changing her name raped her or because you (agreed)

see how you rearaanged the pain of love

all because of the deed

having her look beautiful, but deadly

colorful but bites back, like coral reef

You don’t have to hurt anymore

You don’t have to cry yourself to sleep anymore

You don’t have to be who they are

You don’t have to do everything you see

Chorus:

All the things you want to do, you better do them

And all the things you want to prove, you better prove them

Show them that you’re strong

Show them you belong

You’re potential is great, don’t let anybody tell you it ain’t

You can be anything you want to be,

But you’re gonna have to believe

You’re feeling like you wanna give up

Feeling like life is too rough, and life is too tough

And you’ve had enough (oh-uh, yeah)

I know people try to break you down

Don’t ever let ‘em get you done

Achieve what you’ll achieve,

believe what you’ll  believe

Just be who you’ll be

Chorus (2x)

She can’t take it from you

He can’t take it from you,

They can’t take it from you

It’s all up to you

It’s all up to you  (yeah)

He can’t take it from you

She can’t take it from you

They can’t take it from you

It’s all up to you

It’s all up to you

Chorus

You don’t have to hurt anymore

You don’t have to cry yourself to sleep anymore

You don’t have to be who they are

4a promise of tomorrow -- Natalie lynn

I want to be seen, I want to be heard

I’m screaming out loud

But you can’t hear the words

That I’m singing to you

You think I’m not speaking truth

Surrounded by strife

There’s more to do in life

Every day I see you, but I just can’t be seen

I’ve always been hoping that this was just a dream

But it’s a nightmare

You’re falling through the air

The smoke is building

Every night it darkens and the lights are on me

I lead by example to try and make them see

This way is better

Oh they he could have a future

Chorus

You’re wasting potential,

you’d be so much more if only you opened your eyes.

No it’s not too late you can still be great,

so step up and win your prize

It’ll stop one day and they’ll hear me say

I’m ready to go places now, they’ll be left behind but

I’m sure that in time we’ll meet up again somehow

But for now it seems

This isn’t more than a dream

But eventually

It’s reality

And I will be seen, yes I will be heard

I’ll scream out loud and you’ll hear the words

That I’m singing to you

You’ll know that this is the truth

There’ll be no more strife

When we know there’s more in life
