It’s been too hard living
But a change gonna come
What’s keeping me from being someone?

I dare to dream (my spirits)
The positive things about me
Some people don’t see
They just think of me being a thug who gets off
Hurting people’s feelings and dreams

As a human being myself (I hurt)
My thought process gets crushed
Things in my short life time been messed up
No role model around for me to look up to in the physical form
Just another Tupac CD or DVD to learn history from

Born 9-23-90
That was the day momma told me to
Be something in life
It’s already in God’s plan
All I have to do is place myself in the right places
Then, the world can be
In the palm of my hand.
