You live, you die
asking the question
You lose, you win

Threw on, Alice Coltrane,
smoked and sang

The kick slapping at the window glass

My grams used to tell me "Man listen,
don't step into the kitchen"
You muscle your turn,

Throughout setbacks and few glitches
The Big Picture's the focus,
fuckin being hopeless

[Chorus]
Verse 7
the parquet floors
to the fifty foot ceiling
E
Am
I pull the heavy black curtain back,
now revealing
and like it was mine
Verse 8
I felt it
And stood there,
feeling it, getting charged
E

Turn me loose upon the streets,
Out in the world,
up against tremendous odds

in they cards
But my squad remain focus
when we goin for ours
do it for lames or do it for broads

we do it because
It's for the young black gifted mind

Liv ing the story of the most
they dome like a turban

It get s disturbing, feelin alone in the urban
But maintain ya grip for just a little bit

Are destined to grow even after you go
