Who Am I

(talking)

Yeah, nobody's perfect uh

Who am I

Ain't no commrottery, envy and jealousy dividing me

And rose the killer exposed, the afterworld side of me

Those I probably, confided and lied inside of me

For years, constantly evaluated me improperly

I teach game, like people taught it to me

My personality might not be, what you thought it could be

See it's easy to walk with me, when it's sunny and warm

But how many people gon stay down, through the cold and the storm

Am I perfect, I'll be the first to tell you I ain't

Just because I try to kick knowledge, don't make me a saint

Now who am I, I'm not the man you think you know

I'm trying to get up out the quicksand, 'fore I sink too low

I'm educated by the streets man, I done took my class

Trying to maintain, but the rap game done whooped my ass

The only part of me you know, is what I show you

But internally family and friends, can't even fathom what I go through

Now who am I, only a man just like you

I wrestle with myself, to figure out what I must do

**** knocking on a do', I'm trying to bust right through

So don't put me on no pedestal, I'm just like you

Now who am I, only a man just like you

I'm still struggling, ain't no telling what I just might do

**** knocking on a do', I'm trying to bust right through

So don't put me on no pedestal, I'm just like you

They say it helps to open up, it makes the soul feel good

Soon as you do it, people spread your bidness all through the hood

Living without love made hatred, the main thang that I thought of

And I done did a lot of things in the past, that I ain't proud of

I don't give women the respect, they deserve

I never hit one with my hands, but I've abused em with words

Many days I would, write lyrics to raise my hood

But I'm certain that my bad side, outweighs my good

I'm getting so tired of thinking, till my mind won't run

I'm getting tired of people telling me, that my time gon come

Maybe I suffer, cause of temptation I never resisted

Maybe my time already came, and I ain't know it and missed it

It ain't wise to share your dreams, with everybody know why

Cause even close friends, will wish negative thoughts in the sky

And when I see a arrogant hoe, I squeeze his lid

I run with the thugs and the sinners, like Jesus did

Now who am I, only a man just like you

I wrestle with myself, to figure out what I must do

**** knocking on a do', I'm trying to bust right through

So don't put me on no pedestal, I'm just like you

Now who am I, only a man just like you

I'm still struggling, ain't no telling what I just might do

**** knocking on a do', I'm trying to bust right through

So don't put me on no pedestal, I'm just like you

God gives heaven to me, and other than he there never will be

One who can definitely say he knows who I am, better than me

Two things take place, when struggling starts

It either brings you closer together, or further apart

If I leave nothing behind, after the graveyard got me

Y'all gon mourn two or three weeks, then forget all about me

You out of sight you out of mind, once your heartbeat quit

And you can never be remembered, if you ain't did ****

Give you my last if I got it, ain't no greed in my bones

Last of my bloodline, I never had a seed of my own

I feel depression, cause it wasn't my intention to see

The next generation be born, with no extension of me

But hopefully, I can keep living on this earth through

The parts of my life that I write down, and give birth to

I ain't fraud but see, being right is hard to be

Excuse my evil side, just focus on the God in me

Now who am I, only a man just like you

I chase money, ain't no telling what I just might be

I get aggravated commit sins, and lust like you

So don't put me on no pedestal, I'm just like you

Now who am I, only a man just like you

I wrestle with myself, to figure out what I must do

**** knocking on a do', I'm trying to bust right through

So don't put me on no pedestal, I'm just like you

(talking)

Yeah homie, I'm working on myself

Just like you working on yourself man, you know

We gotta minister to eachother man, and try to pull eachother up

So uh when you see me, don't look at me as being no better than you are man

Cause it might be something that you can give me, that I don't have

So remember I'm just like you, yeah feel that
