[Verse 1 – Eric Biddines]
Yesterday was a moment that came soon
I expect to be a blessing, what other way should I prove
That we don't need a picture, develop the focused minds
When [?] envision spitting like man that's a cool design
Smoking on stone, barefooted, no food
[?] clean water flowing for drinking, [?] think of shoes
Was you dreaming its on, you know what song
When you're shot you came home, and the [?] alone
Got a call from a place that you can't reach with a phone
This summation's for the people in the form of a song
Strong bones built walls like a concrete tower
Rained ponytails, fell from the clouds like showers
Broken soul, need a healing, when you're hoping for change
I just notice if you're thinking that's a moment of power
This an elevator, step into the proper direction
I'm the perfect [?] who listen, I'm projecting perception
[Hook – Eric Biddines & Amber Monique][x2]
Y'all don't know that I don't want no problems
Trying to provide me a role model
I done turned a penny to a whole dollar
Mission [?] hoping I'm on full throttle
[Verse 2 – Bun B]
Waking up in the cold world with no heat
BSB, bop it up and down your street
The world we live in is crooked and corrupt
So we got to let the next generation know what's up
We got to give em the game they need to survive
Make sure they don't just exist, but that they thrive
Staying alive, know on days it ain't a given
Got to be aware of the surroundings that you live in
It don't matter who you are or what you're repping
There's some b**by traps laid so watch where you're stepping
See they don't really want us to win, well they really didn't even want to let us in
But keep on striving and keep on hoping
Won't be long before the doors is opened
You can break out of the crazy hood that you left it
Wise words from the OG and EFN, baby
[Hook][x2]
[Verse 3 – Jarren Benton]
Tryna be a role model, so many issues, I down the whole bottle
Used to feel inadequate, f** it, didn't want to see tomorrow
n***as put too much hope in the rock
Kids grow up fatherless, their mama smoking on rocks
Where the role models when we out strolling these blocks
Ain't no rocket scientists, no lawyers or docs
Crackheads, dope boys, single mothers, and cops
They fear for their life, can't cherish any moment they got
That's the mind of a young soldier in these lost communities
His 13th eulogy, where is the opportunities?
Ain't no young dreamers, the reality's a nightmare
We b**h over policies, kids deserve the right care
f** the crooked office of politicians and [?]
Waiting on some leader to reach us, n***a please
Seen some dark clouds, the sky forever blue
Dream big young kings, the role model is you
[Hook][x2]
