[Verse 1]
My financial description's the reason why I'm stressing
But buried in riches guarantee that I'll count my blessings
Born in a city of d**h were no future is promised
You only got one life to live now pay it your homage
Give it your best & hope that it doesn't end too quick
Cause jealous n***as k** you over money or a b**h
All of these women only f** with who they thought was rich
So if you got a lil money they don't think you're sh**
I guess I'll cheat d**h since this life ain't fair
Feel like I'll never reach my dreams cause this life's a nightmare
They use to tell me that money's the route of all evil
Maybe that's why when I get it I stunt like I'm Knievel
But for now this part time ain't paying me sh**
That's why I'm in the studio working these night shifts
I hear them say you going hard RuMeal you really want it
That's why I'm working hard until the early morning
Sometimes I feel I don't belong here
[Verse 2]
Everybody speak on how they think the world gon' end
The way i see it that's when GOD gon' let the world begin
A new day for me to be a king, live supreme
Malcolm X mind state living Martin's Dream
I hear them scream 2Pac back, 2Pac Back
Why don't you be yourself?, that might bring hip-hop back
Because it's still alive it never died
It only lost it's drive cause it got tired of lies
There's something you should an*lyze in your mind
This how a man speak when his soul cry
Stereotyped because the color of my f**ing skin
My complexion's the complexity I ain't chose to win
So tell me what's the reason racism is still alive
Is it the same reason Martin Luther had to die?
An eye for an eye, a body for a body
The warriors chant trading war stories
Sometimes I feel I don't belong here
[Verse 3]
I can't recall a moment that I've ever been in love
Just a lust of a life that a n***a lives in a rush
Every girl I ever wanted gave me the cold shoulder
That's why a n***a cold hearted & don't believe in sober
I feel as if I'm dying to live but living to die
If I don't speak from my heart I feel I'm living a lie
Cause all the children aborted ain't get a chance to try
& those who were left as orphans will always wonder why
When I'm feeling low I get high to keep a level head
Pour out some liquor for the loved ones, can't believe you're dead
Couple friends turned on me, I ain't mad at you
Just keep your head up don't let the devil catch you
Any minute can be your last so give your best
This the only life that I live & I live with regret
If I don't give it all I got then I will never make it
My only goal in this life is to be the greatest
Sometimes I feel I don't belong here
