Verse 1
See, I'm that n***a eating apple jacks, Jay(Jay-z) talked bout
That n***a that was coming for his spot without a doubt
Went from....rags...they dogged em out, to...tags..and flossing out
To say I'm not the sickest, is Ludacris!...Not word of Mouth
Looking back when I was sleeping on my Auntie couch
Who ever thought a decade later, I'd turn my life around?
Nobody it's like,...everybody doubted me
Bet when i'm shining everybody is just so proud of me
I hear lying between ya teeth, I'm real as a Lion's teeth
Maybe it's just the pride in me, I'm tryna let GOD in me
Because I'm lost and no telling who is guiding me
Maybe it's GPS, hell or Satan...I know stress
Trying to do my best, this music is in my flesh
Because my kids the only people I feel like I impress
So I don't play boy, never been the type who heft (Hue Heffner)
The game a marriage till you part, well I'll be choosing d**h
Hook
I'm tryna find possible change
But you always wanna take from me
People take from me, how can I find a way?
I'm tryna find possible change
But they'll never give a break to me (I'm black)
Won't give a break to me, how can I find a way?
Verse 2
Dear lord how can I find a way?
An MC with a hammer too legit to pray
And I been conscious of my wrongs and rights since yesterday
But once you contradict your greatest plights what is their left to say?
Philly calling me the Answer, I'm the second coming
A n***a moving n***as underground, no Harriet Tubman
Sickest it's no discussion, viral can't no one touch him
The type you really love to hate, harder just to love him
It's black jesus, real stories who believe us?
My little homie Nickel screaming ayo Norm we need this!
Another lil homie brought my whole world into to pieces
When he told me Open Book, gave him a fighting reason
[damn], what a blessing...to be a teacher, who learned a lesson
On how to get a message across without just texting
To see you destined, but stressing, with life...what a price
It's good you bringing possible change, but better changing lives
Hook
I'm tryna find possible change
But you always wanna take from me
People take from me, how can I find a way?
I'm tryna find possible change
But they'll never give a break to me (I'm black)
Won't give a break to me, how can I find a way?
Verse 3
You see my, pen or pencil's to the point, my words are proof
Because I, fight to give my people rights(writes) Sojourner Truth
No one can copy my style, you can't predict my moves
Cause I'm the type to line up to shoot, then throw an alley oop
A team player, but an individual oddity
Cause where I'm from...the guns and shooters usually seen commonly
The comedy, a motherf**er saying that he'll body me
That's like the 10th wonder of the world, an I just gotta see
A n***a with an attitude, I'm on that Dre sh**
n***as out here undercover, y'all be on that gay sh**
Rappers they shape shift, young thug's but they take dick
From n***as mean mugging now to n***as with facelifts
Don't say sh**, just peep the rhetoric
AMERICA! land of the free that's irrelevant
A government that will k**, for the hell of it
Ain't sh** free and a dream is how they selling it
Hook
I'm tryna find possible change
But you always wanna take from me
People take from me, how can I find a way?
I'm tryna find possible change
But they'll never give a break to me (I'm black)
Won't give a break to me, how can I find a way?
