Dmx - Where I Wanna Be lyrics

[Chorus: unknown singer {w/ DMX ad libs}] In the darkest days no rain that falls Frees me from the life that calls And all the things I need to find an answer for But in the end I know I'll see the truth in all that I believe I do what I gotta do Cause I know that this, is where I wanna be [DMX] Got a lot to say but don't know who to talk to Step with a purpose, but don't know where to walk to If anything I ever said, ever meant somethin I know because the person I said it to, told me it meant somethin My life has a meanin, my life has a purpose No matter how dark it gets, I knew that it was worth it (what!) fu*k what it looked like on the surface (c'mon!) Seen it all but, not all heard us, like sometimes I was murderous (damn) Can't expect everybody to get what you're doin Can't expect them all to be with what you're doin Don't give a fu*k if a muh'f**er hate me (nope!) What you think it is ain't me, but what's good with you lately? HATE when I sense this sh** Tryin to make sense of this sh**, knowin that it's sensitive sh** n***az so dumb, you don't even censor sh** You said this sh**, so I KNOW you meant the sh** you senseless b*tch! [Chorus] [Big Stan] Born with an addiction to fast livin, with high stakes I race down the highway of life with no brakes Make no apologies for the risks that I take And mannin up to the repercussions that I face No silver spoon, I was raised in a crowded room Rarely seen the sun, faced a lot of gloom I hit the streets too soon before 21 Been on the clock since, and on it 'til I'm done I'm never clockin out, but always lockin in I had a warm heart, lost a lot of friends And losin them made me feel like I was drownin So please forgive the chill I know you feel when you around me Dreamed of livin right, big family, the picket fence Grandkids I would get to share my story with But here I am, livin bio as I stand ground Just hope it doesn't end with shots fired, "Man down!" [Chorus] [DMX] If I could bottle the inspiration, I'd be a billionaire Straight f**in villain yeah, X baby still in here I feel the air, I can smell the d**h in it Y'all be left in it so f** it n***a, step wit it! The walk is easy, the journey ain't worth nothin That's why every day a n***a wanna hurt somethin BUT, make progress, more or less Cause if I can avoid the stress I can avoid the rest (c'mon!) A n***a STAY dealin with the bullsh** daily (damn!) n***az is worse than the b**hes, y'all hear me Straight up, I'm FED UP! (WHAT!) Have you sprayed up and wet up (WHAT!) Now you laid up and won't get up NOW look what the f** you done got yourself into All I did was open the curtains and you jumped out the window That's what s**ers do, just a punk motherf**er you Got a n***a like "Motherf**er OOH!!" [Chorus - 2X] [Outro: DMX] This is all I know [repeat to the end]
