I've changed over time,
And grew stronger in life,
Won't give up what is mine,
But sometimes even angels fall down.
I've done all this right,
And I've won all these fights,
I grew stronger in life,
but sometimes we break down and fall apart.


Not many people in this world understand what it's like,
To live a life not knowing if you'll make it through the night.
I want peace in my life but I know it won't happen
All the dirt from the past is bound to come back and
Then it's gun clappin all over again
And I always ask myself if this shit will ever end
'Cuz in time all my friends slowly disappeared away
left alone to face life like every single day
and even though I never prayed, I have faith in above
somebody let me live this long to experience love
to experience fame to understand all this pain
to reliease that my music can really make a change
I don't do this for a name, man believe it or not
I took a stand for my people with the strength that I got
and I swear I'll make the top give my all 'tills nothings left
I just do this for my people 'till my very last breath

I've changed over time,
And grew stronger in life,
Won't give up what is mine,
But sometimes even angels fall down.
I've done all this right,
And I've won all these fights,
I grew stronger in life,
but sometimes we break down and fall apart.


So many days I been living tryna make my momma proud
tryna represent my people show the world what I'm about
tryna bring my people out tryna find a way to smile
'cuz my life was filled with stress ever since I was a child
so I promised myself one day I'm standing tall
from the bottom to the top one day I'll have it all
no more having to call my mom and tell her whats wrong
that I'm sitting in the bing and I aint coming home
no more time all alone just thinking how to survive
no more fights with my own especially my own kind
sometimes I think dat we're blind, when we're young we didn't care
when we start to get older those the times that we scared
so now we being prepared trying hard to find a job
didn't know we'd need school so we dropped and just robbed
and now it's to late you gotta work it even harder
the problems that we had have just become larger


I've changed over time,
And grew stronger in life,
Won't give up what is mine,
But sometimes even angels fall down.
I've done all this right,
And I've won all these fights,

but sometimes we break down and fall apart.


see its hard to be a man when you was raised up in the struggle
especially wen you poor with no dad to tell he love you
the pain is almost double, when they say you cant make it
to give it your best but yet still they wont take it
there were times when I fell when I tryed to get up
with nobody by my side to tell me hang and be tough
so I had to play rough, had to do the things that hurt
to survive this lifestyle you had to do your share of dirt
always puttin in work, soon I built myself a name
then along came the rapping and my dreams to take this game
I decided to change, I wanted out no beef and drama
dreamed a life of success where I could show off to my momma
but I understood the rules and every risk that I take
that your enemies stay with every move that you make
so I gotta be awake, I gotta take and see it all
'cuz no matter who you are one day your gonna fall
