I sit here, tears in my eyes head in my hands
lookin down see a whole pool of red in my hands
from all the strife and the death that these eyes have seen
all the runnin from the hurt, the lies and schemes
who saw what was comin, the devil manifested
see em losin his head another man is bested
seen my sister losin her life, listen today
as she threw a needle in her arm slippin away
so who knew through the odds that I was facin
my sister fucked up my father catchin cases
I lost my mind the hard times fed my fears
and I'm strong but I'm still man enough to shed my tears
I go to church try to pray for life
through day and night, tossed in this fray to fight
they say it's right, but never can my life go on
while I'm sittin wonderin how did my life go wrong
(chorus x2)
sittin on a late night, watchin my life
pass by, ask why cuz I've taken on the fight
the pain comes as my heart crashes from the lies
as I sit and watch my own life flash before my eyes
where do we go, from the point of no return
the life lessons that a nigga gotta know to learn
as you struggle never fumble will you crash and burn
when it's your time to fight or you last your turn
cuz it's all about the past and the present
to establish ya presence, will you make it and master the essence
or will life treat ya ass as a lesson
cuz I realize lookin through my eyes that this rap is a blessin
but anytime, our breath can be robbed in the blink
of an eye do or die, through the fog at the brink
when you reach your desire, you're faced with a choice
keep goin' or just stop there, where is ya voice
as i sit here my eyes moist watchin my life
like a video it feel surreal, but who's right
is it the person that will tell you you're destined to fail
or the one who say they love you and the best will prevail
(chorus x2)
sittin on a late night, watchin my life
pass by, ask why...cuz I've taken on the fight
the pain comes as my heart crashes from the lies
as I sit and watch my own life flash before my eyes
I'm at the crest, lookin down, dyin to see
if it was right or if God was just lyin to me
I'm thinkin how can I face this, allow me to say this
he will give me what I need if I bow to his graces
but it's crazy, look at me, this an example
of how people say they love me but the dissin is ample
I feel pain and anger, each from the doubt
how can my head stay up when there's no heat in the house
becuz it's cold outside, they said the back us they lied
turn their backs when they see us wearin jackets inside
stomach hurtin cuz there ain't no food in the crib
I'm gettin mad cuz I just can't do it like this
mom stressed out, can't take the hate from her girls
so for her sake, I stood, took the weight of the world
as you listen to this anecdote reveal my shame
I gotta ask, as you listen do you feel my pain, huh
(chorus x2)
sittin on a late night, watchin my life
pass by, ask why...cuz I've taken on the fight
the pain comes as my heart crashes from the lies
as I sit and watch my own life flash before my eyes
