Man my life been going in circles ,

Man I’m loosing my mind with this love shit in this cold world ,

I’m starting to become numb ,

Love is not what you see on the tv screen,

Shit all honestly I can’t tell you shit ,

I be fooled by the words ,

The moments when they their for me ,

The times they wipe my tears ,

Hear my cry ,

Just to trun around & do the same as the last lame ,

This world so cold ,

Everybody talk about loyalty but nobody stand on it ,

Everybody love you until you in the ground ,

Everybody proud of you when you make it out the hood ,

Whole time they doubted you ,

Drag you made up lies to tell their story ,

You be honest ,

You be loyal ,

You be there when they need you ,

Just for them to shit on you ,

Everybody want a good women ,

They don’t know how to treat us ,

Since when my clothes define who iam ,

Since when my color define me ,

Since when me speaking my mind is a crime ,

Why should I hide my truth ,

Why should I wanna be like anybody else,

When god made me who iam ….
