Dear god how can I explain myself
Oh god bless me indeed
When I'm so confused
Enlarge my territory
Place your love and protection over me at all times
Help me
Keep me away from evil
Somebody answer me
Allow me not to cause pain
Police in the background screaming put the thing down
That's how hard I was trying to put my thing down
Si-rens ringing out old ladies screaming out
All this attention for me and I'm barely sixteen now
It's feeling like a dream now
Handcuffed roughed up I'm tossed in the bing now
I'm lying next to fiends now that's the end of the story
Let me bring y'all ****** back to the very first scene now
December 4th a child is born
Before I knew it had my pops trousers on
That's how we do it when the man of the house is gone
You either stand or fall I chose to stand
The hawk outside so I blow my hand
It's a cold cold world but I overstand
Trying to stay focused but I feel hopeless damn
Can't cope with being broke I'm a man come on
Son don't let these streets get the best of you
I will be right by your side when you going through
Son just don't let it just don't let it
Just don't let it just don't let it
Just don't let it just don't let it
Get the best of you
Late one night I was rolling the streets
Just thinking about what's going on with me and
Trapped in this thug life trying to break free but
This thug life just keeps calling me
I'm living life way too dangerously
I'm drowning in my misery
Looked in the mirror there's my enemy
Cause poppa never was a part of me
Take one step at a time mama said
Sweet memories still remain in my head
All of my life been lied to misled
Voices be like don't you wish you was dead
No ground to place my feet
I feel the fire under me
A way out is all I need
Somebody answer me
Son don't let these streets get the best of you
I will be right by your side when you going through
Son just don't let it
Just don't let it
Just don't let it
Just don't let it
Just don't let it
Just don't let it
Get the best of you
Now the only thing left is more spirit to roam free
Cause ain't no going home for me
It's a cold cold world but I blew my hand
I drew first cause I knew that man
I knew what he would do if I didn't draw first
And I couldn't stand the thought
Of my momma stepping foot inside a church
All I try to do is try to get up out the dirt
Guess he's trying to do the same told me get up out his turf
I wanted to talk to him but that **** never work
We was cut from the same cloth and what was under his shirt was his
Mommas rent his young brother's clothes
My nephew's food and with that I sqooze
And with that I froze
Now my life is frozen in time behind these iron poles
And this story is told for young soldiers
Who never choose the life we chose
Son don't let these streets get the best of you
I will be right by your side when you going through
Son just don't let it
Just don't let it
Just don't let it
Just don't let it
Just don't let it
Just don't let it
Get the best of you
Tears in my eyes as I look up I'm trying to
Hold back my pride but reality is screaming
Gotta get a job cause momma also screaming
Streets are just like drugs and it's like I'm out here fiending
Forget all the hits in the industry cause
Ain't no exceptions in this game for me look
Neither god or my enemies I
Choose god cause he understands this
Young man with a thuggish heart
Whole world in his hands but still torn apart
Like I'm so close but it's still so far
Nightmares of me in a swerving car ohh
No ground to place my feet
My feet
I feel the fire under me
Hey
A way out is all I need
I need
Somebody answer me
Son don't let these streets get the best of you
I will be right by your side when you going through
When you going through
Son just don't let it
Just don't let it
Just don't let it
Just don't let it
Just don't let it
Just don't let it
Get the best of you
