DMX
If everyone else had my eyes
Then, who I am wouldn’t be a surprise
Just because I’m locked up don’t mean I’m fucked up in the game
Just to think the motha dirt they trying to throw on my name
Get arrested – getting arrested don’t make me guilty
But by the time I make it to court
The media dun’ killed me
Gotta good heart but we all do wrong
I really mean well but I’m going too strong
You say I’m rehabilitated, but I still can’t vote
You say I paid my debt but I still can’t vote
Gotta pay taxes but I still can’t vote
Come on dawg yall stay trying to keep a nigga broke
You just as crooked as us, fuck you trying to say
Cause once I pay that dough, the charges go away
Forget about it - It’s ok!
Cause Imma walk over here and let the lord pave my way – Aight

Morrison: Change the life
Choir: That I
Morrison: That I live
Choir: Got me
Morrison: Living five?
Choir: Living
Morrison: Manity?
Choir: Need you
Morrison: Need the thing
Echo: thing
Choir: That is
Morrison: Destroying me
Choir: So I
Morrison: Pray to God
Choir: That it
Morrison: Has mercy
