When u say "I am" it means you exist
And that you gave yourself the means to resist, despite the scenes in the script
Faced with situations that got me like "aww damn what's this?" 
What a dead beat of dad Uncle Sam is 
Look at his kids
The world's a powder keg, the power hungry became power fed 
Stock market numbers more important than a child's breathe 
Working got us wild stress north east south by south west
Starving watching people eat with they mouth wet 
Meanwhile a single mom at the shelter, abused by her boyfriend 
Her dreams of having a decent life full of love completely frozen 
Homeless teens overdosing, forward motion is stalled 
Gravity plus no momentum means, everything falls 
What you mean? Y'all expect me to sell y'all on a lifestyle 
Of fake opulence, popularity and nice crowds 
Some of my boy ain't make it yo this game ain't sacred 
A painstaking task to see my soul lay there naked 
And just exposed like a stripper on a pole trynna make herself whole
But for the most part dismissed as a hoe
We pigeonholed prisoners of the positions we hold 
Winners write history some stories will never be told 
 
We Wish upon a star it's one nation under god 
But they don't care about the underdogs 
Wish upon a star, it's one nation under god 
They never care about the underdogs 
Unless they win 

Life doesn't come with a map or a g.p.s. app
Whether you a g.d. with a vest or at a dead-end job trap 
A war zone with a dog tag going through a dark patch
Wide awake in the nighttime, watching your thoughts flash 
Crossing paths, some people match, some people don't match 
Other surpass expectations some of these people don't last 
The real ones don't brag, those who talk a lot do the worse 
The universe makes no mistakes I let the vibes do the work 
Some get sick and die, you cannot predict the ride 
Just evict the negative and never end up victimized
In the world in different spots, they praying to different gods 
Liquor shots, delinquents licking shots, dodge them like Baryshnikov 
Mafia types with big cigars reading Khalil Gibran
Trying to balance the karmic debt so he can heal the wrongs
Bottom to apex moments those that define us
Your body could be swimming in dirt and roll out a diamond
And it's a timing... the promises you keep yourself 
You feed the hell or the heaven no joke no D. Chappell 
Sometime your feet rebel even though the mind desires 
Skinned hardened by the shells of standing in the line of fire 
 
We Wish upon a star it's one nation under god 
But they don't care about the underdogs 
Wish upon a star, it's one nation under god 
They never care about the underdogs 
Unless they win
