i was at the gas station when a man walked past
with a sign: "will work for food, clothes or cash"
and he asked if he could pump my gas so i let him
clean the windshield and throw out the trash so i let him
hey i even asked the brotha his name,
where he was from, got kids, man, and what's they ages
he kinda stared for a second he kinda looked surprised
that anyone would even take an interest in his life
he said young brotha there the only words
I've heard in the last year wasn't "no" or "get the f*ck away from here"
how could something so simple as general conversation
Mean much more than general conversation?
hey you could tell life had beaten him down
like he was in the title fight, and this might be his last round
sometimes the easiest things we take for granted
until theyre gone and realized we even had it
for real, for real, for real

(ha-haha-ha-ha)

i used to think that life had a plan for me
until i realized life had to be planned by me
see thats the key
i only deal with what i can see
cuz over history
mystery brought us nothing but misery
there are more people that died
in the name of the lord
that in any natural disaster, diesease or gang wars
before guns there was swords
and they was killing eachother
aint much changed to this day we still killing each other
killing our brothers while another mother cries for help
man we need to help a brother find himself
feed'em, light 1 2 3
hey theres something everybrother should see
and thats for real,
and thats for real,
and thats for real

hey ooh ooh ohh
n dey say ooh ooh ohh
(ha-haha-ha-ha)
hey ooh ooh ohh
n dey say ooh ooh ohh
(ha-haha-ha-ha)
