MY PERCEPTION

This is it right here Yeah This really what it is I mean There's other ways to explain it but This is my perception I figured a way that I could keep doing what I was doing At a early age without em taking me out If I choose sides then I will be up on the front line Standing up for mine whatever that it's about Thats no doubt Constantly getting stronger from the MidWest culture That I grew up around I Never was a Dboy but I been a soilder Who could smell the aroma of a larger account Tryna get money and not do it illegally But only getting pennies so it harder to make it Only other option is to cut back on my spending So I gatta be relentless when it comes to my savings Gatta have patiences and a whole Lotta faith On a mission to the days of my happy belated Imma get mine in due time As I throw up the deuce To my nigga riding pass on the Daytons This is my Perception Could it be, life that I'm living is for the lessons To pass down a message In a studio session So many questions This is my perception Could it be, the life that we living is for Is finessing Or is it really for the essence Of giving and receiving blessings And physical possessions I'm not a historian but I can make like a DeLorean And take you all back to the future Magz in the Rugar Black mask with the passion of Hoover Nightmares real life Freddie Cougar Somebody gone die Somebody gone have to touch the sky Niggas is pissed off ready to be shooters Another black man gunned down in the streets by the police Now you gatta whole city full of looters Fuck racial injustice niggas fed up Feeling dusted and disgusted Aint gone be no moe discussion We is gone have to confront it With the weapons out in public Down to cause alotta ruckus (You gatta cause alotta ruckus) Once again lets give em all a good reminder What the million man march was Scrutinized and brutalized But open your eyes The Revolution will not be televised This is my Perception Could it be, life that I'm living is for the lessons To pass down a message In a studio session So many questions This is my perception Could it be, the life that we living is for finessing Or is it really for the essence Of giving and receiving blessings. And physical possessions The way I see thangs as the light hits the back of my retina So many questions like Will we ever change Or remain the same Will we ever stick together (Will we ever stick together) Can we never let a storm be the reason of a separation And cause a vendetta Can we get this cheddar Or will you greedy mothafuckas try to take it all And hit me with the Beretta (Hit me with the Beretta) I really don't be worried about it I jus be noticing when nigga acting dirty around me I got some hittas on my team that will burry you cowards And show up to your funeral and give your mother some flowers nigga It should not have to come down to violence But these are my messages Get you a weapon and stay protected And except that Reality is what it be and these are my perceptions Could it be, life that im living is for the lessons To pass down a message In a studio session So many questions This is my perception Could it be, the life that we living is for Is finessing Or is it really for the essence Of giving and receiving blessings And physical possessions I pulls up to the light next to a man begging on the corner I always felt like nigga you better get job Hell nah I aint giving you a quarter (Wont give a bitch a quarter) I'm rolling in a motherfucking benze So a nigga probably think I'm gone support him Then I pulls off and look in my rear view And see a chick in a Ford Escort give him water (Man look) I think about how my auntie Brenda aint even have a car And she still found a way to donate to my neice Who was in a bad accident dealing with her scars I be thinking bout his I think about hers I think about ours I think of how the bars I'm leaving you with Spitting was written with a commitment Enough to get me this far With my perception Could it be, life that I'm living is for the lessons To pass down a message In a studio session So many questions This is my perception Could it be, the life that we living is for Is finessing Or is it really for the essence Of giving and receiving blessings And physical possessions
