Be A Better Man

I don't understand you muthafuckas anymore

It's like what the fuck you want me to do?

I guess be unhappy right?

It seems like you don't understand

I'm on a mission

Trying to get us out this ghetto land

I seen mom shed tears for years

Trying to open my eyes

And all I did was keep finding ways

To load up my nine

Mama please forgive me

I swear it's hurting my soul

I gotta swallow my pride

Cause you the queen of my throne

I feel alone

Shivering & cold

With no where to go

I just broke up with my girl

I got caught with them hoes

It's been a month I haven't seen my son

I feel like I'm done

I need affection baby girl

That's why I'm searching for love

I close my eyes

Hoping this is just a bad dream

I'm slippin' in to darkness

Jesus come & save me

Tell me it's okay

I know I made mistakes

I wanna go away from this cloudy day

They tell me that I'm hopeless

Trying to break my focus

This hundred dollar deal shit

Tells me they don't know shit

I've been gone a while away from you

And I hope you overstand

That I've got to do what I must do

To be a better man

Cause if I was just to act a fool

Do nothing with myself

Then all my blessings would be cursed

My world would crumble in

It's a joy when I sit down

And think of the good times that we have

And what we do to make it through

When the good turns to the bad

Well I hope you'll find it in your heart

And know these words are true

And please don't fuss

Because I must go do what I must do

Hey baby don't you worry

Even though the road is rocky

I'll be coming home to you again

And if you thought that I was lost

I have to burn my cross

Now I'm free from all these chains

Been gone a while away from you

And I hope you overstand

That I've got to do what I must do

To be a better man

Cause if I was just to act a fool

Do nothing with myself

Then all my blessings would be cursed

My world would crumble in

Danny when you grow up

I'll tell you where I been at

I'll tell you what I been through

I'll tell you where I lived at

Your daddy always loved you

Son your daddy always cared

No matter what your mom says

I'll always be there

From the moment you was born

I always rocked you to sleep

My eyes couldn't believe

You were just like me

I sell drugs

I'ma thug

I come from the gutter

Just an ordinary gangsta

I'ma hood muthafucka

I got a little talent

So my friends mad at me

They hate me low key

When I consider them family

Your hand shake

Ain't really matching your smile

You use to hug me before

But I could give a fuck now

Walking with my head down

Trying to act like it's cool

But my tears keep falling

When I think about you

I just wish you could support my lifestyle

You pushed me away

But girl I'm needing you right now

I've been gone a while away from you

And I hope you overstand

That I've got to do what I must do

To be a better man

Cause if I was just to act a fool

Do nothing with myself

Then all my blessings would be cursed

My world would crumble in

I've been gone a while away from you

And I hope you overstand

That I got to do what I must do

To be a better man
