Interlude: Pedestals

But man, I done been through it all

So I, I said: I wanna tell my story

'Cause I, I never cried or nothing

And that's what, uh, make 'em say uhh, uhh

That's like my pain, that's basically what that is

That's my battle cry

Think about it: None of us are perfect

We live in an imperfect world

You know, only God can judge me, that's how I look at it

The people that's sitting around pointing their fingers

Imagine all the stuff they're probably doing

Whether you're police officers, doctors, lawyers, presidents, whatever

You got good and bad in everything

You know, we're putting people on a pedestal that's just a human like us

You know, I mean, they got more drugs in the rich neighborhoods

Than they got in the hood

A lot of their kids dying from overdose and things like that, think about it

Black kids have to figure it out!

We don't have rehabs to go to

You gotta rehab yourself

But for us, you can't pull a plug on us and tell us it's over

Not me!
