You can only understand it If you come from under the hood and you're still standing I abandoned my hope early when exposed to cope the pain by alcoholic slaves Look This is my escape This is where I break This is family common to be grabbing bottles from cabinets Because the struggles have duplicated and turnt me to a clueless savage I look back my life is fading friends family you name it No help on how do I make it Just a statement carved in pavement uh Hold back my purpose Cause you people think you can purchase hood knowledge through reading a blog But you ain't in it till a bullet breaks your window And the broken glass builds into a ghetto crescendo I know that you can't see Past the picket Fences I know you think you're fancy You've been Born with Second chances I know that you can't see Past the picket Fences I know you think you're fancy You've been Born with Second chances We let them identify the past Once you stole my glasses I'm blind to the present of life and my future identity Knowing a human can't hold the power of imagery Tell me you love Tell me you want me Tell me I'm accepted Tell me you trust me You painted a tainted image of me Now that's what I believe No escaping this leash of brokenness You robbed the confidence in my identity Hold Up You don't paint my picture You ain't the perfect man I read in my scripture Humanly blind but spiritually I see an eternal vision Would you choose healing from mud and saliva Or your pupils missing in a prison Came from the guts of the D Where you gotta bleed for your needs Ain't no sleeping with ease This you get smacked for saving what's left of the grease And where people look to trees for life But the true source is who gives life to the trees I know that you can't see Past the picket Fences I know you think you're fancy You've been Born with Second chances I know that you can't see Past the picket Fences I know you think you're fancy You've been Born with Second chances You look at me Tell me what do you see I'm more than what you think of me You look at me Tell me what do you see I'm more than what you think of me I know that you can't see Past the picket Fences I know you think you're fancy You've been Born with Second chances I know that you can't see Past the picket Fences I know you think you're fancy You've been Born with Second chances You've been Born with Second chances You've been Born with Second chances You've been Born with Second chances
