The mind of the younger
Hungry for knowledge
Hungry for some change
Hungry for guidance
Coasting this plane and having no one to pilot
Feeling deranged with no visions of rising
I know the pain cause I grew up without it
Remember my mama being disappointed
Cause I didn't know the story
Of slaves that came before me
And notice i said slaves before me
Cause we all still mentally in slavery
Through this system form of controlment
But back to the track
Mama how I'm suppose to face facts
When in school I followed the rules to know they didn't even teach that
I mean we knew about the martin's and the
Malcolms and the Harriets and Rosas
The Frederick Douglas's
That was the most of what we learned
Or maybe cause I was distracted by the actions taken in the hood
I'm sorry that I was so attracted to ratchets and goods
It's gonna be hard to try and recap what I misunderstood
But just know jack is doubling back to re-track what you couldn't teach us

And mama I ain't blaming you
I ain't saying it's your fault
I understand we went through the struggle
You know
You raising three kids by yourself
Back and forth to work, no car
I understand
So I ain't saying it's your fault this song isn't about you
It's just a part of it

My mama worked two jobs
Footing it back and forth
Couldn't afford to put any effort into our course
I understand that we was too poor to have chores
Getting allowances
So I stole candy and sold it to stack up like accountants
My level of skills for streets and books were off balance
Started seeing myself as a crook was the right talent
Pops not in the picture but his figure was demonic
Wanted nothing more but to explore my sisters body privates
Damn
Innocence was torn
Body and souls torched
Mentally scorned, mindset forced
If that nigga was home now i'd turn him corpes
Then I think about my daughter, I ain't tryna go to court
Cause i'm her only father, without me she'll be destroyed
I'm building her into a scholar
Something that I can be proud of
Not a lawyer or a doctor but having a business prosper
Cause in this world it's hard to be black and get honored Ain't no liberty
Rebellious black man if I don't die then they'll sentence me
If I take a stand i realize they'll put a end to me
I guess ima die like pacit ain't no fear in me
My quotes full of hope I pray to god that they'll remember me
Won't fold nor won't choke but i'm not what they pretend to be
I'm small with the heart of a giant you can't belittle me
I'm fighting through the troubles for the triumph
I'll get the victory, yeah
