At least when I sleep
I can envision dreams
With my eyes tightly closed
It suppresses the screams
It takes me away
From these
Hustler and fiends
These liars and thieves
These devilish streets
But I pray "Dear Lord, remember my name"
I'm forever grateful
For this air in my lungs
This dirty blood in my veins
I just pray
That i'm saved of a fate of which one came
There must be some reward
For all of this pain
The kush i'm smoking on
Helps numb the brain
Helps me to stay normal
In this world that is strange
This ain't who I wanna be
It's just what I became
Trying to hold on to loose ends
Just trying maintain
If I could do it all over
I'd do it all the same
This life is too short
To dwell on shit that can't be changed
I was thrown in head first
Marked with a gift and a curse
Trying my best
Not to get covered with dirt
But reality hurts
And these pretty girls flirt
But I know the difference between playtime and work
So when I open my eyes
And awake from this dream
I pray your angels are watching me
And they guide my feet
And these dreams, you cant take em'
They belong to me
You can't hold me back
Let me go
Let me free
You've seen where I been
Look, where I'm bout to be
Don't ever settle for less
Always push to achieve
