I never had much, ran with a bad bunch
Little skinny kid sneaking weed in my bag lunch
And all through Junior High we was just getting by
And drive-bys robbed my homies of their young lives
I never did cry and even though I had
Pain in my heart, I was hopeless from the start
They couldn't tell me nothing, they all tried to help me
The marijuana had my mind gone, it wasn't healthy

I travelled places, caught cases, what a ill year
I felt the pain and the rain but I'm still here
Never did like the police let the whole world know
Now I gets no peace ‘cause they chasing me down
And facing me now, what do I do?
These things that a thug goes through
And still I rise so keep ya head up and make ya mind strong
It's a struggle every day but you gotta hold on

Don’t make me sad, don’t make me cry
Sometimes love is not enough
And the road gets tough, I don’t know why
Keep making me laugh, let’s go get high
‘Cause you and I, we were born to die

Sometimes it’s hard to wake up in the morning
Mind full of demons, I don't wanna hear them anymore
Got me heartbroken, fine, so many babies screaming
‘Cause they seeing destruction before they a see human being
So they start smoking weed, we'll never get our day
Until we learn to pray, keep our families in shape
‘Cause they all broken and why do ghetto birds die
Before we learn to fly, some bodies else's child caught in guns

Smoking weed can all make a change
So I'm told but I haven't seen the change unfold
I keep hoping, please if you prefer to breathe
Communities in need of people that will lead
Keep your eyes open, I can only say I'll try until the day I die
Too many of us died to the door to open wide
My brother be wise, stay focused on the prize
Though everybody dies

Don’t make me sad, don’t make me cry
Sometimes love is not enough
And the road gets tough, I don’t know why
Keep making me laugh, let's go get high
The road is long, we carry on
Try to have fun in the meantime

Come and take a walk on the wild side
Let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain
You like your girls insane
Choose your last words, this is the last time
‘Cause you and I, we were born to die
