ive changed over time
and grew stronger in life
wont give up what is mine
but sometimes even angels fall down
ive done all this right
and ive won all these fights
i grew stronger in life
but sometimes we break down n fall apart

VERSE 1
not many people in dis world understand what its like
to live a life not knowing if ull make it through the night
i want peace in my life but i kno it wont happen
all the dirt from the past is bound to come back and
then its gun clappin all over agian
n i always ask myself if this shit will ever end
cuz in time all my friends slowly disappeared away
left alone to face life like every single day
n even though i never prayed, i have faith in above
somebody let me live this long to experience love
to experience fame to understand all this pain
to reliease that my music can really make a change
i dont do this for a name, man believe it or not
i took a stand for my people wit da strength dat i got
n i swear ill make the top give my all tills nothings left
i just do dis for my people till my very last breath

CHORUS
ive changed over time
and grew stronger in life
wont give up what is mine
but sometimes even angels fall down
ive done all this right
and ive won all these fights
i grew stronger in life
but sometimes we break down n fall apart

VERSE 2
so many days i been living tryna make my momma proud
tryna represent my people show da world what im about
tryna bring my ppl out tryna find a way to smile
cuz my life was filled wit stress ever since i was a child
so i promised myself one day im standing tall
from the bottom to the top one day ill have it all
no more having to call my mom n tell her wats wrong
that im sittin in the bing n i aint coming home
no more time all alone just thinking how to survive
no more fights wit my own especially my own kind
sometimes i think dat we're blind, wen we're young we didnt care
wen we start to get older those the times that we scared
so now we bein prepared tryin hard to find a job
didnt kno we'd need skool so we dropped n just robbed
n now its to late u gotta work it even harder
da problems dat we had have just become larger

CHORUS
ive changed over time
and grew stronger in life
wont give up what is mine
but sometimes even angels fall down
ive done all this right
and ive won all these fights
i grew stronger in life
but sometimes we break down n fall apart

VERSE 3
see its hard to be a man wen u was raised up in da struggle
especially wen u poor wit no dad to tell he love u
da pain is almost double, wen dey say u cant make it
to give it ur best but yet still dey wont take it
there were times wen i fell wen i tryed to get up
wit nobody by my side to tell me hang n be tough
so i had to play rough, had to do the things that hurt
to survive this lifestyle u had to do ur share of dirt
always puttin in work, soon i built myself a name
den along came da rapping n my dreams to take this game
i decided to change, i wanted out no beef n drama
dreamed a life of success where i could show off to my momma
but i understood the rules n every risk that i take
that ur enemies stay wit every move that u make
so i gotta be awake, i gotta take n see it all
cuz no matter who u are one day u gonna fall

CHORUS
ive changed over time
and grew stronger in life
wont give up what is mine
but sometimes even angels fall down
ive done all this right
and ive won all these fights
i grew stronger in life
but sometimes we break down n fall apart
