Album: The Good Fight
Intro
Lord, You know I don't wanna write this (Write this)
But it's all I can think about (All I can think about)
As soon as I picked up my pen (My pen)
This is what the ink started bleedin' out:
Verse 1
Woke up this mornin', timeline hella thick
Folks like "Biz, did you hear about Connecticut..." ("You hear?")
At the elementary school?" No, I didn't
So I turned the news on, what I saw made me hella sick (Ugh)
A dude ran up in a school, with his tools drawn
Clips flyin', twenty-six lyin' on the school floor (Psh...)
Twenty of 'em kids, homie, picture that
Parents gotta live with the fact they won't get 'em back (Chck)
Shot like 50, but they ain't get to rap
When you're six to seven and you done ate nine, homie, it's a wrap (It's a wrap)
Seein' what we become got me finna snap (Finna snap)
Heaven's home, this hellhole is just where I'm at
Chorus
So many of the things that I see here
Got me feelin' like I don't wanna be here
But I know there's a reason
I'm still breathin' and the Lord's keepin' me here
But I can't just sit back
And watch 'em pass away
When I know, I know, I know, I know
That there's a better way, better way
Verse 2
Lord, help me understand, I won't always understand (Lord)
As long as you a God and I am just a man (Yes)
Who am I to say we should move God's hand? (Uh)
And who is man to have to improve God's plan? (Uh)
They're like "Where is your God?" I'm like "I don't know--
When you kicked Him outta your schools, where'd you tell Him to go? You know?" ("Huh?")
We forget about the Lord when that plane flyin' (Yeah)
But how fast we remember when that plane diving (Yes)
Sick of this place I'm in, we kill thirty-five-
-hunnid children a day and remain silent
Maybe it's late timin', if he would have caught 'em in '05 with
Different tools, we would'a stayed quiet (Abort him)
Maybe he misunderstood ('Stood)
Maybe he thought, what he was doin' was all good (Good)
Maybe what he heard was "school" and "kill 'em in the room" (Heard, school)
When you really said it's cool to kill 'em in the womb
Chorus
So many of the things that I see here
Got me feelin' like I don't wanna be here
But I know there's a reason
I'm still breathin' and the Lord's keepin' me here
But I can't just sit back
And watch 'em pass away
When I know, I know, I know, I know
That there's a better way, better way
