[00:11.00]
[00:12.06]He never liked classes\/ he was always a social cat\/
[00:15.39]The cutest kittens forever where he at\/
[00:17.44]The rudest men held positions at the flat\/
[00:19.43]Momma loved him\/ but momma wanna man to help assist with this boy\/
[00:22.43]This boy this swing and a miss\/
[00:24.14]Bright eyed beautiful lips plumped with lies\/
[00:26.20]Ma stumped and crying\/ but he dont ever ask why\/
[00:28.69]Just kisses ma goodbye\/ zips his jacket up and goodnight\/
[00:31.83]Skateboard or bike\/ (like peace)\/
[00:32.96]Im out of category x4
[00:37.25](you know why)\/
[00:38.11]Cause he dislike the strife so avoids it\/
[00:40.01]Dont trust teachers\/ cause they dont trust him\/
[00:41.53]Dont trust motives\/ so he dont trust friends\/
[00:44.30]He cant tell if most other people cold\/ or just dont trust black skin\/
[00:47.06]Displaced the race card shuffled\/
[00:49.80]The spade ace into a place\/ where cards stayed blank\/
[00:52.35]And not to say without a face\/ more like a lack of color\/
[00:55.01]Not really to certain how to go about a brother\/
[00:57.16]It wasnt always like that though\/
[00:58.99]But momma moved him out the gutter to the curb\/
[01:01.09]so he wouldnt wash away\/
[01:02.41]He didnt seem to get that though\/
[01:04.01]and momma wasnt really pullin in that butter
[01:05.99]So his bread came another way\/ and he couldnt have nice things\/
[01:08.47]Fuck em he didnt even want em\/
[01:10.89]if he needed em he found a way to got em\/
[01:12.47]Since everybody doubt em\/ he happily obliged to bide his time\/
[01:14.91]And find his little piece of peace\/ at the bottom\/ like fuck yall
[01:17.41]Im out of category x8
[01:27.48]He build his self-esteem up off some tricks\/
[01:29.22]Cause even when he matched as far as skin with kids it seemed they didnt mix\/
[01:32.51](And) there seemed to be disdain from the kids that clashed colors with him\/
[01:34.99]Rebel yelling girls trying to make they daddy pissed\/
[01:37.48]So aint nobody on his buddy list\/
[01:39.55]Cause they would probably give him business\/
[01:41.16]about the shitty sweater he lives in\/
[01:42.51]So he surrounds himself with hope to touch a throne\/
[01:44.96]And other people feeling all alone\/
[01:46.46]Hold your heart\/
[01:47.84]Im out of category x4
[01:52.11]He found punk rock the first time that\/
[01:54.44]He rode either the nine or eleven bus line it slips the mind\/
[01:56.79]But they way they didnt need to fit in\/
[01:58.93]He asked if he could pull the bell and said\/ mom I wanna be like them\/
[02:02.17]Found his kin\/ brothers at school thinking he trying to\/ rewrite skin\/
[02:05.04]Other are fools never seem some\/ shit like him\/
[02:07.31]So far hes been a bitter boy\/
[02:09.23]Living like litter no choice no quieter so cue the noise\/
[02:12.01]Aint nothing like a\/ Mohawk\/ to show off\/ your fuck off\/
[02:14.50]And kick off\/ the Reeboks\/ for boots\/
[02:16.05]To keep the block off you\/
[02:16.85]But he could\/ see how\/ the re-route\/ of style\/
[02:19.60]made the eye brows raise, (but)\/
[02:20.89]Not for nothing wasnt changing you\/
[02:22.41]Hed seen his daddy with a pipe\/ too young to understand\/
[02:24.98]Life aint coming from this man holding hands\/ with him\/
[02:27.54]He probably didnt meant to hit him\/
[02:28.85]he probably didnt even mean to plant his seed\/
[02:31.29]Is my picture in his wallet with him?\/ hes thinking probably not\/
[02:34.46]And even so its probably rolled up with some coke in it\/
[02:36.92]Old and out of focus so nope\/ the road they chose was not his\/
[02:39.71]Nobody will ever be like him\/ hold your heart
