A Man's struggle
A Man's Struggle
A struggle of a man, this is a man's struggle
A man becomes a better man it seems in the midst of trouble
It's seems like survival of the fittest in this crab barrel hustle
We grow up being prostitutes of I trust you, and pimps of I love yous
They shove you, beat you down, and tell you to bottle up hurt
Stereotyped before we even gasp for air at birth
Don't even know my worth, because I never had a model
In the other direction it seems that fathers be full throttle
So theres no one to follow, little men internally wallow
Mommy can't teach him how to be a man so by the world he's swallowed
Feeling so hollow so he fills a soul that's Idle
Players,gangsters,and sports stars, all these false Idols
Worshiping these gods, can turn you into a devil
There power you starve for, so with that they fed you
Telling your vision lies, we think our truth is televised
With hell in our eyes, looking for a heaven kind of high
My brethren I see demise,unless we break this cycle
Busting seeds and leaving leads to a world of trifle
A fatherless boy leads to so much disaster
There is hope from P.O.P.,a God fearing bastard
You see I challenge myself and the sperm donor of me
This Muthaf***n apple has fallen far from that tree
But I'm free of any excuses, because I account for me
I have a free will to be better than what I see
Or what I have seen, yes I love to dream
I strive for legit money and no cons and schemes
Redeemed as men we can be, if we raise our daughters and sons
So they can be a lil more prepared when the struggle comes
Thank God for Jesus, can't depend on NO man
My true father showed me who I really am
Spiritually I'm thriving, the flesh is dieing
Don't know if I'm the best man, but lord I'm trying
Brother its gonna get a lot worse before it's gets better
Let's teach the young soldiers, prepare them for the weather
I seen my mother beat, brother jailed, and my peoples dissection
A revolution starts with that mirror's reflection
Feel a mans struggle, Feel a Man's wrath
Maybe it would be an easier path...
If we stood by our better half?
Love you Mother,
Your struggle is my struggle
P.O.P.
