People like me [Dedicated to Haiti 2010] lyrics

„Under construction is the road to success, but you gotta keep going until you run outta breath.” J.K.

Heaven is there a chance that you could come down and open doors to hurting...

People like me?

Alone by myself, nobody is around

I got my head in the sky and my feet on the ground.

Even though we surround by the hate and the slaughter.

I’m trynna keep my head up like I’m drowning under water.

Caught up on the streets, with no shoes on my feet.

Kept a smile on my face, even when I didn’t eat.

Kept a dream in my head, even when I didn’t sleep.

And now I feel blessed, even when I don’t sneeze.

Cause I made out the dark, now I see a lot of gates.

Still trynna find cupid, cause I see a lot of hate.

See life is just a midget (short), and the sky ain’t the limit.

So I shoot for the sun like I am playing for the phoenix.

Despite all the critics, and these dreams I’m chasing.

I am headed to the north like the Great Migration.

Short after all but I’m still standing tall.

Got the world on my back and I’m not gonna fall...

uhmmm... I’m not gonna fall!!!

Stuck in nightmares were the dreams never end!

So I’m down on my knees for the tears that they shed.

Let’s me wanna thank you for the little that I had.

Cause I made it out the slums to cut _

782 Mizari Avenue

I wish you all knew what this boy been through.

I walked every day with my worn out shoes, and I walked every mile just to get to school.

It’s true, it’s reality, life is never simple.

But I gotta keep going, keep rolling like a cripple.

See I’m here for a reason, with my neck brace vision (never looking back)

If HIP HOP is a puzzle, I’m the last piece missing!

Feel it, the pain! from the words that I spoke.

Man I’m trynna bring change even though I am broke.

You can feel my heart like a stethoscope.

Understand the Microphone is my only last Hope...
