Suspended in time
I'm standing in place
A knife in my back
They smile in my face
A cross on my back
And a gun on my waist
Fuck em all
Fuck em all
I swear that I mean it
40 lashes on my back
And I still ain't yo nigga
40 caliber barking
It make sparks in the night
I hit the city for business
And take off in a flight
It's first class or
My ass ain't going nowhere
If being fly was a crime
They'd give me the chair
I've been talking with God
And he talk to me back
I seen the light
And now I know
Where I'm supposed to be at
Whatever rich look like
Well I'm supposed to be that
Standing tall through it all
I see through the fog
I'm getting closer to the Sun
And they want me to fall
I'm getting higher
Lord Messiah
You listen I call
Suffer my wrath
A labor of love
I pray for salvation
The stars up above
I'm floating on air
I'm rolling on dubs
I'm pouring this syrup
It's slowing my blood
I lost my mind
Out there looking for truth
Tried to lose my heart
But that's harder to do
Searching for the time
But that's harder to find
The wickedness I seen
Would make a cherubim cry
When I was a baby
My crib was a caddy
Cruising the street
Rest in peace to my daddy
The shadow
Of death
Yeah I live in the valley
Came from the pavement
The gutters and alleys
I said goodbye
To the person I was
Changing everyday
To a person I love
See the light from the ice
Makes it harder to see
The shadows in the dark
Always following me
