Lyrics:
[Chorus:] I'd ever stop now, Imma die tryin', I'mma die trying And sometimes I get weak from walking the road I'm on See there's no way and there's no how But I'mma keep on. I'mma die tryin', I'mma die tryin' (mmm..) In fact wasn't something too fly it was something to blame Before we came being southern wasn't something to claim Smilin and juckin and jivin I was so ashamed They gave the dirty an apparently appropriate name Spoke with my spirit and mind my ambition was blind I wrote about a revolution and sung from the soul Answering the call of god like a child obeying But you can't break the hold and not holding your breath Preaching the very same power they killed martin for saying Thought if I died for ya, that would be an honourable death And it's clear my music may not do well up in here Oh my god being a niggaare must be a good payin job So sincere my eyes begin to swell up in tear There is a time and a place for everybody's taste But I know too much and I owe too much With all the fringe benefits, ignorance is bliss [Chorus:] So here it is, an invitation to an open book A painful past my heart is still broken look I know you don't hate me it's not assured they anyone appreciate me In recent news the source couldn't find any microphones to rate me See I've been having a hard time selling my album's lately Using words I could scream an alternative to equate me Which is true I'm in a box with a view would you still wanna date me? I could be a pretty good thug but it wouldn't compare to a great me The final cross to bear is mine it's not a cross to share But isn't it ironic I still woulda bought a cross to wear That obviously cost to wear but considerably less than the price that it costs to care Now I have another loss to spare I doubt em say that I can't win Even though I know talking intelligent just ain't in You most likely to go broke when you just can't bend So me and jj both gon' have to pay bills [Chorus:] People still standin in line at the World Party for some Soul Food Listen They say we like the new 'Lo To get put back in that old mood It's a catch 22 and I couldn't cry And we respect everything that you trying to do 'Lo Do what you do but just do more that you know Now I'm under oath with them both and I couldn't lie But you getting rich talkin shit so why shouldn't I I'm just playing but I guess that couldn't go without saying Cussed 'em said that I'm too dope and I coudln't fly But I ain't gotta lie to ya to make it sound fly to ya I'm just gon ride this revolution until they stop me where I'm stayin I keep my feet on the ground and bring the sky to ya [Chorus:]
