Lyrics

It's a marathon, not a sprint
It's not about who finish first
It's about who finish, period
It's a long journey
The other day I met a brother on the journey
A million miles, still he learnin'
So dignified, he confirmed it
Not givin' out till you earn it
Still alive, steady yearnin'
The fire inside was burnin'
The righteous side was returnin'
Don't fight the tides till you turnin'
Spoke to me of his grief
The incidents with police
His innocence when he flee
The penance for all his greed
Dependin', wishin' for free
Vivid memories of the streets
Half his energy, then he bleed
Gassed him mentally after peace
Chapter 3, said he made up his mind
He gotta climb, lotta time
But a lot turn to little
He spent a lot just gettin' high
He did not call it livin'
See what he got was gettin' by
Made the block his commitment
Got hypnotized with gettin' fly
Though the shots didn't hit him
At any minute he could die
He would chop it then flip it
Made five hundred out of five
You can't knock, you ain't live it
'Cause he was just tryna survive
But he did not foresee prison
Them years he missed them, count 'em, five
And still he would rise
They recognize, it's in his eyes
The rest of 'em jealous
Them other fellas stayed in line
This brother was reckless
Wearin' a vest when he would ride
His mother would tell him
But it got tougher when she died
That one almost fell him
See when it cut, it cut him wide
She gave up her life
To raise him right, she didn't try
He gave up his life
He in the night without a guide
Can't make up what I write
See this is life as a father
Wise or fall, I stand tall wishin' y'all were free
I give it all I got, that means all of me
I wish we all could meet, whether war would be
This for the lost, the weak, wishin' you all were free
Wise or fall, I stand tall wishin' y'all were free
I give it all I got, that means all of me
I wish we all could meet, whether war would be
This for the lost, the weak, wishin' you all were free
State to state, he was schemin'
No escapin' the demons
No mistakes catch you dreamin'
Blow your face and you leanin'
Know the stakes, know the meanin'
So awake, no one pinch him
Go away, you can't reach him
Show the way and don't teach him
He told me his legs tired
He walk with a slight limp
Despite all his trials, child
He still got fight in him
The others ain't like them
Because it ain't like him
A lot of 'em fade out
He tougher, he right here, yeah
State to state, he was schemin'
No escapin' the demons
No mistakes catch you dreamin'
Blow your face and you leanin'
Know the stakes, know the meanin'
So awake, no one pinch him
Go away, you can't reach him
Show the way and don't teach him
