Just want to let you know that

Even though things might be going good for you

There’s somebody out there somewhere that’s going through it

We can’t never forget that

Where we learn to recognize it where we see it

Maybe we can stop somebody from goin’ over the edge

Check it

Somewhere, there’s a family living in its house

Two months behind on the rent, about to get kicked out

A homeless man laying in pain under the freeway, sick, tired and weak ‘cause he hasn’t eaten in three days

Somewhere, a child is in school about to clap back because his clothes are old so he gets roasted and laughed at

The innocence of a young girl has been corrupted because she just was molested by somebody she trusted

Somewhere, out there, a scared pregnant girl is about to abort a child that could possibly save the world

It’s a man on the edge now, back against the wall with a pistol to his head getting ready to end it all

Somewhere it’s a dude in his room on a computer, searching for guns, 'bout to be the next mass shooter

A young girl is living happily today but listen

Tomorrow she gon’ be on the news, reported missing

Somewhere

A lot of pain, a lot of problems, a lot of people in the hole

Somewhere

A lot of folks going through it in life, losing control

Somewhere

It’s a hard road, ain’t too many good people left

Somewhere

Don’t let the weight take you down, grab a hold of yourself, man

Somewhere, a woman is in love with a loser

Giving money and sex to a ruthless, abusive user

There’s a young fella running these streets, robbing to get green

Not knowing in a year from now he gon’ be serving fifteen

Somewhere, a black dude’s hanging out this evening

And a white lady’s calling the cops on him for no reason

A deceitful preacher is preaching being evil and leechin’, while speaking deep in the pockets of the people he’s reaching

Somewhere, there’s a person with a broke heart and a hurt mind, influenced easily, about to try dope for the first time

A group of government devils who take greed and step far, or in a room as we speak now planning the next war

Somewhere, somebody’s making moves in the streets

But folks don’t even know he a snitch for the police

It’s a lazy dude, savage as hell, doing some dirt, smashing his wife’s best friend when she go to work

Somewhere

A lot of pain, a lot of problems, a lot of people in the hole

Somewhere

A lot of folks going through it in life, losing control

Somewhere

It’s a hard road, ain’t too many good people left

Somewhere

Don’t let the weight take you down, grab a hold of yourself, man

But on the flip side…

Somewhere, somebody is broke and struggling hard

And they just got a phone call saying they got the job

It’s a woman who been hurt many times to the extreme

And God just blessed her to meet the man of her dreams

Somewhere a doctor told you you wouldn’t survive

That was twenty years ago, the doctor dead, you still alive

Somebody was adopted at birth and mentally suffered, and finally got to meet their biological mother

Now somewhere, a young G done got up out the game, turned his life around, now he helping others do the same

It’s amazing, somebody got pulled over this morning

And the cop ain’t even trip, he let him drive off with a warning

Somewhere, one of these neighborhood ghetto children became a entrepreneur, man, and now he’s worth millions

A proud mother’s out there sheddin’ some happy tears

And it’s a couple celebrating being married for fifty years

Somewhere

A lot of pain, a lot of problems, a lot of people in the hole

Somewhere

A lot of folks going through it in life, losing control

Somewhere

It’s a hard road, ain’t too many good people left

Somewhere

Don’t let the weight take you down, grab a hold of yourself, man
