Today

Let your sins walk away
Let's talk about your darkest day
Bout how your friends went astray (yea)
Now them tears coming down your eyes
Only thing that's left for you to do is to pray
You blame your challenges on your race
Quit with excuses and let's make a better future today

Tell me are you into setting goals
Content with life and content with how your living goes (ugh)
Every night we met a different host
Got evicted - family sleeping in and out of living rooms
What is it like to be a man?
See my daddy took a different road - so time only knows
Once a rose now my heart is froze
Family poor so kids go to school but we switching clothes
What won't kill only makes you bold
Winter coming and it's getting cold
Can't afford a coat
Hat and scarf, a pair of gloves so I can touch the snow
Looked for answers but I learned it's nearly up to you
No hindsight - couldn't see the sight that's up the road
Switched gears although I've reached this slump and Low
Don't get comfortable
Jim called - said success is really up to crow
Hey
Now let's fucking go

Let your sins walk away
Let's talk about your darkest day
Bout how your friends went astray (yea)
No job - can't put no dinner on your plate
No where to live - but you tell yourself things will be ok
Now them tears coming down your eyes
Only thing that's left for you to do is to pray
(Ugh)
You blame your challenges on your race
Quit with excuses let's make a better future today

Have you ever been down and out
Thought time was out
Found yourself trying to drown in doubt
I'm here to tell you be strong - keep it true
We'll be gone if we counted all the times that we've been counted out
So look counter doubt, sprout through a farmer drought
Scout and obtain knowledge to assure that you gone make it out
In dirt roads let's assure that we can pave a route
Plant a seed and work hard so you could see it sprout
Hey let's be straight clear, know your secret safe here
In the hood your work hard, but ain't no body safe there
This shit is bothersome, no dads that really father sons
Love is just a word, only happy when them commas come
And when the money low still find a way to buy a gun
Everybody gotta eat so you know the violence come
Another black man standing right behind the gun
Shit sad - but the white man is proud of him

Let your sins walk away
Let's talk about your darkest day
Bout how your friends went astray (yea)
No job - can't put no dinner on your plate
No where to live - but you tell yourself things will be ok
Now them tears coming down your eyes
Only thing that's left for you to do is to pray
(Ugh)
You blame your challenges on your race
Quit with excuses let's make a better future today
