Have Been
In this life we only have a hundred years
And to live forever you must leave something here
Like a piece of your heart that's written in some books
About sacrifice that people took for years
Since I can't change history I haven't make a future clear
That God is truly within you my dear in a century
I've seen nothing but fears and tears
Soldiers fighting and dying for masters who can't solve the problems here
So they run away out the atmosphere
Bringing only the rich on spaceship installed with chandeliers
Where else is there to go when there is shit to fix here?
You motherfuckers think you're clever, huh?
You want to leave home instead of making it better
You can't create happiness within each other
You want to look for better, not knowing you have the best
You entitled motherfuckers want to employ people for life
No, bitch, you ain't slaving me twice
To think about it, leave heaven up to us, to the po' kids
You can go to Mars and leave your body to rest there
I have been humanitarian actions
The whole package, no baggage
I have been, bitch, I have been
Through that hell and back again
Ain't nothing to a boss, bitch
I have been humanitarian actions
The whole package, no baggage, bitch
I have been
I have been
What if thoughts do become things
And you're battling with everybody else's dreams
Pushing and pulling between the streams
Everybody disbelieves
And make-believes
I'd be at night chilling with thieves
Drinking with tax collectors
Eating with your public defender
Asking me to come get him
Begging me to come get him
Cause my energy made him fall
30 feet down, almost lost it all
Before that he was ready to ball
Take me to the mall, tell his friends about it all
And pretend he didn't stop the call
Because prosecuting me in court the next day wasn't gonna do the job
Baby, I'm worse than the judge and the mob
I'm worse than your all-time best shooting guard
I'm worse than your one-night-favorite celebrity
I'm worse than your baby mama ruining all your dreams
I'm the one, baby, don't ever mention me
Uh oh
Cause I have been
Humanitarian action
The whole package
No baggage I have been
Bitch I have been
Through that hell and back again
Ain't nothing to a boss bitch
I have been
Humanitarian action
The whole package
No baggage bitch I have been
I have been
Not impossible
I'm a living proof
Of situations you never knew are you looking at me
Because i'm nothing what you used to
(what you're used to)
You don't come close to what i've been through until you live and breathe
Through the valley that i've been through
I've been through
I've been through
You don't just lose jobs around here you lose your minds around here
Your heart breaks real deep around here
You need more than the mob around here
Cops ain't gonna protect you around here
Don't give a fuck about those pigs around, around, around here
And to live forever you must leave something here
Like a piece of your heart that's written in some books
About sacrifice that people took for years
Since I can't change history I haven't make a future clear
That God is truly within you my dear in a century
I've seen nothing but fears and tears
Soldiers fighting and dying for masters who can't solve the problems here
So they run away out the atmosphere
