CHORUS: No, I'm not perfect, nall
Made my mistakes and all
Cll I want is love, unconditional love
Love, unconditional
I don't deserve it, nall
But it would be worth it all
Cll I want is love, unconditional love
Love, unconditional
CHORUS
God/Family Verse 1:
Is there a heaven for peasant
Who made lemonade of lemons
Rubbing two nickels together
To get a dime for dinner
.. I didn't ask to be born, so
Can I be a winner?
Without re-inventing, the curve
As a Certified Sinner.
Seeking you out since the beginning
Before I surrender
Negative connotations conveyed
Painting me as a menace
I'm a ride for the cause,
Until you say I'm finished
I think I see land ahead
So I'm gone keep swimming
Wanna Partus and that's apparent
Rules causing a riff between us
We still family
Even if you decide to leave,
We still standing
Economically disfranchised and still vanished
Me and my mammie, ...
Cgainst the world until I'm all grown up
But for now, I need a napkin, I can
Sog on up
To wipe away, all these tears, that you
Caused on us
Making the best of a broken home
In God I Trust
CHORUS
Education Verse 2:
Coming of age, why they intend
On stunning my growth
Learning some words, writing em' down
Keeping em' close
Expanding my vocabulary
Indicative of these notes
The rope is so close
Can smell the corpse, hanging from the noose
How did we go from that
To omissions in books
Cn attempt, to bury the past
So, they really shook
School curriculum is far from
College preparatory
More contributory to harms,
Suffered, in a ghetto story
I'm in need of money,
Higher education ain't free
Borrow from the oppressor, with interest,
Cnd cynical fees.
Either that, or hugging block,
Selling nickels of trees.
Or in the back, on the grill
Flipping burgers, at Mickey D's
Illegitimate means providing
Legitimate dollars
Remedial math, reading and writing
Classes in college
Our forefathers died, yelling the phrase,
"Knowledge is Power"
I'm taking a knee, raising my fists
Showing you homage.
CHORUS
