Axiom / My Gawd

Be, I just want to be Want to be my best of self I can And keep myself intact so breathe Forget sometimes that this all the time that we have So laugh and make it last 'Cause laughter comes for free And I just want to go Where my hopes and my dreams can live And seed and help my niggas eat So come, (Come) Come with me And we'll find our way Somehow, someway I pray each, every day That's faith I keep That faith I keep (keep) That's faith I keep That's faith I keep Be, I just want to be Want to be my best of self I can And keep myself intact so breathe Forget sometimes that this all the time that we have So laugh and make it last 'Cause laughter comes for free And I just want to go Where my hopes and my dreams can live And seed and help my niggas eat So come, (Come) Come with me And we'll find our way Somehow, someway I pray each, every day That's faith I keep That's faith I keep (keep) That's faith I keep That's faith I keep [My Gawd] Pain is when you ain't had nothin' to eat today Same old clothes you got on for four, five days Pain is when you ain't got nowhere to go Knockin at your family door you know they inside But they just lookin' through the peephole Pain is when you ain't seen ya momma in years And you can't do shit but shed tears But see nigga if I get rich tomorrow on crip cuh I promise I'll be the same Aye be fuckin with the real See the real don't know how to change They got all this money but they don't know about pain They'll sign they whole life over just for a little change But see me and my brother trynna cook a meal up so I can eat Stomach touching my back nigga cuz I ain't ate in weeks Hey the moon shine? Look like it pointing at me Rest of my feet hurtin' by walking down them dark streets Could it be God? If it is he trynna tell me something Like I'm a limelight and I ain't got no business strugglin' To end up like I am now that was my fear I'm 38 now and I'm still quick to shed a tear Aye cuh, it don't cost nothing to be real If you done picked up some shit like this you know how I feel
