Matured in a sullen atmosphere suffused with rue and misery
Sin throughout a concrete jungle forsaken by society
Layoff & casualty rates enlarging in drastic numbers
For years, was the setting where I layed my head to slumber
Cash Flow's sluggish since Im inactive in employment
Bills approaching swiftly & my girl is 2 months pregnant
Displeased over refractory lifestyle assigned before me
If things dont change, then I must make alters at my own efficacy
.
.
Sought after dealing as a way to elude my penury
Assaying to reduce asperity from me and my family
Now able to pay requisite to get us situated
Nice extent of remnants, no more concerns of living squalid
Knew dealing was a losing game, constantly inauspicious
Where I reside, to survive, it depends on your riches
Skeptical it'll occur, persisted augmenting my profit
Thought if the game was craftily played, the sky is the limit
.
.....But I Was Wrong.....
.
Supined in my own blood, trembling widly on the pavement
Anxiously awaiting god to rule the verdict of my judgement
Pleading mercy, dont want my girl afflicted with anxiety
Dont want my seed to mature deprived of father exemplary
Foresaw death or confinement was certain to occur
But still ignored & elongated till it taken me under
If this day marked my demise, it was devised in God's plan
Awaiting my verdict as I abjure my soul in your hands *Passes Out*
.
Day Later, Awakes In A Hospital Bed, Then Recites A Prayer
.
Dear God, I'm so thankful my second chance was granted
And I swear in oath to use this chance to my advantage
I'll make the best of this opprotunity as long as im alive
The Sky is the Limit from here, nothing gonna stop my drive
.
.
Amen
