I've got shit I wanna share with you
Couple things explain the reasons why I can't be there with you
Back in the day we both thought we'd never split past
Didn't see no definite ending to the madness and the lustNever thought I'd be packing and jacking for something more solid
I ain't changed I just found a better way to steal my knowledge
Running around hyper criminal had me locked for a while
The studio gave me a lot, more creative styleTook me to another world beyond that estate
Some kind of haven from the beef and some of the stress mate
I wouldn't call it no escape, the roads are in my heart
Making it that more difficult for me to climb the chartBut it's the sacrifice I make, it's all good star
Same reason I ain't always in the hood star
I do my thing you know, I'm grafting like I always was
It just ain't quite like it was simply 'causeThere's a world outside of the manor and I want you to see it
I can see, I can see it, I can see it
There's a world outside of the ends and I want you to see it
I can see, I can see it, I can see itThere's a world outside of the hood and I want you to see it
I can see, I can see it, I can see it
There's a world outside of the ghetto and I want you to see it
I can see, I can see it, I can see itMoney, cars, guns, women melts my desire
I'm gonna stay red blooded till I expire
Not caught up in the hype, I'm caught up in the scheme of things
Seen a couple figures but I still dream of thingsLike the kinda shit money can't connect me with
Unconditional love, I won't regret to give
I'm young, black, rich and ruthless, I swear star
Still if you need a helping hand, you know I'm there starI'm from the street, you're from the street, we all done dirt
Now it's time to flip the script, fuck the suffering and the hurt
'Cause I've seen the bigger picture, it's all good
There really is a world outside of the hoodThere's a world outside of the manor and I want you to see it
I can see, I can see it, I can see it
There's a world outside of the ends and I want you to see it
I can see, I can see it, I can see itThere's a world outside of the hood and I want you to see it
I can see, I can see it, I can see it
There's a world outside of the ghetto and I want you to see it
