[Chorus]
All that I am
All that I know (Something for the people)
All that I ever will be and though (Something for the people)
All that I am
All that I know
All that I ever will be and though
[Verse 1]
Out of the mouth of a black man scorned
I see you laughing with swollen eyes
Life beat a mother when you're playing the losing side
Dream deferred (Dream deferred)
Vision's blurred (Vision's blurred)
A hustle served (Hustle served)
And anyone who would listen, respect is earned
A lesson's learned
How many sleepless night's have you
How many?
How many shift the state have you watched it turn it to fade away
While you use all tricks to backtrack (Backtrack, backtrack)
Try to be right and exact
But lack of paper will make a nigga act
Like a nigga, forget that he black
Moms is working two jobs
Pops is worshiping two gods
Yo, hard times at the bar downtown
Wondering what's on God's mind
All that I am
All that I know (Something for the people)
All that I ever will be and though (Something for the people)
All that I am
All that I know
All that I ever will be and though
[Verse 1]
Out of the mouth of a black man scorned
I see you laughing with swollen eyes
Life beat a mother when you're playing the losing side
Dream deferred (Dream deferred)
Vision's blurred (Vision's blurred)
A hustle served (Hustle served)
And anyone who would listen, respect is earned
A lesson's learned
How many sleepless night's have you
How many?
How many shift the state have you watched it turn it to fade away
While you use all tricks to backtrack (Backtrack, backtrack)
Try to be right and exact
But lack of paper will make a nigga act
Like a nigga, forget that he black
Moms is working two jobs
Pops is worshiping two gods
Yo, hard times at the bar downtown
Wondering what's on God's mind
