| Say man, yeah you dog |
| How you gon let the world, take you out the game like that man |
| You better step up, and be a man homeboy |
| And girl you ain’t no better, look at ya |
| Laying around, whining and crying bout your situation |
| Looking to everybody for answers |
| You kno who you need to be looking for answers from |
| Feel me on this one here, this for you listen |
| (K.O.:) |
| Ooooh-ooooh-ooooh-oooh (x4) |

| Let’s stop tripping, cause death don’t look good in God’s sight |
| Long as you living you got another chance, to make what ever’s wrong right |
| When you climbed out of your bed, the sun hit you with strong light |
| Sleeping under a bridge out in the cold, now that’s a long night |
| If you ain’t never missed a meal, or had to sleep out on the cut |
| Or went weeks without seeing money, you need to keep your mouth shut |
| Cause folks in wheelchairs, and others laid up in hospital beds |
| And people suffering till they drop dead, without little said |
| I’m trying to live, but even when it’s hard I’m glad to survive |
| You waiting to die to see heaven, when you can have it alive |
| You breathing but you ain’t living, if you ain’t giving no service |
| It’s sad to see somebody check out, without knowing they purpose |
| You saying you suicidal, crying bout your condition |
| Wishing for death until you caught slipping, and placed in position |
| Then you beg for life, cause living in natural inclination |
| Whatever you going through, make the best of the situation and understand |
| (Hook: K.O.) |
| Everyday above the ground, is a beautiful day |
| It don’t matter if life is bringing you down, just be thankful anyway |
| Even when the rain come, or the clouds may be gray |
| Know you can always turn your problems around, if you look to God and pray |
| (K-Rino:) |
| Life is a movie, that concludes with tears and no hand clapping |
| People ain’t scared to die, the thing they fear is how it’ll happen |
| Or where they going, the method of exit you can’t choose it |
| Some don’t appreciate life, until they almost lose it |
| People get burned, and say I’ll never help nobody again |
| That’s a mistake that go to show you, put your faith in men |
| Your blessings don’t come from them, your blessings come from him |
| So do your best to be forgiving, and not so quick to condemn |
| Don’t complain gain your composure, and try to sustain |
| Avoid the horizontal and remain, on a vertical plain |
| You wasn’t born high, so the truth is we don’t need |
| Drugs and liquor just to function, or cigarettes and weed |
| We contaminate our physicals, whenever we use em |
| Getting high disguises problems, only God can remove em |
| Talking about how hard your life is, being spiteful and hateful |
| You ain’t suffered more than Jesus did, so live and be grateful and understand |
| (Hook) |
| (K-Rino:) |
| The grass the trees, the sun the earth |
| The uncountable amounts of breath, that you took since birth |
| The vision, that let’s you distinguish the night from the day |
| The protection from trouble, and guidance from going astray |
| You can overcome anything, in all circumstances |
| Thank whatever name you calling, for multiple chances |
| The hardest thing you’ll ever do in life, no ifs or maybes |
| Is reborn you already did that, you was only a baby |
| Now you grown and got intelligence, revolving in you |
| And bring it down, because you can’t handle a problem or two |
| Come on now pick yourself up, you stronger than that |
| Quitting’s for the weak, we been pushing too long to go back |
| If you a single mama, there’s one thang I wanna tell you |
| Raise your child to be the person, that they father failed to |
| Don’t let emotion get you, happiness is there if you want it |
| The love that you give life, is the love you receive from it understand |
| (Hook) |
| (K.O.:) |
| I know it gets hard sometimes |
| I know I know, it gets hard sometimes |
| But keep God, on your mind |
| Keep him on your mind, keep God on your mind |
| Cause he will elevate you, ooooh-oh |
| And all the things you do, everyday always everyday |
