Fitz' spoken word

So I'm a failure huh?

You look surprised that I made 21

with all the odds against me

moms wasn't with me

she act' like Saddam sent me.

a terrorist in mom dukes eyes

at 6 got tired of mom dukes lies

Tired of the motherless nights

Me and my folks cuddled up tight up under the candle light

This can't be right

lookin' back i see it in black and white

like she had a bag of pipes

To gone to make the sacrifice to get her life right

And you wanna question mine site.

Wit' out first steppin' inside the mind of a child, running wild with no reason to smile.

Foul. Pat, can I buy a Vial?

Naw, she'd rather spend her time in bars while me and my brother lick peanut butter jars

No shoes, feet blacker than tar

no rules, surprise' we aint worse than we are.

So foolish i used to wish upon a star, praying that she change.

but naw she'll stay the same.

My young mind not knowin' that the drug had already altered her brain.

23 years in, shit that's enough to retire at most jobs. but not the streets.

See, once you enter you can't leave. its like bein' locked inside with no keys.

a piano with no keys.

Took a while for me to believe that the shit was disease.

eatin' on the mind of those that are weak.

but you still find time to fault me, please.
