[00:04.60]Only God can judge me now
[00:06.21]Nobody else (nobody else)
[00:07.80]All you other mother****ers get out my business (really)
[00:10.22]Only God can judge me now
[00:11.07]Perhaps I was blind to the facts, stabbed in the back
[00:13.97]I couldn't trust my own homies, just a bunch of dirty rats
[00:16.67]Will I succeed? Paranoid from the shit
[00:19.56]And hocus pocus, I try to focus, but I can't see
[00:22.32]And in my mind I'm a blind man doin' time
[00:24.93]Look to my future, ‘cause my past is all behind me
[00:27.91]Is it a crime to fight for what is mine?
[00:30.43]Everybody's dyin', tell me what's the use of tryin'
[00:32.78]I've been trapped since birth, cautious ‘cause I'm cursed
[00:35.65]And fantasies of my family in a hearse
[00:38.25]And they say it's the White man I should fear
[00:40.88]But it's my own kind doin' all the killin' here
[00:43.56]I can't lie, ain't no love for the other side
[00:46.18]Jealousy inside, make 'em wish I died
[00:49.07]Oh my Lord, tell me what I'm livin' for
[00:51.51]Everybody's droppin', got me knockin' on Heaven's door
[00:54.31]And all my memories of seein' brothers bleed
[00:56.99]And everybody grieves, but still nobody sees
[00:59.60]Recollect your thoughts, don't get caught up in the mix
[01:01.93]‘Cause the media is full of dirty tricks
[01:03.91]Only God can judge me

[01:31.23]Still I can't breathe, something's evil in my IV
[01:33.85]‘Cause everytime I breathe I think they killin' me
[01:36.86]I'm havin' nightmares, homicidal fantasies
[01:39.54]I wake up stranglin', tangled in my bed sheets
[01:42.22]I call the nurse ‘cause it hurts to reminisce
[01:44.76]How did it come to this? I wish they didn't miss
[01:47.51]Somebody help me, tell me where to go from here
[01:50.10]‘Cause even thugs cry, but do the Lord care?
[01:52.87]Try to remember but it hurts
[01:54.47]I'm walkin' through the cemetery, talkin' to the dirt
[01:57.52]I'd rather die like a man than live like a coward
[02:00.48]There's a ghetto up in Heaven and it's ours
[02:02.48]"Black Power!" is what we scream
[02:04.47]As we dream in a paranoid state
[02:06.55]And our fate is a lifetime of hate
[02:08.48]Dear Mama, can you save me? And **** peace
[02:11.14]‘Cause the streets got our babies, we gotta eat
