[Verse 1:]

In order to understand the ending, first you gotta start from the very beginning

Of my story, I know it ain't all fame and glory

But I lived it

And with all the things that happened, I should be so hateful and unhappy

But that ain't got a damn thing to do with you, so I ain't gotta put that weight on you



[Pre-chorus:]

And I can't understand how a man could look at his woman and wanna throw hands

And I can't understand why they wanna wish death upon me, I'm still struggling

And I can't understand why so many mommas gotta raise a man on their own

Cause where I'm from this ain't the way God intended it to be done



[Chorus:]

Why do they always got me under attack

Where they do that at

Look at the sky asking God why so much pain on me

How you gon take my love and don't give none back

Where they do that at

Where they do that at



[Verse 2:]

Lord knows, I did some things that I wasn't supposed to be doing

But I had to, to keep on living

What's yo excuse, I mean really

Cause you wanna ride through the hood on twenty-fours

Good woman at home but ya chasin video hoes

Talkin bout how real you are, but ain't no real man

Like my granddad n nem



[Pre-chorus:]

See you the kind of man that can look at his woman and wanna throw hands

And I can't understand how they wanna wish death upon me, I'm still struggling

And I can't understand why I got to raise my son on my own

Cause where I'm from this ain't the way God intended it to be done



[Bridge:]

This might be to real for the radio

But I still wanted you to know

We ain't doin what we was put here for

And I ain't sayin I'm perfect

But what ya'll doin people don't deserve

So girl grab your hand

Girl look at your man

If you understand what I'm saying
