Hold up, stop ma, let me get a look at 'cha,
Damn girl, I ain’t seen you since prom,
Come to think about it, I can’t believe it's been that long,
I heard your man locked down, now how long he gone? ...Oh dat long?
How the hell'd he get time like that?
Three strikes with possession, aw he ain’t comin back,
He left you with two kids and bills all around,
Plus you found out he had another chick 'cross town,
It’s always the darkest right before the sun rises,
And you gotta stay strong, for the kids in they eyes and
Please don’t despise and go against all brothers and
have a hatred in your heart and take it out on another,
I hate to sound Tupac-ish lil' moma, but +Keep Ya Head Up+
But you gon’ make it, I promise - you keep your head up
And that, that don’t kill you only makes you stronger
And the will to succeed will only feed the hunger, Fo’ Reel (Fo’ Reel, Fo’ Reel)

I was at the gas station and a man walked past
With his sign 'will work for food, clothes or cash'
And he asked if he could pump my gas, so I let him
Clean the windshield and throw out the trash, so I let him (Hey)
I even asked a brother his name, where he was from, got kids man and what’s they ages
He kinda stuttered for a second, he kinda looked surprised that anyone would even take an
interest in his life
He said 'young brother dem the only wurrds, I done hurrd in the last yurr that wasn’t low
or get the fuck away from herrre
How could somethin so simple as general conversation
Mean much more than general conversation? (Hey)
You could tell life had beaten him down
Like he was in the title fight and this might be his last round
Sometimes the easiest things we take for granted
Until they gone, then realize we even had it, Fo’ Reel (Fo’ Reel, Fo’ Reel)
[Chorus]
Ha ha ha ha ha ohhhhh-ohhh

I used to think that life had a plan for me
Until I realized, life had to be planned by me, see that’s the key,
I only deal with what I can see cause over history, mystery brought us nottin but misery
Man mo' people done died in the name of the Lord
Than in any natural disaster, disease or gangwars
Before guns there was swords, and they was killin eachother
Ain't much changed since the days, we still killin each other
Killin a brother while another mother cries for help
Man! we need to help a brother find himself
Feed him, life, ah-one-twoooo, three
Hey! that’s something e'ry brother should see and that’s Fo’ Reel,
and that’s Fo’ Reel, and that’s Fo’ Reel
