But I sold a few tee's
So I'm eating today
Okay, doing okay
Could probly do better
Came home to a letter, eviction
I know I don't fit your description
A rapper
But me I'm a clearer
They threw all the cheddar
I know, everything the glitter ain't gold
Life is clay
You too busy to mold
Time here is takin' it's toll
We spend all our time without passion
And then we get old
Was told, I should go quit
But none of you see all the letters
I get from these kids
Who hurt from within
And don't wanna live
And tell me my music
Is all that can give them hope
Yeah, all we need it some hope
And they tell me their family's broker than broke
They usin' my music to cope
I been on that boat
Held down by a rope
Held down by a string
Ya'll lookin' for things
I'm lookin' to change the perception
Of people and all of the beautiful things that it brings
