feat. Cee-Lo

[Cee-Lo]

Allow me.. to break it down.. ah yea yea yea yea yeahh..

Life.. {*humming*}



[Pos]

This is dedicated to all my folks

Diagnosed with a bad case of that proper upbringin

And never took the time to fall in line or follow

or swallow the thoughts

Of the recognized committees who lurk throughout ya cities

Ya hood, ya town, no matter which type

You from the same type of people try to hold you down

Just because you tailor made for bigger and better things

Never missed a chance to move ahead of things

And what does it bring? I tell you for me

it brought jealousy in backrooms from all the stabbin

Cats posin as my fan just to get grabbin what's mine

I'm livin in times where my daughters are found around

kids who can't afford thinkin caps

But always found drinkin raps and eatin off beats

Claimin laws of the streets - but who made the laws?

Everybody playin Rebel with no sign of a Cause



[Chorus: Cee-Lo]

Well I, feel the world around me

I've found, that others, will bring you down, just to be down

You've got to make up your mind, where you wanna be

Where you wanna go with your life

With your life..



[Pos]

Yo, I'm never singin the blues but findin the clues to maintain

And I been blessed to reign supreme over nearly every dream

I had, and I made it come true

I'm an imperfect man and I'm holdin the clue

to perfection, it doesn't seem to matter what direction I look

I find people settin traps

Tryin to find the goal - without havin any maps

Even friends of mine, jumped on line, just to become my adversary

They felt they were entitled to the dairy I made

They don't come to chill or behave



And they got, toast ready to burn-aca
