(*Choklate singing*)

[Chorus - 2x]
They say it's nothing in a caterpillar, the day he was gon' be a butterfly
Just let my wings open wide
They say it's nothing in a caterpillar, the day he was gon' be a butterfly
So dear Lord, let me fly

[C-Bo]
I was troubled as a youth, victim to the system
Sipping something 80 proof, with a pistol on a mission
Thinking how long will I last, in this dangerous life
Well they say change your thoughts, it can change your life
Dear Lord, help me focus through this marijuana smoke
So many bodies in the morgue, so many parents on dope
So many kids without a education, destiny or hope
They don't even see they destination, is swinging from a rope
So if I self destruct, will they cry at my funeral
And will all my ugliness, become beautiful
Will it be a ghetto up in heaven, full of heart of all the soldiers
With Pac standing there, saying I told ya
How will I be judged for my sins, all the wrong that I did
From all the negativity, I experienced as a kid
I been disciplined on, trapped in a cell
And most of my whole life, been in hell

[Chorus - 2x]

[C-Bo]
They tell me life's so simple, but we make it so complicated
'Pose to be smooth, but this shit so constipated
Trying to escape reality, but living intoxicated
So hard to focus, when you discombobulated
Streets got a hold on me, foot on my neck
Been a victim to poverty, before I stood on the set
I'm influenced by crime, addicted to grinding
I been searching for success, but I'm blinded
Life is full of miseries and felonies, all hard for me to conquer
I got what it takes, shit I'm just waiting on a sponsor
They tell me have patience, it may take longer
I got faith, but the world full of monsters
That stand at my closet, scared to get out the bed
But if I don't take a step, how the fuck can I get ahead
Lord take me from the pain, but that ain't gon' make it right
I need the strength of my wings, if I'm gonna take a flight

[Chorus - 2x]
