Father
My wings are clipped
See the steps that made me trip
Now I'm so lonely
Mother
Time's frozen flame
Seem to linger in the rain
Holding me only
Like a river I'm flowing
And there's no way of knowing
If I'm coming or going
I need something to chain me down
But it don't matter
My eyes have seen...
For better
Out of blue comes green
Mother
I have gone wrong
Work my fingers to the bone
All I've been doing
Father
Proud that I am
To be born into such hands
Your love so renewing
And I know I can lose it<

Watching the twilight
I saw it flicker
Feel that I might as well give up and go
On the horizon
Are distant reminders
Twilight is the only love I know
Shadows dissolving
No good me trying
I always find it hard to leave and let go
I knew that you loved me
Guess I was mistaken
Twilight is the only love I know

I'm visualizing studios with forty eight tracks
Ghettos and hoods and economies and cutbacks
Riase your guns up high if your fearing debt
Fuck the police they smoke them like a cigarette
Must have been a fucking organ donor
Because they left him in the projects to die with his eyes open
Oh god don't take my only dog
But them niggas drove up like a fucking hog
Some chase, a nigga ran him through the hood
Eighteen shots left my homie in some pine wood
Another end in dope game battle with a gat
Rat-a-ta

Let me tell you 'bout a lady that I know
Who stood tall and proud beside me
Down many a dead end road
Never asking more than I could give
And never once complaining
About the way we had to live
Well she never showed a sign of losing hope
Though a million dreams and promises
Have all gone up in smoke
She hides her disappointment out of love
And if I laid the whole world at her feet
It wouldn't be enough
She's the rock I lean on through it all
Everytime I stumble
Everytime I fall
And though she's never shown i
