Friends & Family

Some call me a loser
Some call me a cheater
Some say I'm a selfish untalented dreamer
Cause all's I try to do is keep my dream alive
But it's so hard to do when your working 9 to 5
I've never been one afraid to die
But I'm afraid to leave behind
The precious life that grows through the sands of time
Cause for my son and daughter
I know they need their father
To help them make it through all of the devious things that people do
Cause every moment counts from the good times to the bad
I don't have time to envy those that got things I've never had
Cause the one thing most important is the one we take for granted
And until your life is on that line I think it's the way god had planned it
To open up your eyes and make you realize
That to some life is money
But what's money without life
Cause all's I need is the air that I breathe
And my friends and family to believe in me

(hook)
As deep as the abyss where the waters run
As deeps as the land of the rising sun
You know I'm down
And even when the odds are against us
It doesn't even matter
Nothing else matters

We bleed the same blood
We cry the same tears
We have the the same fears
We pass the same years
We see the same stars
Under the same skies
We pass the same time
We all live and die
Cause friends and family wash thicker than blood
And if ya never felt love than I feel for you
Cuz lives pass above us in 747's
Deceased dwel below us
Before they go to heaven
Deep like seven leagues life intrigues intelligence
Got no time for clutter, your late if there's hesitance
Put your foot forward and there will be a helping hand
Take a step back and your stuck in the quick sand
Ingesting toxins keeps us locked in, a mental jail trap
2002 where's your family at

(bridge)
Oh, and I might fail
Oh, I might succeed
Whatever the outcome is
Just keep your faith in me
Just believe in me
And I will be there
(repeat hook)
