Let Death not be the only time
Blood is thicker than water
No lawyers, had them when I was a teen
I knew I couldn't afford them
Cause I'll do anything for em
I'll probably even rob a bank
Don't act like your shit don't stank
You did the same things that I did
You were just shooting blanks
I don't know what kind of picture you paint
But I'll never be something I ain't, I can't
Be like that, cause I be ain't built like that
My foundation's black it don't crack
Family is always First and not last
cnything other than that is of the past
You mess around with any of mine
I'll put my name on it like an autograph
Let Death not be the only time
Isn't always an easy thing
cnd things that come easy
I wish it was a piece of cake
But there's nothing sweet about it
Family First is not just a saying
You gotta learn to be about it
If you don't know read about it
Go to college get the knowledge
My absence may appear like I forgot it
But I haven't, dad had some bad habits
That turned me upside down to a
Manic depressive drug attack
I swear on my kids I'll never go back at it
I know what I did and I ain't proud of it
I'm surprise I'm still alive I thank God for it Matter of fact I thank God
cll the goodness he brings
Don't make me take you to church
Let Death not be the only time
