…give
It's a birds eye view of what I want you to do
Or how to live
And I really don't have to suffer
I still do it anyway
I'm…
…a diamond in the rough
Or I'm a dirt clod in the clay
Guess what
I lost my job
It's just my luck
Reveal you've always been…
…it at all
I've done this so long, its something I oughta know. Sooooooo long
Finally up on the pieces disrupting and the birds fly…

…[Intro Verse]
I won't lie and say the past few years have been easy
Its been a struggle since day one and everyday…
…requires your ear
Even the blind support this craft because they can hear
So whats your excuse homie? Are you deaf?
I can put this…
…is a puzzle of missing pieces
But if we came as one we could piece it up
[PreHook]
I got niggas in the nine
Running for that dollar sign…

…to be hopeful picking up abusive pieces and continue moving forwarded
Even though betrayel was the end I gave him my blessing and que dios lo…
…my own won't be long until im gone
I miss my sanity the ambush you have caused me
Damn you turned me into something I didn't wanna…
…to put emotions to the side
It's harder everyday but I keep on fighting
This is for the homegirls keep on surviving
[Hook: Ms Krazie]

That You're Gone (I'll be alright)
You've been calling me everyday,
Tryin' to say sorry for how you hurt me so bad
But I think…
…you give yourself way too much credit
More than you should ever have
So I been picking up the pieces
Never knew…
…'head and tear up those letters
It must have all just been words
See I can't be the one for you
Only when you need me yeah
So…

On album IX (2014)

…ain't' no game, I had to sell all of my shit
Yeh I'm married to this bitch i got a ring, yeh I commit
Had a job when I…
…was 15 bought all my studio gear
Saving all my pay cheques now I watch this shit all disappear
And I'm lookin' in the mirror like who…
Cuz', Slimmz and I been on this shit, before instagram was thang'
I gotta' remember these days, cuz, they won't be the same again…
…[Hook]
Sometimes the truth hurts but you can't escape the past
Everyday it hurts worse knowing you ran away so fast
This…
…arriba'
The shame
Now that I have rose up and I have became
The big Six W
That very same year, what brought the first tear
I'm sure…
…picking up the pieces and the pick up sticks
You never picked me up so I picked myself up
All your genes inside of me that I feel…

…[Hook: J Prophet]
Let me tell you bout this love that I've been shown
The blessings have been sown
So I be putting on
Say hey
This…
…destroyed
A little faith, this ain't the place where you'll see doubt employed
In my mind incline time to unwind
I remind myself who I…
But overcoming through God's power is where our peace is
We may be broken but we picking up the pieces
Say Hey!

…[Intro: Josh Smith]
Heather, you know who you are...
This one's for you
[Verse 1: Josh Smith]
Jeans, sweatshirt…
Yeah, life falling apart
She picking the pieces up and hoping for a new start
It's dark, she's so scared of being all alone
She's…
…on both knees and wishing
But it's the same thing everyday, repeat it, wash it, and rinse it
HEATHER NICOLE,I want you to know this…

…the image in our heads stayed
Stressed faces pressed to windows, looking for an escape
Seems they underestimate this…
…corner of the Westway
Witnesses to the crime, we fear a whitewash is the end game
Minister, what was your relationship with Mark Allen?
Been waiting…
…will develop on the strength of those names?
Over seventy everyday people, no celebrities
Were left here, picking up pieces of broken memories…
