Z-Ro - True Hero Under God Lyrics
[Z-Ro]24/7, I'm in trouble for nothin'To the laws on the topic of they daily discussionBlood pumpin' & rushin' I gotta struggle to surviveI be rappin' but I can do with a 9 to 5Long as it be legal, I be willin' to tryAll I need is a pair of wings, I be willin' to flyTryin' to get a piece of the pie & I ain't takin' I work for itI be doin' right, but I'm bein' punished on Earth for it.What else can I do to make it on this scene?Seem like whatever I do will get me up in prisonNever see me on the corner, never caught me with crackGot a dream of leavin' the ghetto & ain't comin' backHomicide detectives, tryin' to threaten me with some timeOnly thing I ever murdered was college ruled linesIt's a patent punishment in America's designArrested & incarcerated for other peoples crimes, it's so amazin'.[Z-Ro:]Oh, sometime one time, stereotype meThe jewelry & gold teethThey swear I've got to be runnin' drugsBut I am just a man, tryin' to Satan freeThrough hell is where they're takin' meI swear it's so amazin' to be a thugA True Hero Under God's sight from above.[Z-Ro]Everyday I see my people in povertyAnd when I say my people, I mean everybody I seeAnd no discrimination on Caucasian or AsianOr Mexican Samoan, lesbians or the gay menEverybody got a day to die & they won't miss itBetter be ready for company when death come visitMan I wish Adam & Eve, wouldn't have been in the gardenNow the devil swingin' at me, got me weavin' & bobbin'Homies are being murdered by lieutenants to sergeantsLike Weez, we uprooted just as soon we harvestSearchin' for sunshine's overcated by darknessLookin' for protection in God's heavenly fortressThey tell me when I make it, there'll be no more painAin't gotta be nervous about somebody knowin' your nameEverybody is your family, it's love around youEven on Earth, God is your upper when people down you so amazin'.[Z-Ro:]Am I cursed while on this Earth?'Cause I can't find better daysBut still I give the Lord praiseEven though these pirates request my bloodBut I am just a man, tryin' to stay Satan freeThrough hell is where they're takin' meI swear it's so amazin' to be a thugA True Hero Under God's sight from above.[Z-Ro:]The weight of my stress is like a 50 ton boulderMakin' my head heavy, can't be lifted by my shouldersNo wonder why my head down, I be thinkin' too hardAnd be smokin' like a tail pipe & drinkin' too hardI decided to give it up & give it to GodInstead of livin' in the world, I'm a live in the LordGave up cussin' this time while I'm spittin' my barsWith a vision of me in prison, that vision is fraudInvestigators cookin' the case, cookin' too hardI know they know I didn't do it 'cause they lookin' for ClaudeNobody hollin' at me, got me feelin' like an outlawHad a case against a brother, but I broke it apartNo weapon formed against me shall prosper, if it's writtenEven though michettis be cuttin' & guns be spittin'I got a Satan proof vest on, stoppin' the devil head onWith Jesus I'm a stop him, that's some'ing you can bet on amazin'.[Z-Ro:]Oh, sometime one time, stereotype meThe jewelry & gold teethThey swear I've got to be runnin' drugsBut I am just a man, tryin' to Satan freeThrough hell is where they're takin' meI swear it's so amazing to be a thugA True Hero Under God's sight from above.
