How'

HE is the ONE...Look to the SON! Ever been misused Ever been abused Ever been falsely accused, Ever been raped Ever been taped, Ever been talked about Ever been kicked out Ever been full of doubt? B u t G o d... Remember when you heard no Remember when they said you can't go Remember when they said you're too slow, Remember when the doctors said you wouldn't make it Remember when the lawyers said you couldn't shake it Remember when the enemy said you wouldn't break it Remember when you thought you couldn't take it? B u t G o d... How about neglected How about disrespected How about arrested How about tested, How about lost everything u had How about cut, sliced, or stabbed How about pushed, shoved, or grabbed, B u t G o d... Have you been attacked Have you been threatened because you were black, Have you ever lost your breath Have you ever stared in the eyes of death, Have you ever been addicted to any drug Have you ever missed a guns slug Have you ever been exposed to a bug, Have you been in a car crash Have you ever felt like trash? B u t G o d... Are you still in your right mind Are you still capable of telling time, Are you still standing Are you understanding Are you still comprehending, Are you still breathing??? B U T G O D!!! HE is the ONE...Look to the SON!
