| You wanted to be the smartest You got your education in the streets. I got mine in school. You wanted to be the fastest You ran from the cops. I ran for a touchdown. You wanted to be the strongest You fought in the streets. I fought in the dojo. You wanted to be the richest You started dealing. I started a business. You wanted to be famous You wrote on walls. I wrote in books. You wanted to get high You learned to use a needle. I learned to fly. You ran into me one day on the street You had a gun. I had my little girl. You said I had everything you ever wanted. I said I would give you everything I had. You wanted my daughter to have the same chance you were given You took my life. I watched my little girl get her education on the streets. |
