Make Out Music [1998]
[Intro]
I'm not scared

[Verse 1]
I wish I didn’t grow up
In the town that I grew up in
It kept me silent
It kept me stupid
Never fought back
Never fought back

[Verse 2]
Where were my friends
To keep me up, down
That's all it took to keep me on the ground
Rubbing mud in my eyes
Rubbing mud in my eyes

[Verse 3]
Don't want to live today
Was taught to tell
Walk away not fight
I wish to be
Muhammad Ali

[Verse 4]
Good morning sun
Good morning light
Each day it’s nice to see that you've come back
To give us all
Give us all
Another chance
[Verse 5]
Installing pride to make a glory ride
I want to love you
But I must save my hide
And these fists that hang beside my side
I realize what I gotta do
Na-nanny-boo-boo
Nanny-nanny-boo-boo

[Verse 6]
I'm feeling better today
I kicked his ass
It wasn't hard
I beat him down
That wasn't hard
This vibrate sound
Adrenaline

[Chorus 1]
What will mother say?
Blackened both his eyes
Busted but with twice the pride

[Bridge]
I was mad 'cause I was sad
Now there's a smile on my face
Knuckles hurt he's in the dirt
Feels like I’m taking a girl to second base, second base
This disrespect is what is wrecked
Just like the nose on that jerk’s face
I earned my place
[Chorus 2]
Shaking mad
Oh so glad
Sweet, sweet gift
I never had
