Pod Southtown Lyrics

Southtown Lyrics

Welcome to hard times, back again like it's never been. for the first time it 
seems to mess with my head. when i realize what it takes, can i realate. with 
whatever, but never will it drive me to hate. could i be the next guy that 
you take before i wake. now i lay me down to sleep, eyes tight when i pray. 
this here is real life, circumstances make you think. should i be counting my 
blessings, the next second my eyes blink. 

[chorus:] here in the southtown you know that kid don't play. put it
down 
on the streets, will i see another day. if i make it back this time, gots to 
hold what is mine. and thank god that i made it alive.

One love it's easier said than done. can i rise above anything that gets in 
my way?. like words you say, you let your tongue get loose. and when push 
comes to shove, i'm not used to walking away. i keep on looking up, because 
these times are getting tough. tomarrows gone and its the same o' song. 
father fill my cup, give me strength to power up. a life to shine, you're the 
diamond in this rough.
IT AINT GOTS TO BE LIKE THIS. DONT WANT TO THROW UP MY FIST. 
DONT WANNA 
BE LIKE THIS. DONT WANNA THROW UP MY FIST. I MUST RESIST.

[chorus:] [chorus:] here in the southtown you know that kid don't play. 
put it down on the streets, will i see another day. if i make it back this 
time, gots to hold what is mine. and thank god that i made it alive.
