Man Down
Lets get into a troubled man mind
The problems he face , he is more happy when the day is over
He wakes up every morning
Family on his mind, he hustles and grinds
Hardworking man , has plenty of skills , his current job
Gives him his last check
Now he is only working cheap labor , opens the check ,$400
He has 4 kids ,1 wife
He thinks "Damn! what I'm going to do for this life "
He looks and looks
Searching ,while finding himself knowledge with these books
Jobs judges his skin color
He gives up and search for knowledge in the streets
When he walks his head is pointing towards the ground
He tired of spinning going through these rounds
Public assistance he refuses
Because when the case gets close they be full of excuses
Come on ,he has 4 kids 1 wife
Time is ticking
He goes straight to the streets
Start selling nickels and dimes
Sold to an undercover cop and now he doing time
He only gave 3 dimes
Which is $30 of time
Flipped to 30 years in crime
Kids all grown up
Wife moved on
He sits here and think
One blink of an eye
He is back to reality
In the lobby , waiting
Predicting his next steps
Interviewer walks in
"Hello, Mr.Johns tell me about yourself"
He says, "I am a hardworking man
Motived and determined
Willing to go 8 miles
Just for a smile"
Interviewer says, "Alright Mr. Johns you can stop right there, sign right here and we will start your files,
you are hired on the spot , so quit your worrying and give me all you got"
4 kids ,1 wife
No struggles, no worries and no pain
Now he can relax ,
Because Ya'll see he now he getting paid
