As A Black Man, You Run From

I Tell Myself Time Heals. It Really Does.

You Know, Before When (the Police Went) To Work, They Used To Be Like, 'i'm Gonna Kick Somebody's Ass Today And So I Hope I Can Catch Somebody In A Bad Situation Or Breaking The Law, Because I'm Gonna Beat Someone's Ass In A Big Way, I Think That Attitude Has Changed.

I Saw My Hometown Burning That Day.

When I Leave Here, When My Final Day On This Earth Is Up, I Want To Leave In Peace. I Want To Have Peace In My Heart.

I Had To Learn To Forgive. I Couldn't Sleep At Night. I Got Ulcers. I Had To Let Go, To Let God Deal With It. No One Wants To Be Mad In Their Own House. I Didn't Want To Be Angry My Whole Life. It Takes So Much Energy Out Of You To Be Mean.
