Who Told U? - Chris Ward

When you dreaming, please don’t let it be a nightmare.

Whoever told you, that life’s fair.

I’m right there.

Whoever told you, that life’s fair

When you dreaming, please don’t let it be a nightmare

When you wake up screaming, I’m right there

To lighten the mood, I’m like the sun with a bright glare

I’m just sitting in my bedroom, all alone

Thinking of life, how most of it all is wrong

I’m more than grateful, that I can stand tall and strong

For that matter, I don’t care what you call this song

Cause this one, coming straight from the heart

The same story I’ve been trying to tell y’all, straight from the start

Life is a crazy thang

Remember Hardest Pit track 13, shady game

All my peers is still down, my mothers tears is still crying

The FEDs in the hood, and they still spying

Trying they damnedest, to catch a nigga

First chance you give em, they gon try and get you nigga

God knows, that they sent just to get you nigga

Just to capture you, in the rapture nigga

You see the fame and the fortune, ain’t all what it seems

It’s like living a dream, inside of a dream

Take a good glimpse, at all the shit you facing

It’s options, instead it’s sticky situations

But no, there’s no trials without tribulations

And, no hustle without determination

And no racism, without discrimination

Cause believe it or not, it still exists within this nation

A lot of times, I feel impatient

Cause there’s no small sign, or indication

Of how long, are we all gon be here

Cause if you pass them bars, you feel the streets gon be here

It’s one life one chance, one heaven up above

One man one night, one dance

And this one goes out, to my folks on lock

Going through hell, in cell blocks

When you get out, hold your head and try to maintain

Cause I promise you, ain’t nothing changed uh

(*talking*)

Know I’m saying, it’s real

Whoever told you life’s fair, just think about it

This what I get in my dreams sometimes

When I wake up screaming, if that happens

Well, you already know yes

Whoever told you that life’s fair, nightmare

I’m right there, bright glare
