Revelations

Christian Moreno

When I was growing up
I made a vow to be different
See I was part of a system
I've seen homies buried in dirt or end up prison
Like many I was raised by a single mother
I was infatuated by the money and respect
And flags of a color
When I ended up in the hospital
With death over watching me I knew I had a purpose
I had a story to tell
A story to give
So the truth came to surface
I serve my time for this country
Like I served time for the streets
I put my time in this music
For years I've been painting this masterpiece
It's far from being done
Everyday I pray to god that my strokes on this canvas never change
I made a vow to be different
And I pray that doesn't change

I came into this shit trying to make a change
If you ain't got the follows you ain't getting plays
Everybody talk everybody say
He's really from the hood so tell me what he bang
He's rocking up the Nikes and he got the chain
Without you realizing that it took the pain
Started from the bottom I was in the rain
Hitting different artist so they heard my tape
Nobody wants to fuck with you until the buzz
Everybody watch but never shows the love
And the industry is grimy if you know what's up
People going to do you dirty just to get a dub
I see the music videos and it's all the same
Money, woman, respect cause it shows the fame
Why would I, try to fake something that I ain't
That ain't me I'm just looking for the better days
If you took a listen you would hear the truth
I'm Chicano, I know I got a lot to prove
See my people in a bucket trying to make a move
But my people are the reason that we never move
You can hate me for the truth, but I know it hurts
You can hate me for the facts that were on my verse
It don't really make a difference im a man of word
You reveal the truth when you're from the dirt

Im praying I don't fall, begging this to you
Keep me in my path please I'm begging you
I know you got a plan but I'm asking you
Don't ever let me change because you know the truth
Im praying I don't fall, begging this to you
Keep me in my path please I'm begging you
I know you got a plan but I'm asking you
Don't ever let me change because you know the truth

Was asking for the help no one gave it out
I started up a label and I coughed it out
I'm the type of motherfucker just to help them out
I remember starting up and everybody doubts
If you ever did me dirty man I wish you well
Hope your life is full of blessings and it's full of health
See this life will come around and put us in a shelf
And when karma is at your door you did it to yourself
Hope I never get derailed from what I believe
The more money that you get is not enough to feed
The hunger deep inside when you feel the greed
I just want to set my family for what they need

I'm praying I don't fall begging this to you
Keep me in my path please I'm begging you
I know you got a plan but I'm asking you
Don't ever let me change cause you know the truth

I'm praying I don't fall begging this to you
Keep me in my path please I'm begging you
I know you got a plan but I'm asking you
Don't ever let me change because you know the truth
I'm praying I don't fall begging this to you
Keep me in my path please I'm begging you
I know you got a plan but I'm asking you
Don't ever let me change because you know the truth
