[DJ Scratching by Paul "DJ Don Juan" Strickland] [Intro: No Malice] Lord have mercy, and pity on ya son From what I once was to what I have become [Verse 1: Lecrae] Dark Past full of evil endeavors Heart clean never black and ugly as ever However, I seen my family die from them rocks Them fiends on blocks including my own pops Homie I seen two much to drink them two cups Can't lean on the lean, already way too screwed up Was way too gone, I was way too cold Fifty yard Hail Mary I was way too thrown I was Tarzan, raised by gorillas and the beasts High on them trees When I gorilla the beats Then that truth came hit me, took me outa' my grave All my partners say I'm changed, how I'm going stay the same, huh?!
