Make Things Right

Yo, on my way to the studio, today, man, I started thinking about some serious stuff. You know: lies I've told, people I've hurt and stuff, then I told to myself "I'm 20 years old, now". It's
time I do something about it...

I was walking down the streets, started thinking 'bout my life...
Now I'm try'na make things right
'Cause I can't just complain and get down without a fight...
Now I'm try'na make things right
I was blinded by the pain, couldn't see the light...
Now I'm try'na make things right
I dunno about tomorrow, man, but today I just write...
Make, make, make, make things right

It's time to do this
Combine, condone the music my mind produces
Without my thoughts inside, my inside is useless
Ruthless, I couldn't find time to do it
I finally designed a blueprint
For my life and it's right: if you don't try, you lose it
I was the worst kind of student, with my mind on rims and bullshit
I was really stupid
Should've let you guys try'na guide me through it
In a blink of an eye you do it
But my pride refused shit, I got all kinds of bruises
Couldn't speak, only the lies came fluid
It's not enough with my excuses
The right thing, I promise you, I try and do it
I'd do anything I can just to try and prove it
You can do it with your mind into it

I guess it's time for you to decide
Better act now, before your life is wasted
I guess it's time for you to decide
You've walked that path before

I guess it's time for you to decide
Better act now, ain't no time to lose
I guess it's time for you to decide
You've walked that path before

I don't really care if I don't sell no CDs
I do it for the L.O.V.E
I sacrificed half my life for what I love
So of course my tracks are write from the heart
I ain't in for the fame and glory, that's self explanatory
Everyday it's the same old story:
Go to work, take a break, go to work, go to eat
Go home, hit the studio, go home, go to sleep
I'm sorry if I don't see y'all that often, but I'm lost in this music
I can't lose it, it's my life
I don't need no ink when I write
The tears I've shed will be my pen,
Yo, come to the studio at 10,
12 hours later I'm home again
The pen, lately, it's my only friend
I love the way you changed my life
As long as I have a pen in my hand, I can make things right
Yeah, I can make things right
All I need is a pen, to make things right

I guess it's time for you to decide
Better act now, before your life is wasted
I guess it's time for you to decide
You've walked that path before

I guess it's time for you to decide
Better act now, ain't no time to lose
I guess it's time for you to decide
You've walked that path before

I was walking down the streets, started thinking 'bout my life...
Now I'm try'na make things right
'Cause I can't just complain and get down without a fight...
Now I'm try'na make things right
I was blinded by the pain, couldn't see the light...
Now I'm try'na make things right
I dunno about tomorrow, man, but today I just write...
Make, make, make, make things right
