[Verse1]
Perhaps I was addicted to the dark side
Some where inside my childhood I missed my heart die
And even though we both came from
the same places
The money and the fame made us all change places
How could it be through
the misery hat came to pass
The hard times can make a true friend afraid to ask
For
currency
But you could run to me when you need me
I'll never leave honestly,
someone to believe in the shit we see
It's a small thing through and true
What
could I do?
Real homies help you get through
And comin' knew he'd do the same thang if he could
Cause in
the hood true homies make you feel good
But half the times we be actin' up call
the cops
Bringin' the cease to the peace that was on my block
It never
stops, when my mama ask me will I change
I tell her yeah but it's clear I'll always be
the same
Until the end of time
[Chorus]
Take, these broken wings
I need your hands to come and
heal me once again
(Until the End of Time)
So I can fly
Till the End of
Time
Take these broken wings
[Verse 2]
Please Lord forgive me for my life of sin
My hard stare seem to scare all my sister's kids
So you know, I don't hang around
the house much
This all night money makin' got me outta touch, shit
Ain't flashed a smile in a long while
An unexpected birth worst of
the ghetto child's
My attitude got me walkin' solo
Ride out alone in my low-low
Watchin'
the whole world move in slow mo'
For quiet times disappear listen to the ocean
Smokin' ports think my thoughts
Then it's back to coastin'
Who can I trust in this cold world
My phony
homey had a baby by my own girl
But I ain't trippin' I'm a playa
I ain't sweatin' him
I sex his sister had her
mumbling like a Mexican
His next of kin
No remorse it was meant to happen
Besides
rappin' the only thing I did good was scrappin'
Until the end of time
[Chorus]
So
take, these broken wings
I need your hands to come and
heal me once again
(Until the End of Time)
So I can fly
Till the End of
Time
Take these broken wings
You've got to learn to fly and learn to live
so free
So I can fly
Till the End of Time
[Verse 3]
Now who's to say if I was right or wrong?
To life my life
as an Outlaw all alone
Remain strong in this planet full of playa hatas
They conversate but Death Row full of demonstrators
And in
the end drinkin' Hennessey made all my enemies envy me
So cold when I flow
illuminatin' easily
Falls to they knees
They plead for they right to breathe
While beggin' me to keep
the peace
Ha ha
Well I can see close into achieve
In times of danger don't freeze time to be a chief
Follow my lead I supply everything you need
An ounce of game and
the trainin' to make a G
Remember me as an outcast outlaw
Another album out that's what I'm about, more
Gettin' raw 'till
the day I see my casket
Buried as a G while the whole world remembers me
Until the end of time
[Chorus]
Take, these broken wings
I need your hands to come and
heal me once again
(Until the End of Time)
So I can fly
Till the End of
Time
Take these broken wings
You've got to learn to fly and learn to live
so free
(Until the End of Time)
So I can fly
Till the End of Time
Till
the End of Time
I don't know what it is that has me acting all crazy out here
Guess
it's just my arrival?
And how you been poorly treating
Until the end of
time
Shit, we ain't got no other way
It ain't no mystery, you get what you
give
Feel me
What comes outta that, I can't tell you that
Maybe it's
the thug in me
