If I Only Had Words Lyrics

"If I only had words" [Chorus] If I was gonna tell somebody I wanna make it clear that they see Ain't no room for hidin' I want it to be you that would know [Verse One] Yo, I gotta give a shout out to my mom Yo, Miss Pam you the bomb You all that miss lady Yeah, look at your baby I'm all grown Representin' my home In a zone I'm proof That the ghetto has more than crack Man, I'm a black American dream And I work off pure, self esteem Just a lump of coal Pressure and time Changed to a diamond Out shinin', out rhymin', out climbin' And once I hit the mountain Spit like your main squeeze poutin' Fall like the Vatican can stop me Point the finger if you want But I don't know who you got I rose to the top Fresh out a bottomless pit And clawed my way Churned, crawled, balled and spit And every brother is the same as Dice Cause we all from the streets We all have the same lighting Yo, the hoods bug It's time to make things right From north Philly to north Memphis To Cabrini Green To all the wards East L.A., y'all know what I mean We from the same place as MJ And Martin Luther Hip hop Changed corner boys to producers And if you look at it like that It don't seem that bad at all You wanna know how to make it? Just ask the Raw No matter fact, the truth is dawg Yo, you ain't gotta ask at all Cause [Chorus] [Verse Two] So I can describe my frustrations Or describe my love Or describe the feeling, of looking up at a judge Or describe the girls playin' double dutch When we play kick ball Or play catch a girl, get a girl I know y'all remember that y'all The hood that I love is the one without drive bys Aye yo, the one we all love seen through a child's eyes I watch Happy Days, everyone was happy with glee That's when you think, "Why wasn't it like that for me?" But it's all good Because inside me is all hood Now when I ride Inside all leather and wood Yo, make something out myself? Didn't know that I could Cause livin' with poverty Used to really bother me Deep down inside My tears never dried Anger kept me grounded I never used my wings to fly But I ain't tell you how I felt about the hood So y'all can hate it I told you this so you can love it And embrace it [Chorus] - x2Dice Raw f/ Jill Scott - If I Only Had Words - http://motolyrics.com/dice-raw-f-jill-scott/if-i-only-had-words-lyrics.html
