My Heritage

They say you're a man in the making
They say you so energetic

They say I don’t show my full potential

They say I can do what I put my mind to



I say I’m a young numb adolescent

I say I need to take a chill pill sometimes

I say I am the best I can be
I say I do what I want and if you don’t like it goodbye



My family says go to church every Sunday

My family says pray every night
My family says go to college to be successful

My family says no foul music can enter into your sensitive ears



My religion says you need to go to church

My religion says hip hop is the devil

My religion says don't say anything that might offend anyone

My religion says stay away from anything that doesn't have to do with church
