The Alarm

Do you believe they could call you the greatest?

So you pay your bills but you barely made it

Do you believe that it's all on your shoulders

And everything would seem clearer if you stayed sober?

Do you believe that your heart is really in it

When you know most these folks ain't impressed with

your vision?

Do you believe that this pep talk

Will keep you in top form when so many fell off?

Do you believe that the world feels your pain?

It's kill or be killed, can you keep what you claim?

Do you believe that you really can sustain

This lifestyle, sky miles, ballin in the chains?

Do you believe that these niggas really fuck with you?

When you hit rock bottom, look how many stuck with ya

Do you believe that the devils all around?

If he's knockin at your door, have strength to turn him

down

Do you believe? They can barely hear the real shit

In a world of fantasies, can you be a realist?

Do you believe that the governments concealing

Their true intentions, apprehending those who won't be

pillaged?

Do you believe that doing right will make you richer?

And just because you're paid, these white folks still

won't call you nigger Do you believe that you can sacrifice it all

When the balls in your court and your time has been

called Do you believe that God will forgive you?

For those times that you didn't let him steer you?

For those times that you up and lost faith

Cause you swore he couldn't hear you and nothing ever

changed

Do you believe that screaming out his name

When you lost your best friend is what really helped

the pain Do you believe that you never loved fame

And you wouldn't miss a dime if you lost it all today
