"Walk a day in my shoes"
A LostSoulNamedMarco and Nikkz iZ DONE...Catch Yall On The Flip Side...DEUCEZ GS Collaboration


  LostSoulNamedMarco:

Walk a day in my shoes
Because I'm tired of niggas saying i know how ya feel
You don't know how I feel, you living a good life and keeping it real
Simply stated you aint me
Never will be
So you don't know me or how i feel

Walk a day in my shoes
And you will see when it rains it rains
I have felt the true heartache and pain
What you feel aint the same
We playing two different games
Your on a steady path while im constantly changing lanes

I lost my cousin, my grandmother, and my bestfriend
All murdered thats the truth it aint pretend
And not a single funeral i was able to attend
I couldnt handle it i didnt want our relationship to end

Walk a day in my shoes
And you wont be able to pick ya head up
Fiene got you shooked that your wet up
Lets see it only took you five mintues to be fed up
I thought you could handle my life, maybe you should man up

You thought you felt the same way too
Yea until you walked a day in my shoes

  Nikkz iZ DONE...Catch Yall On The Flip Side...DEUCEZ GS:

Walk a day in mah white Air Force Onez
Tell me have eva been trapped in a closet
Wit cho momz n pointed at her head iz a gun

Dont assume cuz I let choo in a lil
Dat choo juz kno wut I'm goin thru
Or been thru cuz da reality iz
Choo dont kno shit

Walk a day in mah black Ahdeedahz(adidaz)
Feelin trapped n lost in house full of addictz
Hidin out in mah room like Anne Frank wen she
Waz hidin in a attic

So u say yo daddy moved out wen u waz 15
N now u du see him as much az u used tu
But choo tell me how wuld u feel if he denied u
As hiz child, please u dont kno shit
Try walkin down a block in mah kix

Walk a day in mah Reebokz
Du yo mama stay out derr on da block
Tryna cop rox?
How many timez u dun had ta juz pack up
Yo shit n leave cuzz ya momz waz a dope fien
N she waz owin niggaz money
Please, u dont kno shit homie

  LostSoulNamedMarco:

Walk a day in my shoes
Let me warn you they aint no air forces
Call the boys tell dem send those reinforces
I know that you wont be able to handle it
Its takes someone with a true soul to commit
But let me be legit, at times i wanted to quit
And give up on my life, but something in me continued to fight

Walk a day in my shoes
And you be transformed into dirt
Felt like the lowest scum on earth
Sometimes i wish my mom never gave birth
Not even a cent was i worth
Why me i would scream out
Food and water days i went without

Walk a day in my shoes
And see i was suppose to never amount to nothing
When i empty my pockes all you'll find is lint and buttons
You say shoot i was poor too
But shit i was so poor couldnt even afford free school
I had to walk too many miles in my shoes

Walk a day in my shoes
And you will see its not all about the fame
Or having lights in your name
Cuz we all at one time lived the same
Think were they came
Everyone living hollywood
But you jus a nigga from the hood
It's time to wake up stop hitting the snooze
Open your eyes up , walk a day in my shoes



  Nikkz iZ DONE...Catch Yall On The Flip Side...DEUCEZ GS:

Yo walk a day in mah shoez
But b4 u du I gotta warn u
Wut choo gon experience da shit iz reel
U say u kno how I feel?
Juz wait till u set foot in mah shoez
Feelin like u waz born ta lose

Walk a day in mah black Vanz
Handle it, I dont think u can
Yo how many timez yo momz left choo
Alone at home wen u waz only 5 yearz old?

Walk a day in mah L.A. Gearz(ol skool)
Du u carry da same fearz as I
How many timez u dun walked down da street
N all dem ol headz saw waz a fresh piece of meat
8 yearz old n grown ass men chasin u down
Cuz u developed juz a lil bit early
Yo, have u eva been derr B4?

Walk a day in mah shoez
Have u eva got newz dat cho momz
Waz in jail n dey wasnt postin bail?
How many timez u n yo brotherz dun been in a foster home
Cuz ya momz waz out illin n her soul she waaz killin
Naw playa u think u can
But aint no way u'a survive in mah shoez
