Lyrics

Yep, you know all throughout my life since my childhood to the present I?ve been lied on cheated on betrayed, yall know the deal, so you should know how I really feel.


I was born Aug 17th who would of ever believed/
That I would be, one man against many/
Throughout my childhood I was getting tested/
Holding my faith and not well rested/
Feeling a pain in my heart that I had to fix/
My desire to be rich/
Visions of me standing up/
As a kid not known for being a punk/
Watching my mother struggle to raise 5 kids/
Believe me, I love her for what she did/
Kept a brother out of trouble, it?s true/
A mother loves you/
Kissed my sores mad me feel alright/
Hearing her cry in the middle of the night/
Worried we got her stressing/
And my brother, always in some mess man/
How much can my mother take/
Father absent within the household my mother needs a break/
These babies driving her crazy/
She amazes me, I love the way she raised me/
Gave us her last for ice cream and good and plenty/
She told me to stand, I?m one man against many/

My mother told me a long time ago if you find one friend in this life that we lead
you?ve found a jewel, a pure jewel.

Let?s travel back to my stage as an adolescent/
Times were drastic, I?m lucky I?m not in a casket/
Drinking, fucking and smoking weed/
On the road not to achieve, believe me!/
My mother and father were clueless/
About all the evil shit I was doing/
Skipping school, running balls deep into the ladies/
When it came to that, cats couldn?t fade me/
Graduated over a year late/
Who would of ever known the Army would be my fate/
Helped me escape the cold city streets/
Gave them 3 years it was like being on a retreat/
Except when they tried to throw me out the army/
I realized the government controlled me/
I rebelled and almost got thrown out/
They didn?t realize God was my clout/
Testifying 7 people versus me/
They had to throw it out, I?m one man against many/

Yes, Yes, Yes, God Yes! A thanks goes out to all of those that had my back
while I did my stint in the United States Military. My rebellion ways were very
necessary to bring about change, naw I ain?t deranged , I remain the same, ain?t
nothing changed.

Now I?m all grown up and being a man/
And still getting tested in this wicked land/
I refuse to stand by and not cry/
Or ask why, Why do we die?/
At such an inordinate rate/
Wait, this can?t be our fate/
If it is please explain to me/
Why? (Pleeaase)Because my heart bleeds/
Tired of seeing the youth stray/
I can relate, I was like them yesterday/
But God had a mission, so now I?m fishing/
I gotta die speaking for upliftment/
You can make it just hold your faith/
And believe, don?t worry about your age/
I?m still learning and getting burnt/
By oppressive people, reappearing stronger once the lessons learnt/
To the day I day I shall follow no man/
Use your mind and take a stand/
I believe in you, do you believe in me/
If so, then follow me/
To the promised land/
But first, you must comprehend/
We?re after the same thing and that?s freedom/
There?s a cost it?s not free to be dumb/
But your better than that my fellow woman and man/
It?s time for us to take a stand/
I?m just one man with a world of enemies/
God told me, I?m one man against many/

There is nothing you can do to stop me. You sent people out to harm me, people
out to bomb me, tried to throw me out the Army and the University. You?ve had
no mercy. This hasn?t been a pleasant experience on top of this earth for what it?s
worth, but that?s alright I?m one man against many and as long as I got God in my
corner, until they call the coroner I?m a break bread across the land and the seas
and I?m a attack the beast with my words and my deeds. One man against
many. I know yall shocked I?m still here, but I?m here, I?m here, I right up in
your face, right up in your face?
