I Need A Moment
[Verse 1: K-Rino]
Say, tomorrow you could see your last Sun or last Moon
Feel like I'm bleeding out from emotional stab wounds
It's like a storm, we just hoping that it pass soon
Girl had a baby in that gas station bathroom
It ain't no break for some of us, man everyday be tough
These drugs got our young people doing some crazy stuff
Fast trigger take a life as a show of force
And even after they kill 'em they showing no remorse
18 and your life already minimized
The judge sentenced him to more time than he'd been alive
Ain't no winners, when it's over it's a lose-lose
So much hate for each other we some confused dudes
How many lost in the game, I know plenty names
Seem like a little money'll make people do anything
I'm sitting up, heartbroken from this killing mane
After the fact it's a shame, what did you really gain?

[Hook x2: Cl'Che & K-Rino]
Everyday it's getting worse
I need a moment just to calm my nerves
I'm only looking out for you
Dialing the number but I can't get through

[Verse 2: K-Rino]
Lets keep it real, blacks die when the police come
Unarmed, shot for no reason, matters where we from
Same type of video, it's like watching a rerun
Then they twist it on the victim and question what he'd done
And on the ground lies the physical remnants of him
Turn on the TV, they paint a negative image of him
Quit telling me to forgive 'em because I'm above trying
If God don't love his enemies why would I love mine?
Watching a brother get shot up by police till he die
Seeing the life exit his body, man that's something I
Just can't describe how bad it hurt me, I'm finna cry
Like Cuba Good in Boyz n the Hood punching the sky
I'm on my guard now, feeling like one day I'ma kill
I know if I'm hurting like this, think how his momma feel
You took a father from a baby, husband from a wife
But in your mind it's just another worthless n***a's life
[Hook x2: Cl'Che & K-Rino]
Everyday it's getting worse
I need a moment just to calm my nerves
I'm only looking out for you
Dialing the number but I can't get through

[Verse 3: K-Rino]
And what's even more heartbreaking
Is seeing us kill each other with no thoughts taken
Thinking 'bout way way back, hard to envision how
That baby you used to pack around, he in prison now
The overall situation left a lot ruined
I'm like, "Damn, if only I could have got to him"
No where to hide, everybody on the spot knew him
Influenced by some reckless things he wouldn't stop doing
Left or right? Which direction is the choice within ya
You a God, you just got that Devil poison in ya
Don't even know who he is, I pray the Lord reveal him
I go to jail for whooping my child but you get to kill him?
I seen people try some dope one time then they fiends
Our children be committing suicide in their teens
It's never over even though you had a hard life
I wish you knew how special that you are in God's sight

[Hook x2: Cl'Che & K-Rino]
Everyday it's getting worse
I need a moment just to calm my nerves
I'm only looking out for you
Dialing the number but I can't get through
