Danny B. - A Changed Man

I was looking for another way
I was searching for a better route
Tryna make it out
Lotta grown ups was in my ear
I wann tryna hear what they was saying
I had my own plans
My own intentions
My own objective
I was on a mission
Now i'm thinking different
I know I aint perfect
BUT

Living that street life really wann worth it
Police pulled up
put me down on my face
K-9 to my face
Glock 9 to my face
What am I supposed to say?

Aine do nun wrong but it look like i did
I'm thinking man why they wanna mess wit the kid
Was it my dreads or the color of my skin?
Kept getting harrassed
Again and again
Smoking and drinking, indulging in sin
To be like my friends

Now i'm a changed man
I had to change plans
I aint the same man
Switched around my circle
Stopped smoking the purple
I went from F's and D's to A's and B's
I prayed to God and I believe that he did it
Now i'm a changed man
A changed man
I had to change plans
I aint the same man
Switched around my circle
Stopped smoking the purple
I went from F's and D's to A's and B's
I prayed to God and I believe that he did it

I was tryna be cool
Skipped school
Chillin wit some bad dudes
Broke rules
I was hurting deep inside but i didn't let it show
All the pain from the past that I couldn't let go
Now i'm on Go
Chasing my dreams
I'm more than the Jordans I wear
I'm more than the boots I buy
I'm more than the stars in the sky
Im DANNY, B, HODGES, JR....(AYY)
Got my, smartness, from my, momma, ima, school boy
Hard, worker, like my, daddy, no play toy
Came, from a, long, way
It's a long storryyy

But if you wanna listen well, Sit down
Take a seat
I remember days I couldn't eat
I remember nights I couldn't sleep
I was out late, Being a thief
Tip-Toed when I start to creep
I was running the streets like a bat out of hell
Ducking police like I broke out of jail
Sold marijuana while using a scale
All my report cards said that I failed
Class clown joking round with my class buddies
All the dirt I was doing had my face dirty
They asking how I got money while I aint working
Ima tell you the truth and I ain't perking
I was hitting lics, robbing and I been serving
But I changed My life around now i ain't the same
Sick and tired of the way that I was doing things

I broke loose from the chains of Addiction
I broke loose from the chains of Aggression
I broke loose from the chains of Neglection
I broke loose from the chains of Depression
I prayed out to God and accepted
Go to school just to learn me a lesson
Work hard just to earn me a blessing
This ain't no rap its my open confession
I swear I done Changed....(Yeah)

Now i'm a changed man
I had to change plans
I aint the same man
Switched around my circle
Stopped smoking the purple
I went from F's and D's to A's and B's
I prayed to God and I believe that he did it
Now i'm a changed man
A changed man
I had to change plans
I aint the same man
Switched around my circle
Stopped smoking the purple
I went from F's and D's to A's and B's
I prayed to God and I believe that he did it
