Beautiful

Or even doubt if I'm real?

Let me see you got teens killing men

Got babies, no fathers

Got souls in the pen

From a place that won't guide us

And in the hood they divide us

But fuck it, I'm a rider

That's what these young niggas holler

You try to touch 'em, why bother?

When that's the only thing they know

In their eyes that hope ain't wealth

And I might get trampled and surpassed

If I don't save myself, damn

I done drove down that road

I done played on that street

I done laid in that bed

I done sat in my frame in that seat

Saw bodies getting wrapped up in sheets

Killers outchea strapped up with heat

People love to add to my pain

I just want to subtract from the grief

Got me thinking what good is this shit?

How hood is this shit?

If I can't feed my family

Feeling like I should have been hit

I swear it's time to push forward

I ain't missing that chance

I can't see through the dark

But in the midst of advance

Oh, that's beautiful

I turn my uglies into beautifuls

Uglies into beautifuls

I turn my uglies into beautifuls

I turn my uglies into beautifuls

I turn my uglies into beautifuls

Uglies into beautifuls

I turn my uglies into beautifuls

I turn my uglies into beautifuls

I pray my heart don't get destroyed

Dealing with these sharks I can't avoid

My people need work I can't employ

My God, I'm hurting, erase the void

Inside my soul I need to smile

Gonna get my phone, I need to dial

Punch in your number to keep me proud

Hearing thunder, all I see is clouds

I'm so far down, I'm suicidal

Lord, I need you, I don't do the Bible

I want real love, not a pool of rivals

Being I'm God's son and you the idol

Please let my hope consume revival

Haul my basket for survival

Foes had no plans of being mindful

Now people wanna stab me in the spinal

Can you forgive me for my sins?

Give me life throughout my faults

Unlock this passion in my body

So I can take my thoughts up out the vault

There's no way I can stop, pause or halt

I took my scars, I took the salt

Yelling fuck this life, I'm getting lost

Tell me why I feel like I'm getting crossed

Come and take me out of this hell

Break me out of this jail

Don't let me drown in this water

Don't hate me, allow my ship to sail

Something like a hummingbird in flight

Or like a mockingbird sight

Can you hand me beauty through the night?

So I can truly do what's right

Oh, that's beautiful

I turn my uglies into beautifuls

Uglies into beautifuls

I turn my uglies into beautifuls

I turn my uglies into beautifuls

I turn my uglies into beautifuls

Uglies into beautifuls

I turn my uglies into beautifuls

I turn my uglies into beautifuls

I turn my uglies into beautifuls

Uglies into beautifuls

I turn my uglies into beautifuls

I turn my uglies into beautifuls

I turn my uglies into beautifuls

Uglies into beautifuls

I turn my uglies into beautifuls

I turn my uglies into beautifuls
