You could be blind

[Chorus 2x]
You could be blind
But you gon´ see it when you need to see it
You gon´ be fine
´Cause you gon´ be here when you need to be here
One of a kind
First free your mind, and then you´ll free your spirit
Go where I go, dog in my life
[Verse 1]
Now if you start with dirt, then you start with hurt
You start with "Oh, you ain´t got?"
Well here, take my shirt
Start with work, blood and tears over the years
Goin´ through whatever we go through, we stickin´ it out here
Pups turn into dogs, tadpoles into frogs
I´m just eatin´ what´s in front of me, ain´t thinking about yours
But I´ma keep my paws on what´s mine
Beg ´til I find
Strapped ´til I´m blind
A nigga that whatever I do, still gon´ be able to spit this
I´m wit´ this, ´cause this is mine, you scared shitless
Rap niggas can´t fuck with the dog
Never, could be twenty below outside
I´m built for the weather
It could be hotter than lava, I wouldn´t bother to sweat
Some of you niggas, form a following, but you startin´ to forget
I paid my dues, not only did you not wear
But you would really love it
If you could meet that cat that made my shoes
C´mon!
[Chorus 2x]
[Verse 2]
Now see, what I do is peep shit, keep shit low
Keep paying attention to what you trying to show me
Livin´, but you never know, we livin´
Don´t give me what you don´t owe me
Don´t tell me that you love me
Don´t talk shit, don´t kill me slowly
´Cause a dog like me, is an only
Meaning, hit another like you, truth hurts, but I can´t be phony
You always looking for bad, look at you mad
But you won´t be satisfied ´til it took what you had
(Aight) I´m a thoro nigga, I keep my word
And anybody that´s ever met me, got love for me
So I keep a heard
And that shit y´all niggas told me got me fucked up in the head
Went from, "Yo, that´s my dog"
To, "Yeah, that nigga dead"
What the fuck is all this?
News to me
Dog it´s like shit ain´t what it used to be
See some niggas choose to be on the other side of the fence
Keep riding with this, get fried in the mix
C´mon!
[Chorus 2x]
[Verse 3]
Now if it ain´t that, then don´t say that
´Cause I don´t play that, y´all play that
But the poke ain´t black, damn, why you say that?
I thought that...what?
Nevermind, I just thought it
We supposed to keep it real
I destroy what I was taught
Misery, love, company
Now you niggas talikin´ ´bout jumpin´ me, pumpin´ me
Full of slugs, blood, stud with the love
Damn, I just gave, what a real, nigga does
Don´t listen to the buzz, don´t get caught up in the hype
You´ll lose everything that you worked for
Trying to take a nigga´s stripes
Live life through life, and so on and so on
That´s when the grow on, man, get your flow on
You niggas gettin´ too old for this kid shit
On the real, we all done did shit to get shit
Snake shit, right is better, wrong is wrong
Mo´herfucker, listen to this song
You see what shit I´m on
C´mon!
[Chorus 4x]
You could be blind
But you gon´ see it when you need to see it
You gon´ be fine
´Cause you gon´ be here when you need to be here
One of a kind
First free your mind, and then you´ll free your spirit
Go where I go, dog in my life
