| Now you don’t have to build a house
|
| The one that everybody thrilled about
|
| You put your pride right beside you
|
| Puttin' everything behind you just to find out what they really 'bout
|
| Oh that’s your circle, who they been around
|
| 'Cause they gon' want a bigger house (Bigger house)
|
| You worked your fingers to the bone just to get on what they on
|
| Somethin' crooked even when they smile
|
| 'Cause they no angels
|
| I see blood on their halos
|
| Y’all go ahead
|
| And somethin' 'bout the dice how they roll, oh

|
| But I climbed your humpty stairs, they gon' try to tell you
|
| Your heart ain’t nothin' but a window, they gon' try to break it
|
| New slab with them new chains, get they hands up
|
| This castle ain’t built, ain’t built for your friends, they not welcome (Yeah)
|
| That street talk, that chitter-chatter, that Jezebel, I can’t help 'em
|
| Dissassocation come on different levels, what the devil (Ooh)
|
| Now I gotta go my own way
|
| Knowin' that there ain’t no turn back now
|
| Tired of spending all my life waiting for my time when it’s all I have
|
| Now I gotta bind it all
|
| Now I gotta build my own house now
|
| If you ain’t gonna let me
|
| I’m gonna take my seat in my own home
|
| Oh, every single second of your life
|
| People saw you as their shelter
|
| Thought you’re hard, yeah (Yeah)
|
| Don’t let anybody try to break you down
|
| Don’t let anybody try to steal your crown
|
| You were made the way that you were supposed to be
|
| So don’t let anybody try to make you leave
|
| You were made to be different (So don’t you be in the distance)
|
| 'Cause you were made to pave the way
|
| Not to conform to what they say
|
| We gon' make it
|
| No, ain’t too late now
|
| You your own man now (Man now)
|
| You can get away now (Yeah)
|
| As the bands rolled down (Down)
|
| That your man rolled down (Down)

|
| Put the fear of God in there
