lyrics

(Chorus) We declining but we gotta keep climbing..
.
Some people live for the dream but scared of the reality.
In 40-16, walk in his Bally's...See
We trying to avoid the Valley of Death...
Looking around, just trying to see who's next...
Like, Fiends and Pregnant teens...Social services knocking
...hide the triple beam...put the rocks in a stocking
It's like everyday Hood shit...
Project development, we never get the good shit.

(Chorus) We declining but we gotta keep climbing...

Up the Hill and, hope that... we don't fall down.
But how a Black Rose gone grow in Hallowed Grown.
Most of us, had... to live without a father
Instead of valuing life, we'd rather be a mortar.
A cool nigga, but he dead now.
You's fool nigga, don't keep ya down.
You's a King who deserves a Queen and OffSpring.
A man should indulge in the truth that life brings.
By all means, we starting at the bottom
Looking for options, and wonder if we got em.
My faith ain't strong, I'm feeling like I'm boxed in.
What I'm a do with no food in the pots, and...
My baby crying, and she need to eat...before me
my sacrifice is street glory.
But I'm headed up North instead...
12 kicked the door in. two in cuffs one dead...we losing.

(Chorus) We declining but we gotta keep climbing...

May 23, 1992
I want you to know, we still miss you.
You still here with us, we all went to college
And passed the torch to expand the family knowledge
Houses and Salaries, who'd of thought
The dream became reality, because we fought
For better days and hey, none of it was easy
If you told me back then shit, I wouldn't believe me
It's been a long journey, but know that we are worthy.
I dedicate this verse, to Aunt Versie.
She persevered through some dark days...
And still raised your brother, deserved all praise...
Amazed by the ground we've covered, I scream Yes Sir
And gaze at the clouds embraced by ancestors...
Guide me through the- path- I- face..
We top of the Hill, until- we bow out with grace....
