Mark Battles – Welcome To My World lyrics
Yeah, look
Man what's up with this life,
I was born in a city where nothing is nice
It's crazy, 'coz every favour seems to come with a price,
And all the black kids starting young on the dice
Many times my uncle hustled at night,
I got into scuffles and fights 'til my knuckles was white
Then we found sports and me and my brother was hyped,
And my momma stressed that being a thug just wasn't the life
(It wasn't right)
No lie we ain't had the worst of it,
Most of the time we had it good we was suburban kids,
Hittin' licks, flippin' bricks, we had never heard of it,
And the new surroundings just magnified our nervousness
(We was nervous), so I stayed on my grades in school making the A's
With the waves in my fade,
I had planned to be the next "Reggie"
Or maybe even "Jordan" if they let me

Welcome to my World
This reality though, I say the real world is no reality show
Look left, look right, where should we actually go
That's the big question, no one happens to know
Welcome to my World
Welcome to my World
This is my world nah it ain't all peaches and cream,
And nothing ever be what it seems
Welcome to my World

All these stars got my head going
I'm on my grind, 'Coz I'm trying to keep my bread growing
So Ima run it and run it 'til my legs swollen,
Or until my knees go out I feel like I'm Greg Oden
Can't stop now, I ain't finished half of it
I know its a puzzle I just want the peace like an activist
Trying to make my problems disappear like a magic trick
I don't know how to answer the question that's why I'm asking it
World full of savages trying to steal your happiness
Wishing I knew why "he" took my brother in that accident
He wore his seat belt, and he fastened it
This is my life, but I'm not the catalyst
I'm just in the boat but I'm not paddlin'
But that's what's best I will prolly crash it quick
Ready to master "it", but I gotta do it first
Speak my mind into the worst, Welcome to my Universe

Welcome to my World
This reality though, I say the real world is no reality show
Look left, look right, where should we actually go
That's the big question, no one happens to know
Welcome to my World
Welcome to my World
This is my world nah it ain't all peaches and cream,
And nothing ever be what it seems
Welcome to my World
