[South Park Mexican:]
Persecuted by the world
All I want is my baby girl
In my arms braided up on pretty curls
Keep the fame & the fortune I don't need it
Is to many out there wanna see me bleedin'
As I wake up feel stuck in time
In this place people lose they fuckin' mind
I see shadow's in the night of demon's dancin'
Most penitentiaries overseen by clansmen
Stay strong even though it's hard
Keep my head up & stay close to god
I see friends I knew back in school
They ain't the same covered up in tattoos
In the land of the free I'm forever known
Look up at the sky & pretend I'm home
Dear Lord I know you got a plan for me
But I'd rather be at home with my family.

[Chorus:]
If I Die mama don't lose your mind
Stay strong the world don't accept my kind
I was born hate free always been different
It's hard to stay alive when your brown & gifted. [x2]
[Rasheed:]
I understand it in due time my life is goin' to slide behind
The curtain of uncertainty the pearly gates to the fire
Cause I'm a ramblin' man, a gamblin' man
So when the shit hit's the fan my plan is to stand as a man
My canvas is bland painted the perfect picture
But my tears made the paint run; I need an eraser but shit it ain't one
The critics lookin' at the picture sayin' it feels dark
But you critickin' my art baby is still art
I know some people that respect me for me
I know some people that neglect me for me
& so it pans out so now when I pass & the last of my breath has been breathed [breaths]
At ease
Mama don't cry for me I'm watchin' over you
I'm still doin' the same thing your son is opposed to do
So if you love me love me & everything is fine
We're gonna reunite in the sky & do time.

[Chorus:]
If I Die mama don't lose your mind
Stay strong the world don't accept my kind
I was born hate free always been different
It's hard to stay alive when your brown & gifted. [x2]
[South Park Mexican:]
I tried to tell you that these muthafuckers wanted my soul
Hate me 'til I'm Dead & Gone but in love with my dough
As they listen to my CD that they got from somebody
I can't believe that he's sayin' this in custody.
Doesn't he realize we got him right were we want him?
I was warned by a prisoner they'll be comin'.
Can you imagine life without rats that back stab their own to try get where they at?
I made millions but felt I was never rich.
How can greed make people be so devilish?
I wrote a book entitled they can't stop me
Took about 20 pens & a lot of coffee
They hit me up with some years & a small fine
It's gonna be the greatest comeback of all time
& all I got left is true fans
Cause my horoscope said that my bitch found a new man.

[Chorus:]
If I Die mama don't lose your mind
Stay strong the world don't accept my kind
I was born hate free always been different
It's hard to stay alive when your brown & gifted. [x3]

If I Die.
