Sevin No Superman
[Chorus: Sevin]
Try to save the world
Said I'd try to save the world
If I could wipe away all your tears
And then fight away all the fears you have
I'd try to save the world
Something's missin' my friend
Cuz I'm no different than them no
I'm no Superman
Yuh C'mon
I'm no Superman
[Verse 1: Sevin]
And it's wild cuz as a child
I never thought about bread much
But look at us now
It could be a couple dollars we head bust
And getting money's a head rush
And they say dirty cash don't last
But it fed us you square nigga
You don't know what it's like mane
Up all night on dirty knees counting G's in the dice game
And the first ice chain that you got from the white ‘caine
Was like brain from a tight dame, aight mane?
The bread got this pleasure effect I can't explain
But I ain't playin' it's better than sex
So good you can't settle for less
Can't let it to rest
Despite the beef and the federal threats
It starts off with the littlest things
From weed, skittles, to beam
Before you know it you done crippled your dream
They addicted to white
But we addicted to green
Let's keep it real we the wickedest fiends for real
[Chorus: Sevin]
If I could wipe away all your tears
And fight away all the fears you have
I'd try to save the world
But something's missin' my friend
Cuz I'm no different than them
Oh no I'm no Superman
Yeah for real
I wish that I could save the world
I wish that I could save the world
I'm no Superman
[Verse 2: Sevin]
Yeah I used to say I need more than a few chips
I'm trying to be so ballin' my heart can't even get broke
I'm too rich
Started off with a few zips and I can't lie
Most I ever moved at one time was two bricks
Hah, but I still felt like Nino Brown
I could still hear the haters saying “he gon' drownâ€
Huh. I thought bread was my life vest
I just never seen nothin' this priceless
I guess I never thought about the hurt that I caused
Until I seen that little kid die for work that was ours
Huh, and ain't nothin gone take that pain
Ain't no money gone make that change
I gotta take that mane
Huh, I saw myself in his eyes
But bread talked too loud to hear his helpless cries
And that's the cold thing ‘bout greed
Can't help but wonder if one day that's gon' be my seed
[Chorus: Sevin]
If I could wipe away all your tears
And fight away all the fears you have
I'd try to save the world
But something's missin' my friend
Cuz I'm no different than them
No I'm no Superman
Yeah for real
I wish that I could save the world, I do
I'm no Superman
[Verse 3: Sevin]
You might be the type to say
"Mane it's just a little bit of hustlin'"
Look at the pen ain't just a little bit of us in
Tahachapi to Folsom, San Quentin and Riker's
Eight out of ten men locked up act just like us
With the exception of the pedophiles and rapists
Most of ‘em gangsters that been about they paper
Greed's an indiscriminate drug
No love
It's just money women and blood
School system is failing and abandoning kids
Meanwhile these jails just be handlin' biz
Cuz they don't know how to read that well
But they sure know how to read that scale
This is real life
Hang too much on the curb to encourage ‘em to transfer
From servin' to being surgeons
They quick to say we fell through the cracks
But the truth is we black and we fell to the traps
Yeah so we fell to the traps
Sometime's you gotta go through hell to get back
I'd give anything just to bring my relatives back
To beat the system we gotta prevail and adapt
C'mon
[Chorus: Sevin]
If I could wipe away all your tears
And fight away all the fears you have
I'd try to save the world
I'm no Superman
