"NOBODY CAN STOP ME"
BIZZY BONE

What are you goin' through?  What are you goin' through?
...if you only knew, if only you knew.
What are you goin' through?  What are you goin' through?
...if you only knew.  
[Nobody can stop me.  Damn.]
Nobody can stop me, now.  Nobody can stop me, now.
What are you goin' through?  What are you goin' through?
...if you only knew.
[Nobody can stop me.]
What are you goin' through?  What are you goin' through?
...if you only knew, if you only knew.

Look at my sister sadden when my baby's Mammy like she can't stand me, say family be the first to turn so pity (?).  Filamina, my Granny, celebrate the Grammy, damn, nobody knew no plannin' was so perfect, rollin' my (?), never forget the Bones.  Trippin' on foster homes, sayin' I wasn't manly with a scarred up soul, why can't my skeletons understand me?  What if I said I was molested?  Would you look at me?  Peel, but I keep on bailin', and I hope I don't go to Hell, stressed I will.  Can I sell my bio?  I was born in Ohio, already on trial, 'cause Pops said I looked too light, but mom 's just white, but I still had your smile.  And look at me now--gotta be proud of myself, ain't nobody else soundin' so worried about my health.  And all the while takin' care of my kids--how would they live if I ain't hustlin', strugglin', [trustin'] still keepin' Jesus a part of solution.  He gives life in the lungs, breath through tongue, now here it comes.  Now, here it comes; and here we go.

Nobody can stop me, now.  Nobody can stop me, now.  Nobody can stop me, now.  Nobody can stop me, now. . .
If only you knew . . .
What am I goin' through, goin' through, goin' through?

And my Mama took plenty beatings.  Now, in her third damn marriage, and man, actin' like he cares apparently 'till you perish, but I was always there for you even though you let me leave.  He's beatin' the shit outta me, too--probably why I got my bodyguards, and I'm in charge, watch me sleep, the pay is meek, but stay with me, and keep my heart collateral, we'll never break apart.  Y'all didn't see me with Eazy, as a child of god with the underdog, never applaud once you reminisce through the ball.  Movin' in Heaven's movie, y'all, think of all that fucked-up shit you saw, only if you knew what I was goin' through.

What am I goin' through, goin' through, goin' through?
If only you knew . . .
Nobody can stop me, now.  Nobody can stop me, now.  Nobody can stop me, now.  Nobody can stop me, now. . .
If only you knew . . .
What am I goin' through, goin' through, goin' through?

Flashback to May and with the weight of the world can't stop my girl from steppin', lookin' for affection in wrong places, my lesson be learned, world turns, the early bird gets the worm.  What if it's rotten while you rushin' for love and get burned?  Five kids and that's my only concern.  I was a father before I became a man.  Society don't comprehend, callin’ me worthless, but I could purchase what they purchase, but I understand behind closed curtains you workin’ on being a man.  Death scares me, but Jesus will prepare me, and hopefully repair me as God would want him to, really really, ghetto media see the thug, watch your sins, then it's true you can be born again.

What am I goin' through, goin' through, goin' through?
Nobody can stop me, now.  Nobody can stop me, now.   Nobody can stop me, now.  Nobody can stop me, now . . .
