Hey! I Can Do It Too: Coulda Been

I could of been a different story, Coulda been a different color
Coulda been a different path,Coulda been a different mother
Raising the young man providing him with her cover
Giving the helping hand in the absence of her lover
Coulda been a different school, Coulda been a different college
Coulda been a different brain...Not absorbing the knowledge
That is seen by a different pair eyes, On a different set of scene
With a different set of genes, That never made up me
Coulda been a different man, With a different set of hands
Not holdin the pen, Totin things that go blam
Coulda been a different nigga, Or not a nigga at all
Coulda been a different trigger, Sendin me to my fall
Coulda been a different girl, Or not a girl at all
Could there be a different world, Would it differ at all
From the pain and the smiles of a youngster
Would I feel the pain of livin in a dumpster
Pain from the hunger, Pain from the thirst
A smile for a dime, That I dug up from the dirt
The pride of my eyes, Existing below the earth
The cries from the lies, Being told In the church
A smile for a fortune, A grin at the hurt
Being caused by the people, Livin life as they were
Could there be a different skin, For a group of different men
Livin there lives different, From whats expected of them
