growin up i brought up myself/
nobody there to catch my wealth/
lonesome had to move myself/
had to find my way through/
lil youngin but the stage grew/
people talke but they don't know what i've been through/
having a step-dad that beats your mom/
when you come home to see your peeeps are gone/
specially your mom, tells you she loves you and your her center/
when her boyfriend gets drunk you try to defend her/
but i haven't seen her since i can remember/
age ten moved past that shit/
slanged and banged just to get a lick/
police turned the corner know i hit foot/
die ti survive that's what it took/
goin in and out of juvenile/
i was hot by the police like the news child/
no shit passed me/
get fucked up you tryed to ask me/
a cold game like it was nasty/
a roll game like it was his last beat/
now i'm stryin to get some fresh air/
as i walk i get a fresh stare?
black,red,yellow,blue, get shot at for the clothes you wear/
trin to help someone else but you conceded/
look down at your hand they bleedin'/
bloo from the mutha fucka your momma got beated/
thanks mom for leavin/
another thanks for believen/
my dad was real help/
choked my ass for the way i felt/
so i turned to hustlin as a 9-5
trust me homie lifes worth stayin'alive |
