The Dirt |
| Back in the day they used to call me a criminal |
| Running from the police, hanging with the homies |
| Gun in my waist, getting high off the chemicals |
| I was only 16, kicked out on the streets |
| My mama told me, «If you wanna make it |
| You better figure out your life before they take it» |
| Yeah, my mama told me, «You gotta get smarter |
| Or you’re gonna end up in a cell just like your father» |
| Ooh, lord knows I try so hard |
| Ooh, lord know I’ve come so far |
| Ooh-oh, each time I touch the stars |
| Something always brings me back to earth |
| And I’m back digging in the dirt |
| And I’m back digging in the dirt |
| I’m coming of age and they call it a miracle |
| I’m alive and breathing, there’s gotta be a reason, I’m still here |
| So I pick up the pace, tryna make me some money, oh |
| Come up with a scheme now, a dirty or a clean now, yeah |
| 'Cause my mama tells me, «You better make it |
| If not for yourself, then you should do it for your lady» |
| Yeah, my mama tells me, «You gotta get smarter |
| You’ve got a son and in a month you’ll have a daughter» |
| Ooh, lord knows I try so hard (Yeah) |
| Ooh, lord know I’ve come so far |
| Ooh-oh, each time I touch the stars |
| Something always brings me back to earth |
| And I’m back digging in the dirt |
| And I’m back digging in the dirt |
