| Just in case you was wondering
|
| I did make the beat
|
| Yeah, cause we just (children of the world)
|
| And they wonder why we bang
|
| Cause police do the same, that’s the only rival gang
|
| I’m just sitting here, praying to my father
|
| Tired of today, forever scared of tomorrow
|
| Where’s a scale I could borrow?
|
| Cause living ain’t cheap
|
| I dropped out of school, pops, cause college ain’t free
|
| Plus college ain’t me
|
| Sitting in the class
|
| Questions rushing in my brain but I’m too proud to ask
|
| Take it all in stride, teacher talking physics
|
| And I just want to be fly
|
| What good is a degree when there’s no jobs to apply?
|
| And fast food won’t do cause you overqualified
|
| I’m feeling like hustling
|
| Tired of the foodstamps and budgeting
|
| Running in so much work, we school-bus it in
|
| God and our wrist the only things we be trusting in
|
| All else fails, I’m in a casket like fuck it then
|
| Either get rich or die poor
|
| Nigga fell short and got jammed, but he tried though
|
| I’m pretty sure my first words were «survival»
|
| Looking for the answers to my problems in the Bible
|
| Cause we just (children of the world)
|
| Try and decode all the secrets
|
| My conversations with God always seem leave him speechless
|
| And even when I was at my worst like «we got to make this work»
|
| My girl found time to leave me
|
| Too broke to give a fuck, though
|
| My past relationships got me like «What up, ho?»
|
| I’m just bitter, I ain’t asking what you fuck for
|
| Thats disrespectful, I admit
|
| I was just saying, if you wonder why I call you «bitch»
|
| Cause we just (children of the world)
|
| Guess I look up to the pimps
|
| I ain’t saying it wasn’t wrong, but they had the freshest fits
|
| The cars and the broads and the kicks
|
| Is something to strive for when you ain’t never had shit
|
| I’m feeling like what the fuck
|
| They want my soul like my ancestors' ain’t enough
|
| If I can’t trust my own government, who can I trust?
|
| If I abuse myself daily, who can I love?
|
| Shorty might have AIDS like who can I fuck?
|
| Sure enough that’ll be the day that the rubber bust or I have a kid
|
| Deprived of all the things that my father did
|
| Cause the momma was a groupie and I was on some rapper shit
|
| They gave me Hell like I asked for it
|
| Signing everything under the sun but they ain’t after K.R.I.T
|
| I guess I didn’t swag enough
|
| Stupid fruity pebble chain, Louis bag enough
|
| Popping tags, model bitches, couldn’t brag enough
|
| Bubba Kushy stupid loud pack, jet lag enough
|
| Steady acting like I ain’t had enough
|
| Ten chains on your neck like you ain’t flash enough
|
| I wreck so many times, I guess I ain’t crash enough
|
| On the track like a pusher of crack, bag it up
|
| I tell these niggas to back it up
|
| My bitch like scarves, gave the Louis rag to her
|
| 'Sace shades on my eyes like I ain’t seeing the hate
|
| Too fresh to death, I couldn’t attend the wake
|
| That’s too lyrical, he been round busting
|
| Mississippi where? |
| He don’t sound Southern
|
| He be down cousin it’s since '05, I swear
|
| The game’s a pound of Reggie
|
| So anything I sell’s a breath of fresh air
|
| Yeah, fuck with me |
