They Ask Me |
| Ya know, right now, whatever you smoke |
| Right now cuz they ask me, and they ask me And they ask me, they ask me Now they ask me How you know so much at 17 |
| What you mean? |
| You never seen a dysfuctional teen |
| Mama cared for me Papa wasnt there for me Older brother sold dope and murph blurr for me Times got hard I had to get harder |
| Let me take that back I had to get smarter |
| 16, I had me a daughter |
| Hold up J-Kwon lets get shit in order |
| Baby mama thats a whole 'nother story |
| Both too young both too horney |
| Cell phone rung, but I didnt anwser |
| Check my voice mail, my grandma got cancer |
| Now she layin’up in a old folks home |
| When it seamed like yesterday she was home |
| A month later stroke poped up Her brain cells gone |
| The last thing she said was let no one steer you wrong, I’m grown |
| They ask me, do I believe in God |
| So I ask them, did I defeat the odds |
| Shit fucked up but I can’t turn away now |
| Sold dope around the town, self esteem way down |
| Jessie made me tougher, he boxed me up My mama put me in the system, she locked me up Now this around the time that we lived on hanley |
| When I think about it I don’t know none of my family |
| Except, for the immediate ones |
| Thats why I run to the streets and the jennings hand guns |
| He don’t talk much so everybody wanna fight him |
| Every school I went to nobody liked him |
| Never could it be right |
| I’d try sometimes |
| So I chilled by myself and cry sometimes |
| And all I ask from Gods to buy sometime |
| Would I bring his name in it If I was lyin' |
| Now look at what the fuck I did, done |
| Terry Jones last son, this is a blessing |
| I’m grown |
| La, la, la, la, la, la, la Now they ask me how you know so much at 17 |
| What you mean |
| You never seen a dysfuctional teen |
| La, la, la, la, la, la, la, woah |
| Times got har I had to get harder |
| Let me take that back I had to get smarter |
