|
No all star cast, no scripts, no budgets |
|
In the soundtrack of my life |
|
Just drugs and violence, sex and cryin' |
|
In the soundtrack of my life |
|
I'm like Halle in Monster's Ball, Jada in Set it Off |
|
In the soundtrack of my life |
|
No special effects, just rep my set |
|
In the soundtrack of my life |
|
Lights, camera, action |
|
[Verse 1:] |
|
3 months away from my first child |
|
I'm standing on a welfare line |
|
Baby daddy went and hit my moms with a metal pan |
|
They fight 'cause he don't treat me right |
|
My faith I'm in is real life but |
|
I can't seem to get that right |
|
Feel like a bum because my gear ain't tight |
|
[Bridge:] |
|
Up late cutting crack for his fiends |
|
Is that why when the feds question me |
|
Oohh when I was young I was really good girl (I used to be really really good girl) |
|
Oohh remember when I had no need for liquor and weed |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Verse 2:] |
|
See the job wasn't making it |
|
Sold weed, I started hustlin' |
|
I smoked more than I sold |
|
Got to get to the studio |
|
And moms don't wanna babysit |
|
She thinks I don't love my kids |
|
Dropped out and got my GED |
|
Cause the pressure was too much for me |
|
[Bridge:] |
|
Up late cutting crack for his fiends |
|
Is that why when the feds question me |
|
Oohh when I was young I was really good girl (I used to listen to my mother) |
|
Oohh remember when I had no need for liquor and weed (I had no need, I had no need) |
|
[Chorus x2] |
