Been through the storm, through the cold and rain | |
Every thing's still the same | |
Can't control how | |
I feelSometimes it's hard to keep it real | |
You see the luxuries in life, with the fortune and fame | |
Like them | |
Cadillacs with sunroofs mayne | |
So many ways to make a dollar | |
Huh, sometimes | |
I think about my father | |
You see, my poppa was broke, and my momma was young | |
Tryin' to blend in with them city folk | |
Every day landlord knockin' down my do' | |
Wonderin' where my next blessing is comin' from | |
My momma and poppa, moved to the | |
U.S. as Jamaicans | |
Struggled to get visas and green cards through immigration | |
Though my pop was po', stayed away from crime and malice | |
Hard living gave him hard hands and callous | |
As a young and peep how much they loved each other's space | |
His hard hands rubbin, against the pretty skin of my mother's face | |
Dig for treasure 'til his hands looked like hands of a junkie | |
So coarse, slap a mule and take the life from a donkey | |
On the other hand, mommy was the type to work two jobs | |
Never enough money, that's why | |
I got your whole crew robbed | |
Got older, developed ways of grippin' the steel | |
Barely home for me to see her, or get a good cooked meal | |
Seek refuge in the alleged land of the free, lookin' | |
Blendin' in with city folk, down in | |
Flat bush | |
BrooklynFeel a little of my pain, follow and sing to it | |
Homey, I seen it all, if you ain't knowin' | |
I been through it | |
In other words | |
IBeen through the storm, through the cold and rain | |
Every thing's still the same | |
Can't control how | |
I feelSometimes it's hard to keep it real | |
You see the luxuries in life, with the fortune and fame | |
Like them | |
Cadillacs with sunroofs mayne | |
So many ways to make a dollar | |
Huh, sometimes | |
I think about my father | |
You see, my poppa was broke, and my momma was young | |
Tryin' to blend in with them city folk | |
Every day landlord knockin' down my do' | |
Wonderin' where my next blessing is comin' from | |
Got a little older, late teens, me and my crew would huddle | |
On the corner late nights, plottin' to escape struggle | |
Nights got cold and still would hustle in the same place | |
In front of | |
Pancho Delis, now the freeze up on a nigga face1987 | |
Reaganomics ever curious | |
To visit other cities, out of town kick was serious | |
Guyanese jeans bounce, put whatever slinger on | |
Whatever slinger came back, quickly brought me right along | |
Nigga ran away from home, doin' different wild shit | |
Just to put a pair of | |
Filas on, ' | |
Didas onWreck is all for the good, gettin' into shit | |
Like we innocent, actin' older than should | |
Walk around broke in the hood, watchin all the rich niggaz | |
These younger thugs who try to choke and try to get niggaz | |
Thinkin' 'bout my mom and pop, while | |
I'm monopolizin' | |
To hell with just gettin' by and economizin' | |
It's kinda hard bein' humble in the belly of struggle | |
Doin' things that probably get you in trouble | |
That's why we stay up on the block, gettin' money | |
While we keepin' it safe in front of churchgoers keepin' the faith | |
Mom and pop be worryin' for they son, despite they struggle | |
And their honest livin', look and see just what | |
I becomeA scavenger in brute pursuit to be happy, another young and | |
That's wildin' across the line until somebody tryin' to cap me, oh shit | |
I been through the storm, through the cold and rain | |
Everything's still the same, can't control how | |
I feelSometimes it's hard to keep it real | |
Wooh, yeah, oh |
