[00:15.16] | I used to dream every night, now I never dream at all |
[00:26.13] | I'm hopin' that it's cause I'm livin' everything I want |
[00:28.58] | I used to wake up in a bed between my mom and aunt |
[00:31.88] | Playing with this Land Before Time toy from Pizza Hut |
[00:34.23] | My dad works nights, putting on a stone face |
[00:36.79] | He's saving up so we can get our own place |
[00:39.82] | In the projects, man that sounds fancy to me |
[00:42.48] | They called me fat nose, my mom say you handsome to me |
[00:45.15] | Mrs. Glover ma'am, your son is so advanced |
[00:47.59] | But he's acting up in class and keeps peeing in his pants |
[00:49.69] | And I just wanna fit in, but nobody was helping me out |
[00:53.27] | They talking hood shit and I ain't know what that was about |
[00:56.32] | Cause hood shit and black shit is super different |
[00:58.68] | So I'm talking hood shit and cool it now like New Edition |
[01:01.29] | Mom and dad wouldn't listen |
[01:02.59] | They left the Bronx so I wouldn't be that |
[01:04.78] | All their friends in NY deal crack |
[01:07.19] | It's weird, you think that they'd be proud of 'em |
[01:10.13] | But when you leave the hood they think that you look down on 'em |
[01:12.62] | The truth is we still struggle on a different plane |
[01:15.31] | 7 dollars an hour, WIC vouchers, it's all the same |
[01:18.30] | Facebook messaging hopin' that could patch up shit |
[01:21.09] | But all they get now is, |
[01:22.80] | "Can your son read this script?" |
[01:23.89] | There's a world we can visit if we go outside |
[01:26.21] | Outside, outside |
[01:29.11] | We can follow the road |
[01:33.05] | There's a world we can visit if we go outside |
[01:37.07] | Outside, outside |
[01:40.05] | No one knows |
[01:45.04] | There's a world we can visit if we go outside |
[01:48.03] | Outside, outside |
[01:50.90] | We can follow the road |
[01:54.17] | There's a world we can visit if we go outside |
[01:58.72] | Outside, outside |
[02:01.92] | No one knows |
[02:07.26] | Yeah |
[02:08.40] | Dad lost his job, mama worked at Mrs. Winner's |
[02:13.02] | Gun pulled in her face, she still made dinner |
[02:15.59] | “Donald watch the meter so they don’t turn the lights off" |
[02:18.34] | Workin' two jobs so I can get into that white school |
[02:20.83] | And I hate it there |
[02:22.56] | They all make fun of my clothes and wanna touch my hair |
[02:25.07] | And my uncle on that stuff that got my grandma shook |
[02:27.96] | Drug dealers roughed him up and stole his address book |
[02:30.62] | He’s supposed to pay ‘em back |
[02:32.27] | He owe 'em money but his bank account is zero |
[02:34.47] | So my momma made us sleep with Phillips heads under the pillow |
[02:37.06] | Like that would do somethin' |
[02:39.00] | But she’s got six kids, she’s gotta do somethin' |
[02:41.45] | She don’t want me in a lifestyle like my cousin |
[02:44.00] | And he mad cause his father ain’t around |
[02:46.61] | He lookin’ at me now, like |
[02:48.45] | "Why you so fuckin lucky? I had a father too |
[02:51.78] | But he ain’t around so I'mma take it out on you" |
[02:53.88] | We used to say "I love you," now we only think that shit |
[02:56.67] | It feels weird that you’re the person I took sink baths with |
[02:59.47] | Street took you over, I want my cousin back |
[03:01.93] | The world sayin' what you are because you’re young and black |
[03:04.75] | Don’t believe ‘em |
[03:06.46] | You’re still that kid who kept the older boys from teasin' |
[03:08.75] | For some reason |
[03:10.68] | There's a world we can visit if we go outside |
[03:13.13] | Outside, outside |
[03:16.01] | We can follow the road |
[03:19.56] | There's a world we can visit if we go outside |
[03:23.74] | Outside, outside |

[03:45.73] | Outside, outside |
[03:48.85] | No one knows |
[03:58.86] | Can you hear me now? |
[04:00.80] | Can you hear me now? |
[04:06.30] | Oh, help us Lord |
[04:10.98] | Oh, baby baby baby |
[04:16.68] |
