| 作词 : Blackman, Lodett | |
| Ah yeah..(ah yeah)..it's real. | |
| Gonna put it down. all these little crime thangs, | |
| Homeless, the world is crazy bwoy | |
| It's like this | |
| It's the way it is | |
| Heavy out there.. it's heavy. | |
| Verse 1 | |
| Was i really such a bad child that i deserved to get hit with boards | |
| And whooped with extension cords? | |
| Did you forget that i was your creation, | |
| And all i wanted from you all was love, hope, and motivation? | |
| Son, you're disrespectful and you're talking back, | |
| Get out my face, kicked me out the house | |
| And wouldn't even let me plead my case. | |
| Now i'm homeless and i'm freezing like the morgue, | |
| The only thing keepin me alive is the lord | |
| Needless to say it's times like this i'd rather be locked up then | |
| Drinkin water out my hands and eatin out of garbage cans | |
| Can i come back home, huh could i? | |
| Son, you're on your own, why should i? | |
| Chorus | |
| Things'll never change, that's just the way it is | |
| Nobody's even concerned | |
| Some things'll never change, that's just the way it is | |
| When will we ever learn? | |
| Verse 2 | |
| Huh. three years from now, i think i'm gon be straight, (straight) | |
| I put my name on the list for section 8 | |
| Tried out for the army but i was flat footed, | |
| Didn't do no harm to me, cuz i was used to it | |
| If i apply for some work, let's make a bet, | |
| I'll get the nine | |
| Cuz i don't know about the internet | |
| What do you think we need to do to change about this nation? | |
| Need to provide more jobs and better education | |
| Nuclear weapons (puh) should be stopping crimes, | |
| Already got enough to blow the world up | |
| A thousand times | |
| The birds and the bees, deadly disease, | |
| Teenage pregnancies, std's | |
| Chorus | |
| Verse 3 | |
| A-wuh a wait a minute, i hear sirens | |
| Oh that's the couple down the street | |
| Domestic violence | |
| Either them or the little girl in 306 | |
| She's always telling everyone that she gon slice her wrists | |
| I guess that's the way it is in the life of sin | |
| Where you'll prolly end up dead, or in the pen | |
| But my family ain't no better than the next | |
| My auntie brenda turned her own sister in | |
| For writing bad checks | |
| And save folks try to hit you where it hurts | |
| Knowin they the biggest hypocrites in the church | |
| We need to give our minds a bath and | |
| Do some scrubbin' | |
| Stop the hate and start the lovin' | |
| Chorus (4x) |
