Heyyy Better days |
| [00:20.01] |
Got me thinkin bout better days |
| [00:22.51] |
Time to question our lifestyle look how we live |
| [00:25.08] |
Smokin weed like it ain't no thang so even kids |
| [00:27.83] |
Wanna try now they lie down and get ran through |
| [00:30.89] |
Nobody watched 'em clockin the evil man do |
| [00:33.51] |
Faced with the demons addicted to hearin victims screamin |
| [00:36.08] |
Guess we was evil since birth product of cursed semens |
| [00:38.70] |
Cause even our birthdays is cursed days |
| [00:41.47] |
A born thug in the first place the worst ways |
| [00:44.41] |
I'd love to see the block in peace |
| [00:46.41] |
With no more dealers and crooked cops the only way to stop the beast |
| [00:49.84] |
And only we can change |
| [00:51.15] |
It's up to us to clean up the streets it ain't the same |
| [00:54.41] |
Too many murders too many funerals and too many tears |
| [00:56.59] |
Just seen another brother buried plus I knew him for years |
| [00:59.90] |
Passed by his family but what could I say |
| [01:02.16] |
Keep yo' head up and try to keep the faith |
| [01:04.47] |
And pray for better days |
| [01:06.54] |

Got me thinkin bout better days |

Thinkin back as an adolescent who would've guessed |
| [01:28.79] |
That in my future years I'd be stressin |
| [01:30.92] |
Some say the ghetto's sick and corrupted |
| [01:33.23] |
Plus my P O won't let me hang with the brothers I grew up with |
| [01:36.61] |
Tryin to keep my head up and stay strong |
| [01:38.61] |
All my homies slangin llello all day long but they wrong |
| [01:41.80] |
So I'm solo and so broke |
| [01:43.80] |
Savin up for some Jordan's cause they dope |
| [01:46.36] |
I got a girl and I love her but she broke too and so am I |
| [01:49.98] |
I can't take her to the place she wanna go to |
| [01:52.61] |
So we argue and play fight all day and night |
| [01:55.11] |
Makin passionate love 'til the daylight |
| [01:57.42] |
Plus we about to get evicted can't pay the rent |
| [02:00.29] |
Guess it's time to see who really is yo' friend |
| [02:03.23] |
Tell me you pregnant and I'm amazed |
| [02:05.49] |
