| [00:59.14] |
Couldn't cope wit the changes |
| [01:00.89] |
We went back to the hood |
| [01:02.53] |

Go find you a better man |
| [02:23.33] |
And go have that baby boy |
| [02:24.90] |
And make him a better man |
| [02:26.54] |
Tell him his mother loves him |
| [02:28.66] |
Just like she used to love me |
| [02:30.30] |
And play him this tape for you |
| [02:32.00] |
Tell him what we been through |
| [02:33.78] |
So we can both raise that child like we promised, we would do |
