| [00:10.06] |
Yesterday I |
| [00:14.92] |
And today I'm |
| [00:21.44] |
I ain't I ain't I ain't getting out of bed today |
| [00:24.29] |
9 to 5 to survive theres gotta be a better way |
| [00:27.15] |
Waking up early to punch in the clock |
| [00:29.23] |
How I look a grown man with my lunch in a box |
| [00:31.85] |
But my kids need socks and shoes I'm walking through |
| [00:34.76] |
The office boss yelling "Who you talkin' to " |
| [00:37.16] |
Don't you know on the streets I woulda never mind |
| [00:40.22] |
The past is the past I gotta leave it behind |
| [00:42.51] |
But man back on the block I was a bona fide hustler |
| [00:45.41] |
Spot popping off until the police rushed us |
| [00:47.64] |
Handcuffed us I thought I was gone |
| [00:50.56] |
Coulda cried thinking I'd miss my son being born |
| [00:53.04] |
But I was blessed beat the case now I'm tryna reform |
| [00:55.87] |
But these white folks make it so hard to move on |
| [00:58.61] |
You gotta jump through hoops anger management coups |
| [01:01.31] |
But the fact I'm still standing here today is proof that |
| [01:04.88] |
Yesterday I felt the most hated |
| [01:06.74] |
I thought I couldn't take it they said I couldn't make it |
| [01:09.44] |
And today I'm feelin' brand new |
| [01:12.05] |
I got nothin' to lose I'm 'bout to make moves |
| [01:14.67] |
Yesterday I felt the most hated |
| [01:17.17] |
I thought I couldn't take it I fought until I made it |
| [01:20.24] |
And today I'm feelin' brand new |
| [01:22.55] |
I got nothin' to lose get out my way move |
| [01:25.43] |
On to the next it was all about sex |
| [01:27.89] |
When I first met my little baby girl Anette |
| [01:30.12] |
She was standing at the bus stop sucking on a lolli-pop |
| [01:33.62] |
Eyes collard green lean thicker then a pork chop |
| [01:36.48] |
Stop- cause I don't eat swine |
| [01:38.66] |
But this girl was so divine that I had to make her mine |
| [01:41.43] |
Called her phone a few times she thought I was funny |
| [01:43.96] |
Fell for it like a dummy it was all for the money |
| [01:46.62] |
Gyeah growing up in the hood |
| [01:49.18] |
You would think Id understand but I never understood |
| [01:52.16] |
Why she really came around when my dough wasn't good |
| [01:56.30] |
|
| [01:57.28] |
Now you could call it puppy love 'cause I got dogged out |
| [02:00.07] |
Now on all my note books I got her name crossed out |
| [02:02.65] |
But she lost out I just lost profit when she left me in cold |
| [02:06.89] |
Heart broke like like my pockets and |
| [02:08.69] |
Yesterday I felt the most hated |
| [02:10.60] |
I thought I couldn't take it they said I couldn't make it |
| [02:13.52] |
And today I'm feelin' brand new |
| [02:15.85] |
I got nothin' to lose I'm 'bout to make moves |
| [02:18.25] |
|
| [02:19.04] |
Yesterday I felt the most hated |
| [02:21.19] |
I thought I couldn't take it I fought until I made it |
| [02:24.13] |
And today I'm feelin' brand new |
| [02:26.33] |
I got nothin' to lose get out my way move |
| [02:29.61] |
You know them days you just got the blues |
| [02:31.90] |
All stressed and depressed from just watchin' the news |
| [02:34.54] |
No matter what good you do it seems you always get screwed |
| [02:36.95] |
Got you caught up in your feelings now you off in the mood |
| [02:40.14] |
Shake that attitude and do what you can |
| [02:42.59] |
Set a couple goals follow through with your plans |
| [02:45.25] |
Time waits for no man and tomorrows not promised |
| [02:47.33] |
|
| [02:47.88] |
So if shes still alive shoot a call to your momma |
| [02:50.52] |
'Cause the fighting and the drama its just not worth it |
| [02:53.46] |
Nobody's perfect ain't none of us worthless |
| [02:56.16] |
We all got a place and we all got a purpose |
| [02:58.78] |
Now I'm not taking y'all to Sunday service |
| [03:01.38] |
But ya clap your hands as you stand up and work it |
| [03:04.07] |
Like your grand mama used to do that fan down at worship |
| [03:06.35] |
|
| [03:07.04] |
Spread it pop it and wave it in my face |
| [03:09.45] |
Put your hands around your waist let me ride to the bass like |
| [03:12.18] |
Yesterday I felt the most hated |
| [03:14.58] |
I thought I couldn't take it they said I couldn't make it |
| [03:17.45] |
And today I'm feelin' brand new |
| [03:19.84] |
I got nothin' to lose I'm 'bout to make moves |
| [03:22.50] |
Yesterday I felt the most hated |
| [03:25.22] |
I thought I couldn't take it I fought until I made it |
| [03:28.24] |
And today I'm feelin' brand new |
| [03:30.51] |
I got nothin' to lose get out my way move |
