[00:03.91]
[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
[03:26.74] No one knows
[03:31.64] There's a world we can visit if we go outside
[03:34.83] Outside, outside
[03:37.80] We can follow the road
[03:42.19] There's a world we can visit if we go 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]
[00:03.91]
