[00:00.00] 作曲 : Anthony, Hughes, Kent, Tisdale ...
[00:11.13] All my life been po' but it really don't matter no mo'
[00:16.33] And they wonder why we act this way,
[00:19.27] Nappy Boys gon' be okay
[00:22.27] All my life been po' but it really don't matter no mo'
[00:27.55] And they wonder why we act this way,
[00:30.29] Nappy Roots gon' be okay, okay
[00:33.96] We came in the game, plain ya see
[00:36.53] Average man when the rest was ashamed to be
[00:39.28] Nappy head and all, ain't no changin' me
[00:44.66] So rough it was, downright wrong
[00:47.13] I tell yaNobody never gave us nothin' but tough time and made us somethin'
[00:50.54] Different stretch of road, new somethin' to see
[00:53.34] Every state on the map, a different somethin' to eat
[00:56.00] Daps and handshakes, it meant nuttin' for real
[00:58.66] Everybody makin' a killin' man, showin' no feelin's
[01:01.52] Walkin' off collectin' pay, it's the way of the world
[01:04.39] Can't change it, so
[01:05.04] I guess I'm gon' pray for the world
[01:07.04] Sometimes
[01:07.68] I ask myself, was
[01:08.93] I made for the world?
[01:10.27] I scream this to you, and
[01:11.53] I say it to the world
[01:13.02] Nappy then,
[01:14.07] Nappy now,
[01:14.98] Nappy for a bit
[01:15.83] Knee-deep, head over heels in this country shit
[01:18.03] All my life been po', but it really don't matter no mo'
[01:20.54] And they wonder why we act this way,
[01:26.09] Nappy Boys gon' be okay
[01:29.06] All my life been po', but it really don't matter no mo'
[01:34.26] And they wonder why we act this way,
[01:37.13] Nappy Roots gon' be okay, okay
[01:40.32] Even though
[01:40.73] I picture better days
[01:41.79] I'm thankful for the chance
[01:42.65] I got to say amen
[01:43.90] The Lord done blessed me with his grace
[01:45.10] I wish this day would never end
[01:46.63] We represent the slums, where we from, we feel they bump
[01:49.23] Polish shot off on these presidents, and hard times they go and come
[01:52.30] Some take up off, without the chance, to make it at all
[01:54.58] Who woulda thought skinny'd be the one that's, makin' this call
[01:57.41] Lord, help me out, tell me where
[01:59.19] I went wrong
[01:59.88] I'm tryna find a righteous path, although it's, never been long
[02:03.10] I gotta do it for my sons, they tellin' me, daddy be strong
[02:05.60] We gon' make it through these hard times
[02:07.62] Even though they go and they come
[02:08.90] Ya absolutely right, for somethin' happen to me on last
[02:10.94] Tuesday night
[02:11.44] It's plain as day, man they with this world trade
[02:14.19] Naw brave any order but confoldure
[02:15.98] Better make it home when nothin' seems to matter
[02:18.09] That's when, see, everything can go any which way
[02:20.50] They got me fooled, see the henny with the
[02:22.04] JFront porch, chillin' broke, country folk, man
[02:24.37] I'm Nappy with my ways yo
[02:25.43] All my life been po', but it really don't matter no mo'
[02:30.00] And they wonder why we act this way,
[02:33.01] Nappy Boys gon' be okay

[02:41.08] And they wonder why we act this way,
[02:44.18] Nappy Roots gon' be okay, okay
[02:47.40] It's a blessin' we woke up this mornin'
[02:49.79] All my colored folk stressin', come let's join hands
[02:52.12] Got the folk with depresses of being po' man
[02:55.04] Poppa taught me an order, survive for no man
[02:57.91] Nappy got some from the roots for we gon' stand
[03:01.03] Prophit grew from a juvenile to a grown man
[03:03.78] Ya gotta take responsibility for ya own man
[03:06.45] Zonin', two blunts a mo'nin, by sunrise sometimes
[03:10.64] I love to hear my woman moanin', it's on again
[03:13.28] Damn I hope you play this song again
[03:15.58] The soul cleansin', the melody just read my end
[03:18.26] Not a lot of things but usually just appendin' my lady
[03:21.03] Been searchin' bendin' and saw my folks locked in the tenants
[03:23.96] And it don't make any sense why children and sentencin'
[03:26.90] Broadcastin' from the slums, that's why
[03:28.34] I'm writin' these sentences
[03:29.57] Just lower my income, what though we ain't finish it
[03:32.28] All my life been po', but it really don't matter no mo'
[03:36.87] And they wonder why we act this way,
