[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 ***
[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

[02:26.33]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]
