Lyrics
I SPEAKS FOR THOSE WITH NO VOICE
THOSE WITH NO CHOICE BORN IN THE GHETTO
LOOKED UPON FROM THE GET GO AS A FAILURE
WHAT THEY AIN'T TELL YA
TEACHERS WANNA FAIL YA DON'T IT SOUND FAMILAR
STREETS POURIN BULLETS AHH WHERE'S YOUR UMBRELLA
MAMA GOT TO BAIL YA COPS WANNA NAIL YA OHHH
I GET LOCKED UP CAUSE OF DRUG PARAPHERNALIA
WAIVE GOODBYE SEA SICK AWAY THEY SAIL YA
BATTER UP THREE STRIKES READ THE LETTERS I MAIL YA
RAPPERS FANTASIZE YOUR LIFE NORTH AMERICA SELL YA
THE NEXT GENERATION MAN THEY WANNA TRAIL YA
NO FUNDS IN EDUCATION SO WE CAN'T SPELL YA'LL
NOTHIN LIKE HAVING TWO PARENTS IN A HOUSEHOLD
LOVE KEEP YOU WARM WHEVER THE HOUSE COLD
FATHER FIGURES YOU GOT A SON TO MOLD
NOTHIN LIKE KEEPIN HIM FED GIVE HIM CASH TO FOLD
BE THERE TO SUPPORT HIM NO MATTER HOW OLD
OR IT'S A ANOTHER HOOD FAILURE TO THE MANY UNTOLD
LOST MY MAMA 97 WAS THE YEAR
I BE LOOKIN FOR HER AT THE BOTTOM OF A BEER
WE GON BE TOGETHER SOON CAUSE DEATH IS NEAR
