You was raised off welfare, nursing on focused hope Pops left, young age, mom got her shoulder rope Mom can't do that, mom's drunk off dope Cold water bath, tic tac sized soaps Sis' got pregnant, when she was young Out here trickin' making you watch her son Stolen cable BET stay on the screen Never a dull moment, mom fight with other fiends The happiest moment when you sleep and you dream Then you wake up to the same old thing Cereal no milk, dishes in the sink Older brother runnin' 'round, gettin' money, wearing mink Won't buy nothin' to eat, always buy drinks Get the whole house drunk, then shit pop off Momma boyfriend trippin' 'bout a dime got lost Mind is lost, smoke a blunt, try to do (law?) Seem fit to sell drugs, but you just too soft Hard times at school because your peer is off Too many roaches, might see a mouse Extension cords get power from the neighbor's house Got two pair of jeans, dead air, one's Brother old coke square smoke in your lungs The man of the house but your momma youngest son Back to the wall, face to the wind Ma's scratch the last of the number but don't win Sister disappearing always leaving her kids Tired of ramen noodles, you can see your ribs Lot of sugar in the Kool-Aid keep your thirst quenched Cigarettes and weed, make your eyes squint Fridge empty, nothin' in the cabinet but spinach And you ain't Popeye, livin' in a crowded house Space heater keeps you warm, while you sleep on the couch Bridge card every first, keep food in your mouth Unless your mom sell 'em for drugs, and then you know That month, shit gon' be fucked up So you go to school, for the free lunch and stuff But niggas teasing like you some type of punk and stuff So you got kicked out for punching and stuff Headaches at night, and your stomach is growling Crack smoke in the air and the wolves is howling ...eviction notice on the door ...niggas sleepin' on the floor ...you can't take it no more Just listen you can make it out Just look at what's around you take a different route If you don't have a dream, how could it come true?
