It's a Discription

[Verse]

You was raised off welfare, nursing on Focus: 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?

Take a look at me, look what I've been through
