Generate meaning
1
What they gives you blood? Three months man
2
Whatchu doin' in here anyway?
3
You oughta be home with your momma
4
How old are you boy? Thirteen
5
Thirteen? Damn, the bastards must be runnin' outta niggaz to arrest
6
Yeah, oh yeah, this goes out
7
To all the families that went through the struggle
8
(All that I got is you)
9
Yeah, from the heart
10
It was from the heart, everythin' was real
11
(And I'm so thankful I made it through)
12
Yo, dwellin' in the past, flashbacks when I was young
13
Whoever thought that I'd have a baby girl and three sons
14
I'm goin' through this difficult stage, I find it hard to believe
15
Why my old Earth had so many seeds
16
But she's an old woman and due to me I respect that
17
I saw life for what it's really worth and took a step back
18
Family ain't family no more, we used to play ball
19
Eggs after school, eat grits 'cause we was poor
20
Grab the pliers for the channel, fix the hanger on the TV
21
Rockin' each others pants to school wasn't easy
22
We survived winters, snotty nosed with no coats
23
We kept it real, but the older brother still had jokes
24
Sadly, daddy left me at the age of six
25
I didn't know nothin' but mommy neatly packed his shit
26
She cried, and grandma held the family down
27
I guess mommy wasn't strong enough, she just went down
28
Check it, fifteen of us in a three bedroom apartment
29
Roaches everywhere, cousins and aunts was there
30
Four in the bed, two at the foot, two at the head
31
I didn't like to sleep with Jon-Jon, he peed the bed
32
Seven o'clock, pluckin' roaches out the cereal box
33
Some shared the same spoon watchin' Saturday cartoons
34
Sugar water was our thing, every meal was no thrill
35
In the summer, free lunch held us down like steel
36
And there was days I had to go to Tex house with a note
37
Statin', "Gloria can I borrow some food ? I'm dead broke"
38
So embarrasin' I couldn't stand to knock on they door
39
My friends might be laughin', I spent stamps in stores
40
Mommy, where's the toilet paper? Use the newspaper
41
Look Miss Rose gave us a couch, she's the neighbor
42
Things was deep, my whole youth was sharper than cleats
43
Two brothers with muscular dystrophy, it killed me
44
But I remember this, mom's would lick her finger tips
45
To wipe the cold out my eye before school with her spit
46
Case worker had her runnin' back to face to face
47
I caught a case, housin' tried to throw us out of our place
48
Sometimes I look up at the stars and analyze the sky
49
And ask myself was I meant to be here, why?
50
Yeah, yo
51
All that I got is you
52
And I'm so thankful I made it through
53
All that I got is you
54
And I'm so thankful I made it through
55
All that I got is you
56
And I'm so thankful I made it through
57
All that I got is you
58
And I'm so thankful I made it through
59
I sit and think about all the times we did without bread
60
I always said I wouldn't cry when I saw tears in your eyes
61
I understand that daddy's not here now
62
But some way or somehow I will always be around, yeah
63
All things that I did from this to that
64
Oh, from drugs to bein' there
65
Bein' down and out and I love you always, oh
66
Yeah, you see, you see the universe
67
Which consists of the sun moon and star
68
And them planets that exist in my space
69
Like man woman and child, you understand?
70
We got to keep it real and what reality and
71
Reality will keep it real with us
72
I remember them good old days
73
Because see, that's the child I was
74
What made me the man I am today
75
See 'cause if you forget where you come from
76
You're never gonna make it where you're goin'
77
Because you lost the reality of yourself
78
So take one stroll through your mind and see what you will find
79
And you'll see a whole universe all over again
80
And again and again and again and again, yeah
