Intro Yeah, ohh yeah, this one goes out, to all the families that went through the struggle, yeah, from the heart, it was from the heart, everything was real
verse 1 yo, dwelling in the past, flash back when I was young who ever thought that I would have a beby girl and 3 sons I'm going through this difficult stage I find it hard to believe why my old earth had so many seeds but she's an old woman and do to me I respect that I saw life for what its really worth and took a step back family ain't family no more, we used to play ball eggs after school, eat gritz cause we were poop grab the plirs for the channel, fix the hanger on the T.V. rockin each others pants to school wasn't easy we survived winters snauty nose with no coats we kept it real but the older brother still had a joke sadly daddy left me at the age of six I didn't know notin' but mommy neatly packed his shit she cried, and grandma held the family down I guess mommy wasn't strong enough, she just went straight down check it, 15 of us in a three bedroom apartment roaches everywhere causons and aunts were there. 4 in the bed, 2 at the foot, 2 at the head I didn't like to sleep with jon-jon he peed the bed pluckin roaches out the cereal box we shared the epoon, watchin saturday cartoons sugar water was our thing, everymeal was no thrill in the summer one lunch held us down like steel and there was days I had to go to shea's house with a note "shea and gloria can I borrow some food I'm dead broke" so embarrasin I couldn't stand to knock on the door my friends might be laughin, I spent stamps in stores mommy wheres the toilet paper, use the newspaper look ms. Rose bought us a coach, shes the neighbor 2 brothers who must led this defeat kiiled me but I remember this mom's would lick her finger tips to wipe the cold out of my eye before school wit her spit case worker had her runnin back for face to face I caught a case worker, trying to throw us out our place. sometimes I'm lookin back and analyze the sky, goodnight
outro sometime I'm lookin back and analyze the sky let myself rock wasn't meant to be so hard
mary j All that I got is you chorus And I'm so thankful I made it through 3x
I can't think, about all the times we did without rain I always said I woudn't cry, when I saw tears in your eyes I understand that daddies not here know, but some way some how, I will always be around All things that I did from yesterday oh from drunk to being there being down and out and I love you always.
