I used to dream every night, now I never dream at all | Hopin' that it's cause I'm livin' everything I want | Used to wake up in a bed between my mom…
I used to dream every night, now I never dream at all Hopin' that it's cause I'm livin' everything I want Used to wake up in a bed between my mom and aunt Playing with this Land Before Time toy from Pizza Hut My dad works nights Putting on a stone face He's saving up so we can get our own place In the projects, man that sounds fancy to me They called me fat nose, my mom say you handsome to me Mrs. Glover ma'am, your son is so advanced But he's acting up in class and keeps peeing in his pants And I just wanna fit in, but nobody was helping me out They talking hood shit and I ain't know what that was about Cause hood shit and black shit is super different So I'm talking hood shit and cool it now like New Edition Mom and dad wouldn't listen They left the Bronx so I wouldn't be that All their friends in NY deal crack It's weird, you think that they'd be proud of 'em But when you leave the hood they think that you look down on 'em The truth is we still struggle on a different plane 7 dollars an hour, WIC vouchers, it's all the same Facebook messaging hopin' that could patch up shit But all they get now is, "Can your son read this script?" There's a world we can visit if we go outside Outside, outside We can follow the road There's a world we can visit if we go outside Outside, outside No one knows There's a world we can visit if we go outside Outside, outside We can follow the road There's a world we can visit if we go outside Outside, outside No one knows Yeah Dad lost his job Mama worked at Mrs. Winner's Gun pulled in her face She still made dinner “Donald watch the meter So they don’t turn the lights off" Workin' two jobs so I can get into that white school And I hate it there They all make fun of my clothes and wanna touch my hair And my uncle on that stuff that got my Grandma shook Drug dealers roughed him up and stole his address book He’s supposed to pay ‘em back He owe 'em money but his bank account is zero So my momma made us sleep with Phillips heads under the pillow Like that would do somethin' But she’s got six kids, she’s gotta do somethin' She don’t want me in a lifestyle like my cousin And he mad cause his father ain’t around He lookin’ at me now, like "Why you so fuckin lucky? I had a father too But he ain’t around so I'mma take it out on you" We used to say "I love you" Now we only think that shit It feels weird that you’re the person I took sink baths with Street took you over I want my cousin back The world sayin' what you are because you’re young and black Don’t believe ‘em You’re still that kid that kept the older boys from teasin' For some reason There's a world we can visit if we go outside Outside, outside We can follow the road There's a world we can visit if we go outside Outside, outside No one knows There's a world we can visit if we go outside Outside, outside We can follow the road There's a world we can visit if we go outside Outside, outside No one knows Can you hear me now? Can you hear me now? Oh, help us Lord Oh, baby baby baby
