lost struggles
looking at life
&&how things could be
the world filled w/blessings
destiny
&&opportunity
children comin'up in a world of ludacris
they new to this
acting as if they have no clue
mother working
daddy not around
so they're left searching
to fulfil the lonelyness
because what mom was giving
It doesnt seem so true
Dazed and forbidden in the sky
like a bird w/no wings
he doesnt know where to go
or what to do
Being only 16 and in a place of devestation
war.gangs.
&&mama so busy
she cant pay attention to her creation
everyday struggles to survive
our brothers all locked up
&& you have to be in the house at a certain time just to stay alive
from the outside looking in
it doesn't SEEM so bad you would say
but at the end of the day
you can get in your car a drive away
where Im from
you cant dwell upon the future
tomorrow's not promised
In the ghetto
you have to live for T0DAY!
