Now the kids are growing up so fast We don't know what it's for but You know it's never going to last These are different times that we're living in We'll be soldiers for you, mommy and daddy We're soldiers now in the culture war We're soldiers now, but

I need a gangsta To love me better Than all the others do To always forgive me Ride or die with me That's just what gangsters do I'm fucked up, I'm black and blue I'm built for it, all the abuse I got secrets, that nobody, nobody knows

Ain't nobody prayin' for me Ain't nobody prayin' I feel like a chip on my shoulders I feel like I'm losin' my focus I feel like I'm losin' my patience I feel like my thoughts in the basement Feel like, I feel like you're miseducated Feel like I don't

Hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have I've been tearing around in my fucking nightgown 24/7 Sylvia Plath Yeah, I have it I was reading Slim Aarons and I got to thinking that I thought Maybe I'd get less stressed if I was tested less like

I only fuck with you on two occasions When I'm drunk, when I'm high I will be broke, if I would be with you That is why it's for one night (one one one one) I'm a motherfuckin' gang bangin' nightmare Wake up motherfuckers, I traded in my white Nike Airs

But no one needs to know right now I'll tell him someday some way somehow But I'm gonna keep it a secret for now And I'm not lonely anymore at night And he don't know only, only he can make it right Am I dreamin' or stupid? I think I've been hit by cupid

You gon' make me give up everything I worked for Make me give up everything I worked for Sunday, that's what they pray to church for Sunday, you ain't go to church though I still bless you, but you know what come first though You gon' get this Rollie off

What got us here won't get us there We are found in far away places when all seems lost These windy streets tell of a different time It's time for the upright to have insight Don't forget what's important in life This place is like a cage that will

I'm goin' insane, nobody knows All by myself, let the rain hit me Mask up my pain, hold back my tears Yeah, I take another shot Tryna just forget all the negative Devil laughin', meanwhile God explaining the benefits Listen, financial freedom Come and go
