Boys and girls wanna hear a true story?
Saturday night, was at this real wild party,
They had the liquor over flowing the cup,
About five, six stripers tryin to work for a buck
I took one girl outside with me her name was Mina,
She went to junior high with me, I said,
Why you whoppin and dancin for cash, I guess
a whole lots changed since i seen you last

[chorus]

She said
What would you do if your son was at home
Crying all alone on the bedroom floor cause hes hungry
And the only way to feed is to, sleep with a man for a
little bit of money and his daddys gone
So were smoking pot now in and out of lockdown i aint got
a job now,
So for you this is just a good time, but for me this is what i call
LIFE!

Girl, you aint the only one with a baby, but thats no excuse to
be living all crazy,
Then she looked me right square in the eye, and said every day
i wake up hoping to die, She said,
Niggar i know about paycuts, me and my sister ran away so our daddy
couldn't rape us!
Before i was a teenager, i'd of been through more shit, you can't even
relate to!

[Chrous]

Then she said! What would you do?
Get up on my feet and let go of every excuse!
What would you do?
Cuz i wouldnt want my baby to go through what i been through!
What would you do?
Get up on my feet and stop makin tired excuses!
What would you do?
Girl i know if my mother can do it baby you can do it!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

[Chorus]

[Spoken]

What would you do if your son was at home,
Cryin all alone on the bedroom floor cuz hes hungry?
And the only way to feed him is to sleep with a man
for a little bit of money and his daddys gone
So were smokin rock now in and out of lockdown i aint
got a job now! So for you this is just a good time but for
me this is what i call LIFE! Come on!

[Chorus]

missin'! (x6 to fade)
