Things'll Never Change (feat. Bo-Rock)

Lyrics

Ah yeah
 It's real
 Gonna put it down
 All these little crime thangs
 Homeless the world is crazy boy
 It's like this
 It's the way it is
 Heavy out there, it's heavy
 Was I really such a bad child that I deserved to get hit with boards
 And whooped with extension cords?
 Did you forget that I was your creation
 And all I wanted from you all was love hope and motivation?
 Son, you're disrespectful and you're talking back, get out my face
 Kicked me out the house and wouldn't even let me plead my case
 Now, I'm homeless and I'm freezing like the morgue
 The only thing keeping me alive is the Lord
 Needless to say it's times like this I'd rather be locked up then
 Drinkin' water out my hands and eatin' out of garbage cans
 Can I come back home, huh could I?
 Son, you're on your own, why should I?
 Some things'll never change, that's just the way it is
 Nobody's even concerned
 Some things'll never change, that's just the way it is
 When will we ever learn?
 Huh, three years from now, I think I'm gon be straight
 I put my name on the list for section 8
 Tried out for the army but I was flat footed
 Didn't do no harm to me, 'cuz I was used to it
 If I apply for some work, let's make a bet
 I'll get the nine 'cuz I don't know about the Internet
 What do you think we need to do to change about this nation?
 Need to provide more jobs and better education
 Nuclear weapons, puh, should be stopping crimes
 Already got enough to blow the world up a thousand times
 The birds and the bees, deadly disease
 Teenage pregnancies, STDs
 Some things'll never change, that's just the way it is
 Nobody's even concerned
 Some things'll never change, that's just the way it is
 When will we ever learn?
 A wait, a wait a minute, I hear sirens
 Oh, that's the couple down the street
 Domestic violence either them or the little girl in 306
 She's always telling everyone that she gon slice her wrists
 I guess that's the way it is in the life of sin
 Where you'll prolly end up dead, or in the pen
 But my family ain't no better than the next
 My auntie Brenda turned her own sister in for writing bad checks
 And save folks try to hit you where it hurts
 Knowin' they the biggest hypocrites in the church
 We need to give our minds a bath and do some scrubbin'
 Stop the hate and start the lovin'
 Some things'll never change, that's just the way it is
 Nobody's even concerned
 Some things'll never change, that's just the way it is
 When will we ever learn?
 Some things'll never change, that's just the way it is
 Nobody's even concerned
 Some things'll never change, that's just the way it is
 When will we ever learn?
 Learn, learn, learn, learn
