The age of Kane and Big Daddy,
Uncles named Larry,

My mother gave birth but

Am
Left to the hood to play daddy

Raised by niggas named Butch,
Scoot or Bae- Bae
With weight so they weigh they
Gm
License plates that say they, motto
This is Chicago in the heyday
Am
Similar to Good Times,
I guess that I was JJ
young girls with Penny figures
stacked upon each other

It's the black upon each
other that we love so much
these drugs gonna touch

Am
Four pounds and pounds of verb
from out of towners

Lost, nobody found us,
the force that surrounds us
Ain't with us,

they get us on the ground and hit us
Am
We paint pictures of the chains under
their names and scriptures
only to return through birth
Am
Knew this girl sellin' her body,
wish she knew what it was worth
Gm
Between God and trash,
Am
lookin' in every car that pass
With a walk that suggests head,
Gm
to milk niggas she was breastfed
Am
She know dairy so she say
cheese to get bread
Gm
In the area where it's more
weaves and less dreads
Kinda scary,
Am
amongst thieves and base- heads
but I could tell her soul hurt
growin' up she got to know hurt
Gm
Very well in a world where self-
hate is overt
Am
Her step- father that he was Ike,
so her mother he strikes
Gm
She got to like like minded niggas,
who liked crimes and figures
Am
Doin' white lines and liquor,
Gm
see hard times had kicked her
In the ass, it used to be thicker
Am
Life is fast, some choose to be quicker
Gm
I remember in high school she
had a passion to sing
Am
Now she see herself in
a casket in dreams
Gm
These are the children of crack and rap,
Blacks that lack
Am
Self- esteem, yo, we forgot the dream
Gm
On our Jefferson's y'all,
but we forgot the theme
Am
In the Chi, we even rootin'
for a garbage team
herself on this corner
Am
She still wanna see California
