Lyrics
0:01Oh Yea
0:03Oh Yea
0:06Oh Yea
0:08Oh Yea
0:11And I heard 'em say
0:13Nothin's ever promised tomorrow today
0:15From the Chi Like Tim it's a Hardaway
0:17Till this is in the name of love like robert say
0:20Before you ask me to go get a job today
0:22Can I at least get a raise on the minimum wage
0:25And I know the government administer aids
0:27So I guess we just pray like the minister say
0:30Abu Akhbar be throwin' some hot cause
0:33Things we seein' on the screen not ours
0:35But these niggas from the hood so these dreams not far
0:37Where I'm from the d**e boys is the rock stars
0:40But they can't cop cars without seein' cop cars
0:42I guess they want us all behind bars I know it uh
0:46And I heard 'em say nothin's ever promised tomorrow today
0:51And I heard 'em say nothin's ever promised tomorrow today
0:56But we'll find a way
0:58And nothin' lasts forever but be honest babe
1:03Hurts but it might be the only way
1:06They say people in your life for seasons
1:08And anything that happen is for a reason
1:10And niggas gun-clappin' and keep to squeezin'
1:13And gran' keep prayin' and keep believin'
1:15In Jesus and one day that she'll see him
1:18Till then in walk his footsteps and try to be him
1:21The devil is alive I feel him breathin'
1:23Claimin' money is the key so keep on dreamin'
1:26And put them lottery tickets just to tease us
1:28My Aunt Pam can't put them cigarettes down
1:30So now my lil' cousin smokin' them cigarettes now
1:33His job try to claim that he too niggerish now
1:35Is it cuz his skin blacker than licorice now
1:38I can't figure it out sick of it now
1:42And I heard 'em say nothin's ever promised tomorrow today
1:47And I heard 'em say nothin's ever promised tomorrow today
1:52But we'll find a way
1:53And nothin' lasts forever but be honest babe
1:58Hurts but it might be the only way
2:04With every worthless word we get more far away
2:09And nothin's ever promised tomorrow today
2:14And nothin lasts forever but be honest babe
2:19Hurts but it may be the only way
2:23Woo woo woo
2:34Woo oh
2:35Ho oh
