Heard 'Em Say (Explicit)

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