The only way to change me is maybe blow my brains out Stuck in the middle of the game to get the pain out Pray to my God everyday but he don't listen The poverty bothers me but mama's working wonders in the kitchen Listen, I can hear her crying in the bedroom Praying for money we never think would she be dead soon? Am I wrong for wishing I was somewhere else? At 13 can't feed myself Can I blame daddy 'cause he left me? Wish he would've helped me Too much like him 'til my mama don't love me On my own at a early age getting paid And I'm strapped so I'll never be afraid Where did I go astray I'm hanging in the back streets? Running with G's and **** fiends will they jack me?
