Oh Yeah

Oh Yeah

Oh Yeah

Oh Yeah

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 dope

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
