No fairy tales for this young black male
Some see me stranded in this
Land of hell, jail, and crack sales
Though life is hard we carry on
Livin' in the projects
Broke with no lights on
No fairy tales for this young black male
Some see me stranded in this
Land of hell, jail, and crack sales
Though life is hard we carry on
Livin' in the projects
Broke with no lights on
Yo, it's just another day I wake up
It's more rock to break up
We take physical losses and y'all
Just take a pay cut
Plus, you take a mortgage loan
To hold ya home
But our credit is pathetic they
Just let it be known so they evict us
Got some of my sisters livin' in shelters
It's the system, the difference you teach ya
Kids to know better but you can go home
You know ya mom and pop there
Yeah, we can go home but
Our life is out there
Yeah, bills through the roof I'm
Makin' payments every week
Get my money off them books
Cuz ain't nobody hired me
People die in your community
Life is a struggle
Kids dyin' every day cuz they
Be shootin' for the coke
Life through my blood shot eyes
Can be trouble sometimes
I smoke the pain away but still not high
I sip that Henny, say a prayer
After that then I'm good
Just bless the days for all my
People that's raised in the hood
It's our life
No fairy tales for this young black male
Some see me stranded in this
Land of hell, jail, and crack sales
Though life is hard we carry on
Livin' in the projects
Broke with no lights on
No fairy tales for this young black male
Some see me stranded in this
Land of hell, jail, and crack sales
Though life is hard we carry on
Livin' in the projects
Broke with no lights on
And I done traveled the world
Wish you could see what I see
I been through numerous hoods
They livin' just like we
I've seen the wars, seen the struggle
Seen the violence in the street
Seen a hustler get fed up sometimes
And pop back at police
Cuz he couldn' stand to
See himself in penitentiary
Couldn't see those type of
Numbers so it's elementary
See the way I see it's gotta
Be Heaven for a G
Cuz it's hell tryin' to feed ya
Seed and leave a legacy see wrong
See right depends on how you see in life
See justice
She's blind she won't let you see the light
Seen people doin' bad I ain't
The only one that see
Seems like they wanna see us
All in this poverty
See, I'm in the hood they
Buildin' condos every week
Shit, it hurts to live like this
See it's nice across the street
But if you can focus in this life ain't ride
If you can vision what I printed
You'll see life through my eyes let's go
No fairy tales for this young black male
Some see me stranded in this
Land of hell, jail, and crack sales
Though life is hard we carry on
Livin' in the projects
Broke with no lights on
No fairy tales for this young black male
Some see me stranded in this
Land of hell, jail, and crack sales
Though life is hard we carry on
Livin' in the projects
Broke with no lights on
I saw the raids in the hood
Saw a dude take a trip with like
Ten of them thangs in my hood
Even saw a young baller slip
He got hit with a clip
And that dude that took that route
He got hit with like ten
Saw the inside of a cell
Just bums and fiends
Saw the laws of the jails, nigga B's and C's
Got Kings and GD's saw a
Life took for two G's
Saw the dope kill a fiend and
That just brings you more cheese
I saw the block that was worst at it's best
Seen a man play with a gun
And shoot himself in his chest
I' tryin' to write so you can see what he saw
You know life through hs eyes
That be 2Pac Shakur and let's go
No fairy tales for this young black male
Some see me stranded in this
Land of hell, jail, and crack sales
Though life is hard we carry on
Livin' in the projects
Broke with no lights on
No fairy tales for this young black male
Some see me stranded in this
Land of hell, jail, and crack sales
Though life is hard we carry on
Livin' in the projects
Broke with no lights on
