(with Ghostface Killah)

Intro:
3
Yeah, ohh yeah, this one goes out,
4
To all the families that went through the struggle,
5
Yeah, from the heart, it was from the heart, everything was real
6
Yo, dwelling in the past, flash back when I was young
7
Who ever thought that I would have a beby girl and 3 sons
8
I'm going through this difficult stage I find it hard
9
To believe why my old earth had so many seeds
10
But she's an old woman and do to me I respect that
11
I saw life for what it's really worth and took a step back
12
Family ain't family no more, we used to play ball
13
Eggs after school, eat gritz cause we were poor
14
Grab the plyers for the channel, fix the hanger on the T. V.
15
Rockin each others pants to school wasn't easy
16
We survived winters snauty nose with no coats
17
We kept it real but the older brother still had a joke
18
Sadly daddy left me at the age of six
19
I didn't know nutin' but mommy neatly packed his shit
20
She cried, and grandma held the family down
21
I guess mommy wasn't strong enough, she just went straight down
22
Check it, 15 of us in a three bedroom apartment
23
Roaches everywhere causons and aunts were there.
24
4 in the bed, 2 at the foot, 2 at the head
25
I didn't like to sleep with Jon-Jon, he peed the bed
26
Pluckin roaches out the cereal box
27
We shared the epoon, watchin saturday cartoons
28
Sugar water was our thing, everymeal was no thrill
29
In the summer school lunch held us down like steel
30
And there was days I had to go to Shea's house with a note
31
"Shea and Gloria can I borrow some food I'm dead broke"
32
So embarrasin I couldn't stand to knock on the door
33
My friends might be laughin, I spent stamps in stores
34
Mommy where's the toilet paper, use the newspaper
35
Look Ms. Rose bought us a couch, she's the neighbor
36
2 brothers who must led this defeat kiiled me
37
But I remember this mom's would lick her finger tips
38
To wipe the cold out of my eye before school wit her spit
39
Case worker had her runnin back for face to face
40
I caught a case worker, trying to throw us out our place.
41
Sometimes I'm lookin back and analyze the sky,
42
Goodnight
43
Outro
44
Sometime I'm lookin back and analyze the sky
45
Let myself rock wasn't meant to be so hard
46
Mary J. Blige: [Chorus:]
47
All that I got is you
48
And I'm so thankful I made it through
49
(3x)
50
I sit and think about all the times we did without rain
51
I always said I wouldn't cry, when I saw tears in your eyes
52
I understand that daddy's not here know,
53
But some way or some how, I will always be around
54
All the things that I did from yesterday
55
Oh from drugs to being bad
