i had to sing it to feel it

Two hearts


Lord

Ohhhhhhhhhhh.

Why??????

Trying to make two g’s offa scratch off
Seee
We be hustling since
We could walk on feet
Since we were babies
We trying to snatch
Pennies
Ohhhhh.
How tides turn and I try to figure out
How a young girl turned out

And she trapped in the game
Yeah
And young boys got street fame
See

We grow to get money and rewards
Some children get money for report cards
Now I’m trying to steady get ends
My friends???
I often neglect
All for the dollar you see
It just does something for me
What it is I can’t see
How I used to be about a dream
Now it all seems

To be bout cash
And trying to get something
That doesn’t give me joy
Its only pain if I don’t gain

See……

It’s like im in jail
All this to propel
But I can’t flyyyyy.
Lord why dey do me like dat
Im just to scrap
A little for a rainy day
Why it rained today
Before I could save
I was just tyring to hold on till I get paid

I wanna know
I wanna know
I wanna know
I I I

Wanna know
Tellll me why

Tell me, tell me, tell me
Ohhh
Yeah, yeah can somebody tell me
How
To get paid today

That’s all I want for Christmas
My birthday
A raise at work
The loans I gave
Paid back
Yeah….
