Dear Lord
As we down here, struggle for as long as we know
In search of a paradise to touch (my nigga Johnny J)
Dreams are dreams, and reality seems to be the only place to go
The only place for us
I know, try to make the best of bad situations
Seems to be my life's story
Ain't no glory in pain, a soldier's story in vain
And can't nobody live this life for me
It's a ride y'all, a long hard ride
[2Pac]
Somebody break me I'm dreamin, I started as a seed the semen
Swimmin upstream, planted in the womb while screamin
on the top, was my pops, my momma screamin stop
From a single drop, this is what they got
Not to disrespect my peoples but my poppa was a loser
Only plan he had for momma was to fuck her and abuse her
Even as a little seed, I could see his plan for me
Stranded on welfare, another broken family
Now what was I to be, a product of this heated passion
Momma got pregnant, and poppa got a piece of ass
Look how it began, nobody gave a fuck about me
Pistol in my hand, this cruel world can do without me
How can I survive? Got me askin white Jesus
will a nigga live or die, cause the Lord can't see us
in the deep dark clouds of the projects, ain't no sunshine
No sunny days and we only play sometimes
When everybody's sleepin
I open my window jump to the streets and get to creepin
I can live or die, hope I get some money 'fore I'm gone
I'm only 19, I'm tryin to hustle on my own
on the spot where everybody and they pops tryin to slang rocks
I'd rather go to college, but this is where the game stops
Don't get it wrong cause it's always on, from dusk to dawn
You can buy rocks glocks or a herringbone
You can ask my man Ishmael Reed
Keep my nine heated all the time this is how we grind
Meet up at the cemetary then get smoked out, pass the weed nigga
That Hennessey'll keep me keyed nigga
Everywhere I go niggaz holla at me, "Keep it real G"
AndVERSE1:
So ya ready to learn?
Baby I'm here to teach you
Things you've only done in your dreams
Boy you have only touched
The tip of the iceberg
I'll meet you at the other extreme
In a different world,
I'm a different girl
You'll see me in a darker light
More than meets the eye
Come along for the ride
Hold on tight 'cause I just might
CHORUS:
Shock your mama
Shock Shock your mama baby
Shock your mama
Shock Shock your mama baby
Shock your mama
Shock Shock your mama baby
Shock your mama tonight
VERSE2:
You picked me up at eight,
For dinner at nine
Baby where did that hour go?!?
Your mother thinks I'm cool
And everything's fine
Boy the things that she doesn't know
While she's servin dinner I'll be servin' time
Counting minutes 'til we're alone
I've got another menu and I'll show you when you
Give me the time, we'll spill the wine
We're gonna
BREAK:
If anyone thinks we're movin' too fast
Tell the whole world the can kiss my..
CHORUS
RAP: (Oh My!)
I'm not talkin' about your mama
But I'm hoping that if you wanna
We could go on a trip
Would it be hip, baby!?!
We could go to the stars
Venus and Mars
Maybe we could find another kind of love
That's different than ours
Lovin' that knows no boundaries, I found a reason
Love that has no limits
Or no gimmicks or no jealousy within it
Mama don't allow the kind of things that I've been saying'
The games that I've been playin'
The hearts that I've been swaying in my direction
It's heading straight into your heart
And my suggestion is that you better do your part
And don't worry if you shock .... your mama
( And your Daddy too! )
SHOCK BREAK:
Shock it 'til ya drop
I'm gonna shock shock
Shock it baby don't ever stop
VERSE3:
Though I'm all good news in my Sunday shoes
I'm gonna wear you out on Saturday night
So know your f
