Lyrics

One seventeen
80's baby
Growing up without a father
Momma raising
Six kids on her own
Had to make her crazy
In and out of foster homes
Needing placement
To young to get a job
So we sold candy
Pumping gas with my older brothers
For extra money
In and out of trouble
Hanging with the homies
Took the wrap for some shit
That I wasn't even doing
Coming up in the hood
Without a steady home
Fighting for blocks
We don't even own
Just got word
My homie ain't coming home
Taking life for granted
For something you don't understand
Can have a chip
On your shoulder
Heavier than granite
Posted up in the hood
Still missing Granny
Rest in paradise
Life wasn't handed
Down to me with
A silver spoon
Trust fund baby's
Get better tools
To work with
When theirs
Better schools
I ain't ask for much
But yea a higher education do
Expand your arising
But you have to
Put time in
Knowledge is power within
No matter what race
Color or skin
Change your approach
And hold ya head up
And say this time
I'm gone do it for me
Not mankind
Now wait and see
What you created
The hate you gave us
Now we far from slaves
But we still struggling
With minimum wages
Can't put food on ya tables
Living above your means
Check by check
Losing sight of the light
Now you're all homeless
It got to better way live
Without out Rats and roaches
In and outside your crib
Police killing young black men
While running
No justice
No peace
Yet we still marching
Most minority go to jail
Because they ain't got money for bail
Money is the key
And the root to evil
At the end of the day
We're all equal
At the end of the day
We're all equal
One seventeen
80's baby
One seventeen
80's baby
One seventeen
80's baby
