And i could baraly find a, dollar for a token
Hop in the train just to get where im goin
Popos after me and runnin like im smokin
Remember those days when i went to bed hungry
All i ever ate was white rice and honey
Big dreams in my head
Empty in my tummy
Might crack a smile but
Aint nothin funny
I remember playin over needles in the street
Everywhere i go a man wants some part of me
Dirty dirty hookers and hoes on eleventh avenue
Selling bodies for dope
I remember crying saying that will never be me
Gonna make it someday gotta be somebody
Mommy don't worry

But one day we will get out of this misery
