You’d rather be on those streets Trying to hustle something to eat You blame the womb you came from When all along it’s you that’s acting dumb Your seed needs to be watered You should know how it feels to be dried out Your roots try to revive you But you trampled those too I want to shake you like an earthquake But you prove time after time that it’s just a waste.

You’d rather be on those streets Trying to hustle something to eat You blame the womb you came from When all along it’s you that’s acting dumb Your seed needs to be watered You should know how it feels to be dried out Your roots try to revive you But you trampled those too I want to shake you like an earthquake But you prove time after time that it’s just a waste.
My brother is living on the streets smoking ****** while his beautiful son is being cared for by another man. I’ve tried to help him but he’s not ready to change
