E-40 - Things'll Never Change Lyrics
Ah yeah..(ah yeah)..its real.Gonna put it down. all these little crime thangs,Homeless, the world is crazy bwoyIts like thisIts the way it isHeavy out there.. its heavy.Verse 1Was I really such a bad child that I deserved to get hit with boardsAnd whooped with extension cords?Did you forget that I was your creation,And all I wanted from you all was love, hope, and motivation?Son, youre disrespectful and youre talking back,Get out my face, kicked me out the houseAnd wouldnt even let me plead my case.Now Im homeless and Im freezing like the morgue,The only thing keepin me alive is the lordNeedless to say its times like this Id rather be locked up thenDrinkin water out my hands and eatin out of garbage cansCan I come back home, huh could i?Son, youre on your own, why should i?ChorusThingsll never change, thats just the way it isNobodys even concernedSome thingsll never change, thats just the way it isWhen will we ever learn?Verse 2Huh. three years from now, I think Im gon be straight, (straight)I put my name on the list for section 8Tried out for the army but I was flat footed,Didnt do no harm to me, cuz I was used to itIf I apply for some work, lets make a bet,Ill get the nineCuz I dont know about the internetWhat do you think we need to do to change about this nation?Need to provide more jobs and better educationNuclear weapons (puh) should be stopping crimes,Already got enough to blow the world upA thousand timesThe birds and the bees, deadly disease,Teenage pregnancies, stdsChorusVerse 3A-wuh a wait a minute, I hear sirensOh thats the couple down the streetDomestic violenceEither them or the little girl in 306Shes always telling everyone that she gon slice her wristsI guess thats the way it is in the life of sinWhere youll prolly end up dead, or in the penBut my family aint no better than the nextMy auntie brenda turned her own sister inFor writing bad checksAnd save folks try to hit you where it hurtsKnowin they the biggest hypocrites in the churchWe need to give our minds a bath andDo some scrubbinStop the hate and start the lovinChorus (4x)
