《Life As A Shorty》歌词

[00:00:00] Life As A Shorty (Explicit) - Fashawn/J. Mitchell

[00:00:31] Remember livin' in a trailer

[00:00:32] Cookin' dinner out a crockpot or we would microwave it

[00:00:35] Basic television same seven stations

[00:00:38] On a twelve-inch I had to watch cable at the neighbors

[00:00:41] Didn't know how broke we was 'til I got older

[00:00:43] Never knew I had a father until he showed up

[00:00:46] Out the blue tryin' to get back wit mama

[00:00:48] Stepdad walks in now here comes the drama

[00:00:51] Had a couple of 'em to be honest

[00:00:53] Like William Scott they would always take me shoppin'

[00:00:56] Ralphie and mark they would take me to the doctor

[00:00:58] I call 'em all daddy even though they didn't have me

[00:01:01] Kids used to make fun of my clothes

[00:01:03] 'Til one of 'em got punched in the nose

[00:01:06] Kinda like I was forced to be tough

[00:01:08] Life as a shorty shouldn't be so rough but hey

[00:01:11] Even though I'm young and I can't see

[00:01:17] The forest from the trees follow me

[00:01:21] And when I'm grown you know I'm bound to be

[00:01:27] The HNIC follow me

[00:01:32] Mama I'll be alright just let me do my thing

[00:01:37] Following my dreams this is me

[00:01:41] First fight third grade I was swingin' from the shoulders

[00:01:43] With this kid named Dariah he was three years older

[00:01:46] And like two feet taller I finished it he started it

[00:01:49] All over this chick named Barbara Johnson

[00:01:51] Nonsense I thought once the principal came

[00:01:53] That fat lip really put a dent in my game

[00:01:56] Never in my life have I felt such pain

[00:01:59] Got sent home but I held my own

[00:02:01] Slept in every morning it was like a vacation

[00:02:04] How'd I make it to sixth grade graduation

[00:02:06] Cause I was always ditchin' hung around with some misfits

[00:02:08] With add and they all smoked **

[00:02:11] Never read a piece of literature wasn't good listeners

[00:02:14] Never paid attention so they hung 'round me

[00:02:17] While my parents was out in the streets

[00:02:19] I built my world on a blank sheet just thinkin' in myself

[00:02:22] Even though I'm young and I can't see

[00:02:28] The forest from the trees follow me

[00:02:32] And when I'm grown you know I'm bound to be

[00:02:38] The HNIC follow me

[00:02:41] Check it out hard to forget all the time I would spend

[00:02:44] With my first f**k even had me dodgin' my friends

[00:02:47] Wore my heart on my sleeve at the age of fifteen

[00:02:49] She would tell me that she loved me it was all just pretend

[00:02:52] She cheated on me so it quickly came to an end

[00:02:54] She put the blame on him got played I'll admit that

[00:02:57] Hangin' with my friends never called her again

[00:02:59] Five years later heard she had a kid damn

[00:03:02] I guess time flies when you're havin' fun

[00:03:05] So enjoy life you only get one

[00:03:07] I love my childhood despite the gunfire

[00:03:10] I was quite happy growin' up in the slums

[00:03:12] It wasn't too bad havin' a few dads

[00:03:15] The only thing I disliked was not havin' cash

[00:03:17] What I'd give for a couple of bucks

[00:03:19] Man life as a shorty shouldn't be so rough but hey

[00:03:23] Even though I'm young and I can't see

[00:03:28] The forest from the trees follow me

[00:03:33] And when I'm grown you know I'm bound to be

[00:03:38] The HNIC follow me

[00:03:43] Mama I'll be alright just let me do my thing

[00:03:49] Following my dreams this is me
