[00:00:02] Written by：Keith Murray/Erick Sermon/Sam Dees/David Camon

[00:00:05] Yo the fruit don't fall far from the tree

[00:00:10] Yeah uh

[00:00:14] My grandfather use to tell me

[00:00:16] This place ain't got nothing to offer you

[00:00:17] Don't you see all the changes everybody going through

[00:00:20] This family got problems and they do too

[00:00:23] But everybody wanna tell you what they think you should do

[00:00:26] He said watch them so called friends and them girls too

[00:00:28] Sonny do you like they did Jesus crucify you

[00:00:31] As he sat there in his chair looking out the window

[00:00:33] I'm thinking when you can't get away where you go

[00:00:36] Inside your mind man child never had a chance to be young

[00:00:39] Either you selling drugs or out there on the binge strung for some

[00:00:42] There's only two places to go the morgue or the pen

[00:00:45] For some school is an option entertainment to alternate them

[00:00:48] Then they'll try to exploit you discriminate you

[00:00:50] Use you as a tool make money and live in luxury off you

[00:00:53] And we so confused we wanna believe in something

[00:00:56] So they promise us the world but give us nothing

[00:00:59] I say we can be all in this together

[00:01:03] Yeah will you end up like your family tree

[00:01:10] Tell me what you gonna do what you gonna do

[00:01:15] What you gonna do

[00:01:17] Your mind ain't too far from the sky

[00:01:20] The death of a loved one remind you of yourself don't it

[00:01:24] Knowing you could be next at any given moment

[00:01:26] Like twine I used to call him a brother of mine

[00:01:29] His pops was a drunk and his mother was blind

[00:01:32] He use to stay at my hose sometimes my mom's didn't mind

[00:01:34] We was just nickel and dime hustlers wasting time

[00:01:37] Living in the streets targeted and forced to kill

[00:01:40] Dualistically we learned how to lie and steal

[00:01:43] Gangsters of the future modern day's thugs

[00:01:46] Seem like me whole hood is covered in blood

[00:01:48] Traveling a ruff life in the eye of the storm

[00:01:51] Now I wear their life stories tattooed on my arm

[00:01:54] Psych's grandmother passed away on April fool's day

[00:01:57] Then her funeral was on her birthday sh*t is real

[00:02:00] My man had four baby moms and two on the way

[00:02:02] And trying to make a living for them passes away in vein

[00:02:05] God bless him ask skeet

[00:02:06] Child of the streets well well well well

[00:02:10] Will you end up like your family tree

[00:02:16] Tell me what you gonna do

[00:02:18] What you gonna do

[00:02:19] What you gonna do

[00:02:22] Understand the habits

[00:02:25] Behind the child of the streets

[00:02:27] They try to f**k my fame up tear my name up

[00:02:30] Turn around and sue me f**k my little bit of change up

[00:02:33] I knew it was going to be some sh*t to get me for some cream

[00:02:35] I saw it in my subconscious world like a vision

[00:02:38] At first it hurt me like a knife in the heart

[00:02:41] But by nature I continued to live out my part

[00:02:44] As art imitates life and life imitates art

[00:02:46] Don't respect the streets and they tear your a** apart

[00:02:49] It's important that my understanding understood

[00:02:52] But it's more important that it's understood in the hood

[00:02:54] And to all the females in the pen stay strong

[00:02:57] Any day in jail girl is a day too long

[00:03:00] And for those who had to do what they did to slide

[00:03:03] Now running like a fugitive to save the live you live

[00:03:06] Put in a box saw my step pops

[00:03:08] He said boy Keith what the blood clot how much time you got

[00:03:11] Child of the streets little sister

[00:03:16] Tell me where you will lay your head

[00:03:22] Child of the streets little brother

[00:03:28] Where will you make your bed

[00:03:32] Y'all tell me what y'all gonna do

[00:03:36] What y'all gonna do

[00:03:41] Tell me what y'all gonna do
