Que Ferais-Tu ?

Les gars et les filles, vous voulez entendre une histoire vraie ?
Samedi soir, il y avait cette fête vraiment sauvage
Ils avaient de la liqueur qui débordait de leur verre,
Environ 5 ou 6 strip-teaseuses qui essayaient de faire leur boulot contre trois sous
Alors j'ai emmené une fille avec moi dehors ,
Elle s'appelait Lonnie, on était au collège ensemble,
Je lui ai demandé "pourquoi es-tu là, en train de danser pour gagner de l'argent ?"
J'imagine que beaucoup de choses ont changé depuis la dernière fois que je t'ai vu
Elle a dit...
[Refrain]
Que ferais-tu si ton fils était à la maison
En train de pleurer tout seul sur le plancher de sa chambre parce qu'il a faim
Et la seule façon de le nourrir, c'est de coucher avec un homme
Pour gagner un peu d'argent, et son père s'est barré
Quelque part pour fumer du crack, sans prendre ses responsabilités,
Je n'ai pas de boulot en ce moment, alors pour toi, c'est juste un bon moment
Mais pour moi, c'est ce que j'appelle la vie
"Ma grande, tu n'es pas la seule à avoir un bébé,
Ce n'est pas une excuse pour vivre sauvagement"
Alors elle m'a regardé, droit dans les yeux,
Et elle m'a dit: "tous les jours, je me réveille, en espérant être morte"
Elle a dit: "je sais ce que c'est de souffrir,
Ma sœur et moi, on s'est enfui pour que
Notre père ne puisse plus nous violer,
Avant mon adolescence,
J'ai vécu plus de merde
Que tu ne pourrais en raconter"
[Refrain]
Que ferais-tu ?
Je me mets debout et j'arrête de trouver toutes les excuses du monde
Que ferais-tu ?
Parce que je ne voudrais pas que mon bébé vive ce que j'ai vécu
Que ferais-tu ?
Je me mets debout, j'arrête de trouver des excuses fatigantes
Que ferais-tu ?
Ma belle, je sais que si ma mère peut le faire, chérie, toi aussi tu peux
[Refrain]
(x3)

What would you do

Boys and girls, wanna hear a true story?
Saturday night was at this real wild party,
There was liquor overflown' the cup
About five or six strippers tryin' to work for a buck,
so I took one girl outside with me, her name was londi,
she went to junior high with me,
I said, why you up in there dancin' for cash?
I guess a whole lot's changed since I seen you last,
she said,

What would you do? If your son was at home cryin' all alone on the bedroom floor?
cause he's hungry, and the only way to feed him is to sleep with a men, for a little bit of money.
And his daddy's gone, in and out of lock-town, i got a job now, guess he's smokin' rock now,
So for you this is just a good time,
but for met this is what i call life,

Girl you ain't the only one to have a baby,
That's no excuse to be living all crazy,
So she stared me right square in the eye and said,
everyday I wake up hopin' to die, she said,
They're gonna know about pain,
cause me and my sister run away,
so our daddy couldn't rape us,
Before I was a teenager,
i done an' been through more than shit,
you can't even relate to,

What would you do? If your son was at home cryin' all alone on the bedroom floor?
cause he's hungry, and the only way to feed him is to sleep with a men, for a little bit of money.
And his daddy's gone, in and out of lock-town, i got a job now, guess he's smokin' rock now,
So for you this is just a good time,
but for met this is what i call life,

(what would you do if)
Get up off my feet and stop making tired excuses
Get up off my feet and stop making tired excuses
Get up off my feet and stop making tired excuses 

(what would you do if)
Get up off my feet

What would you do? If your son was at home cryin' all alone on the bedroom floor?
cause he's hungry, and the only way to feed him is to sleep with a men, for a little bit of money.
And his daddy's gone, in and out of lock-town, i got a job now, guess he's smokin' rock now,
So for you this is just a good time,
but for met this is what I call life,

(What would you do? If your son was at home cryin' all alone on the bedroom floor?
cause he's hungry, and the only way to feed him is to sleep with a men, for a little bit of money.
And his daddy's gone, in and out of lock-town, i got a job now, guess he's smokin' rock now,
So for you this is just a good time,
but for met this is what I call life)
Oh ho ho oh

What would you do? If your son was at home cryin' all alone on the bedroom floor?
cause he's hungry..
