[1st Verse:]

See I done been discriminated against

Talked about by my friends

Played a fool by women

And had a daddy with no feelings

I lived in ghettos with my momma

Used the stove to heat our water

and had to share clothes with my brothers

Three of us one bed one cover oh



[Chorus:]

And those were the happiest days of my lyfe

If it aint rough it aint right

Street lights are coming on

Better get home, better get home

Those were the happiest days of my lyfe

If it aint rough it aint right

While we're reminiscing Christopher Reeves

you're still Superman to me 



[2nd Verse:]

See I done been mistreated and discouraged

felt like I was worthless

Lonely scared and nervous

In a world without no purpose

Cried out to God I didn't deserve this

But he said in time I would

See it's the bad times that make the good times feel so good 



[Chorus/Rap:]

Yo I done changed dirty diapers

Cooked food with lighters

Shot so much game chicks nicknamed me sniper

Famous ghostwriter

Bank account retired

too many zeros

poppy still illegal

Chain look like nickels mixed with icicles

Stretching from the neck area to the genitals

I got a parrot on my shoulder that talk for me

And he don't say shit but nigga back off of me

Yea I'm a hood nigga

But I'm still a good nigga

Bought a couple kids new bikes, Just cause I could nigga

And I aint one who be lookin for thanks

I just ball cause I like the Yanks
