[2Pac] No fairy tales for this young black male Some see me stranded in this land of hell, jail, and crack sales Though life is hard we carry on Livin' in the projects, broke with no lights on No fairy tales for this young black male Some see me stranded in this land of hell, jail, and crack sales Though life is hard we carry on Livin' in the projects, broke with no lights on [Memphis Bleek] Yo, it's just another day I wake up, it's more rock to break up We take physical losses and y'all just take a pay cut Plus, you take a mortgage loan to hold ya home But our credit is pathetic they just let it be known So they evict us, got some of my sisters livin' in shelters It's the system, the difference you teach ya kids to know better But you can go home, you know ya mom and pop there Yeah, we can go home but our life is out there Yeah, bills through the roof I'm makin' payments every week Get my money off them books cuz ain't nobody hired me People die in your community, life is a struggle Kids dyin' every day cuz they be shootin' for the coke Life through my blood shot eyes can be trouble sometimes I smoke the pain away but still not high I sip that Henny, say a prayer, after that then I'm good Just bless the days for all my people that's raised in the hood It's our life [2Pac] No fairy tales for this young black male Some see me stranded in this land of hell, jail, and crack sales Though life is hard we carry on Livin' in the projects, broke with no lights on No fairy tales for this young black male Some see me stranded in this land of hell, jail, and crack sales Though life is hard we carry on Livin' in the projects, broke with no lights on [Memphis Bleek] And I done traveled the world, wish you could see what I see I been through numerous hoods, they livin' just like we I've seen the wars, seen the struggle, seen the violence in the street Seen a hustler get fed up sometimes and pop back at police Cuz he couldn' stand to see himself in penitentiary Couldn't see those type of numbers so it's elementary See the way I see it's gotta be Heaven for a G Cuz it's hell tryin' to feed ya seed and leave a legacy See wrong, see right depends on how you see in life See justice, she's blind she won't let you see the light Seen people doin' bad I ain't the only one that see Seems like they wanna see us all in this poverty See, I'm in the hood they buildin' condos every week Shit, it hurts to live like this see it's nice across the street But if you can focus in this life ain't ride If you can vision what I printed you'll see life through my eyes Let's go [2Pac] No fairy tales for this young black male Some see me stranded in this land of hell, jail, and crack sales Though life is hard we carry on Livin' in the projects, broke with no lights on No fairy tales for this young black male Some see me stranded in this land of hell, jail, and crack sales Though life is hard we carry on Livin' in the projects, broke with no lights on [Memphis Bleek] I saw the raids in the hood, saw a dude take a trip with like Ten of them thangs in my hood Even saw a young baller slip, he got hit with a clip And that dude that took that route he got hit with like ten Saw the inside of a cell, just bums and fiends Saw the laws of the jails, nigga B's and C's Got Kings and GD's saw a life took for two G's Saw the dope kill a fiend and that just brings you more cheese I saw the block that was worst at its best Seen a man play with a gun and shoot himself in his chest I' tryin' to write so you can see what he saw You know life through hs eyes, that be Tupac Shakur And let's go [2Pac] No fairy tales for this young black male Some see me stranded in this land of hell, jail, and crack sales Though life is hard we carry on Livin' in the projects, broke with no lights on No fairy tales for this young black male Some see me stranded in this land of hell, jail, and crack sales Though life is hard we carry on Livin' in the projects, broke with no lights on
