Lil Mama


[CHORUS:] 
L, is for the liars that have surrounded me 
I, insecurity, my head down in these streets 
F, my future there isn't 1 
E, Eternal hope 
This is my life 

I wake up every day to the same old foster mother 
I ain't got no pictures of my mother 
She was a crack fiend nothing like pot mother 
She didn't make a difference if though she 
Could've I'm a shame shame of my life 
Pappa cracky sold me twice 
On a late night stopped by 
And look in my eyes 
Bags from the tears that I've cried 
And the people who lied 
Telling me that this is my place 
Phony & try smile In my face 
When I should have know something 
Was rare smiled when she opened the mail 
Kept a nice mink on her back 
Meanwhile I got a goose & my goose got patches 
I'm so mad this is me 
I'm so hurt this is me 
So I shouldn't be 
Well I goin be alright cause 

[CHORUS] 

I'm pregnant by a dude & he not 16 
But I like his style & his whipp is mean 
My mama told me to find a man to take care 
Of me & he does buy me things but he beats on me 
I come to her for a little advice 
So I show up with a black eye 
Telling me to know my place so I stay 
Waiting for my body phase 
Telling myself it just a little pregnancy phase 
When all in reality I'm being discourage & disrespected 
And under the pressure & I don't really blame the man 
I blame my mother for not teaching me the different types of man 
Life could never understand my side of story being that it's so consist 18 years 
And 9 months developing raised in a prison I guess_I'll never make a difference 

[CHORUS] 

Born on to another is the least 
Of my problems 
Parents like deja vu 
My stomach is starving 
3 months pregnant idiotically I departed 
So ashame of a life that was started 
I ask god if he can take the pain away 
He made me in denial of every word I pray 
Every day it's the same old no talent I' feeling like 
My life is unbalanced no telling what tomorrow going look 
Like yea right wrapped up in a fast light for a sudicial 
Act why is my life set up for a failure I can care 
Less with the people say to ya'll we break out 
In rage venting all the hurt inside who am I 
To tell you what you fail to realize the voice that you hold 
Within you the voice that you are 
The Voice Of The Young People! 

[CHORUS]
