Things'll Never Change - E-40

Ah yeah..(ah yeah)..it's real. 
gonna put it down. all these little crime thangs  
homeless  the world is crazy bwoy 
it's like this 
it's the way it is 
Heavy out there.. it's heavy. 
Verse 1 
Was I really such a bad child that I deserved to get hit with boards 
and whooped with extension cords? 
did you forget that I was your creation  
and all I wanted from you all was love  hope  and motivation? 
son  you're disrespectful and you're talking back, 
get out my face, kicked me out the house 
and wouldn't even let me plead my case. 
now I'm homeless and I'm freezing like the morgue, 
the only thing keepin me alive is the Lord 
needless to say it's times like this I'd rather be locked up then 
drinkin water out my hands and eatin out of garbage cans 
can I come back home, huh could I? 
Son, you're on your own, why should I? 
Chorus 
Things'll never change, that's just the way it is 
Nobody's even concerned 
Some things'll never change, that's just the way it is 
when will we ever learn? 
Verse 2 
Huh. three years from now, I think I'm gon be straight, (straight) 
I put my name on the list for section 8 
tried out for the army but I was flat footed, 
didn't do no harm to me, cuz I was used to it 
if I apply for some work, let's make a bet, 
I'll get the nine 
cuz I don't know about the internet 
What do you think we need to do to change about this nation? 
need to provide more jobs and better education 
nuclear weapons (puh) should be stopping crimes, 
already got enough to blow the world up 
a thousand times 
the birds and the bees, deadly disease, 
teenage pregnancies, std's 
Chorus
