Things’ll Never Change E-40 (Ft. Bo Roc)

[Intro: E-40, Bo-Roc & DMC]
Aw, yeah (Aw— Aw— Aw, yeah)
It's real (Da-da-da, da-da-da-da, aw, yeah)
Finna put it down (Aw, yeah)
All these old crime thangs, homeless (Da-da-da, da-da-da-da)
The world is crazy, boy (Da)
It's like this, that's the way it is, uh (La-da-da, da-da-da-da, da)
Heavy out there, it's heavy (When will we ever learn?)

[Verse 1: E-40]
Was I really such a bad child?
Did I deserve 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 freezin' like the morgue
Only thing keeping me alive is the Lord
Needless to say, it's times like this I'd rather be locked up than
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: Bo-Roc & E-40]
Some 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? (Huh)
