It Aint Fair - Petey Pablo

It ain’t fair at all

To the children we brought into this world

That see us argue, and go back and forth

It ain’t fair at all

Only fourteen years old, body fully developed

Lived at home with two parents, but do more than her Daddy

Her Momma yelled at her, and appeared to stay mad at her

The truth has it, that wadn’t what that was

I hate to say it, her Momma was really jealous

And intimidated, by everything

That she had made at this beautiful baby

Fucks me up till today

Cause it’s crazy, what you wanted to be in life

Is what you created

Just think in the tenth grade, in visioning graduation

Moving her family out of the place where they stayed

To this pretty place, probably where the rich folks be

With the softest green grass ever felt by feet

But her dream, it would be shattered

Like a falling vase

Coming home to a note, left for her on the kitchen table

How much could you explain on one sheet of paper

Of what she wrote down wadn’t even half a page

You know he could of been whatever he wanted

If his folks had of got behind him

Pushed him out a little bit further

See sometimes the smallest things be enough

To give us what we need to exceed

And cross some hills and a hump

But when you grow up in a home always reminding him of em'

The man they say gave responsibility up

How much at thirteen, you think, that you’re life would be worth

And folks you growed up trusting was who was saying it to you

???, everyday when he leave school

Cause on his way home there’s somebody that he talks to

Feels close to him, and pretty soon

He gonna drop out of school

And assume the life, that feels right to him
