Boys and girls wanna here a true story 
Saturday night was at this real wild party 
They had the liquor overflowin` the cup 
About 5-6 strippers tryin` to work for a buck 
Took one girl outside with me 
Her name was Lonnie 
She went to junior high with me 
I said, \"Why you up in there dancin` for cash?\" 
I guess a whole lot has changed since I seen you last

What would you do if your son is at home 
Cryin` all alone on the bedroom floor 
Cause he`s hungry 
And the only way to feed him 
Is to sleep with a man for a little bit of money 
And his dad is gone 
Somewhere smokin` rock now 
In and out of lockdown 
I ain`t gotta job now 
So for you this is just a good time 
But for me, this is what I call life

Girl you ain’t the only one with a baby 
That`s no excuse to be livin` all crazy 
And then she looked me dead square in the eye 
And said everyday I wake up hopin` to die 
She said, Nigga I know about pain cause 
Me and my sister ran away so my daddy wouldn’t rape us 
Before I was a teenager 
I`ve done been through more shit you can`t even relate to

What would you do if your son is at home 
Cryin` all alone on the bedroom floor 
Cause he`s hungry 
And the only way to feed him 
Is to sleep with a man for a little bit of money 
And his dad is gone 
Somewhere smokin` rock now 
In and out of lockdown 
I ain`t gotta job now 
So for you this is just a good time 
But for me, this is what I call life

What would you do 
Get up on my feet and let go of every excuse 
What would you do 
Cause I wouldn`t want my baby to go through what I went through 
What would you do 
Get up on my feet and stop making tired excuses 
What would you do 
Girl I know if my mamma can do it, baby you can do it

What would you do if your son is at home 
Cryin` all alone on the bedroom floor 
Cause he`s hungry 
And the only way to feed him 
Is to sleep with a man for a little bit of money 
And his dad is gone 
Somewhere smokin` rock now 
In and out of lockdown 
I ain’t gotta job now 
So for you this is just a good time 
But for me, this is what I call life 
What would you do if your son is at home 
Cryin` all alone on the bedroom floor 
Cause he`s hungry 
And the only way to feed him 
Is to sleep with a man for a little bit of money 
And his dad is gone 
Somewhere smokin` rock now 
In and out of lockdown 
I ain`t gotta job now 
So for you this is just a good time 
But for me, this is what I call life
