I remember shooting us over necklaces
Little then big breakfasts
Growin up in the projects--life stinks
Drinkin fifths of Hennessey to forget my misery
Strugglin out here in these streets, barely living
Hook:
And this world is just so hateful
The kids are so ungrateful
And I'm no longer able to disguise my disgust
And I know they say we should trust,
The Lord to come and help us,
And maybe I'm just being selfish,
But I've had enough,
Chorus:
Oh,but when my song comes on the radio
I forget all of my troubles
And for one moment I'm not there at all
No matter where in my life I am
Thats my Jam
Said when my song comes on the radio
I forget all of my troubles
And for one moment I'm not there at all
No matter where in my life I am
Thats my jam
I remember fighting with my babysitter
Life without no father figure
Searchin for my daddy's killer--Life Stinks
Workin jobs that I don't like
Cussin out God every night
For givin me this awful life
And it don't stop
Hook:
Cause this world is just so hateful
The kids are so ungrateful
And I'm no longer able to disguise my disgust
And I know they say we should trust
The Lord to come and help us
And maybe I'm just bein selfish
But I've had enough, oh
Chorus(1x)
Rap(Lyfe)
Now I done been in a lot of street fights
got hood stripes, but I ain't immune to pain
whether your seventeen, black or white,gay, straight or a lesbian
we all go through the same thing on one level or another
You never had a dad, had a part-time mother
Had a good girl but you was too gutter
Mommy got a man now but you still love her
Some things just fall apart, like some words break your heart
Even if you dont admit it, sometimes in the back of ya mind
You really wanna fall down and cry and never get up
But you got to get up, cause you got to pay bills
Eventhough you feel like a looser
But you ain't a looser, u God's child and can't nothin move ya
Chorus:
Oh but when my song comes on the radio
I forget all of my troubles
for one moment I'm not there at all
No matter where in my life I am
Thats my jam, thats my jam!
Song comes on (when my song comes on the radio)
forget all of ( i forget all of my troubles)
moment I
Woah, no matter where in my life I am
Thats my Jam.
