I know what you go through
|
From me to you, I love you
|
|
From the nigga to the baller, never satisfied
|
So the money got you doing shit that'll fuck up your pride
|
You ain't a hoe, you just really trying to get by
|
Every day looking up at the sky
|
Sometimes, shit get so hard
|
It really have you bothered
|
First you sigh, then you cry
|
Up a whole puddle of water
|
Seem like this shit won't ever end
|
Merry go rounds to the whirlwinds
|
Waves turn to a hurricane
|
If you see joy, you got to see pain
|
Shit in the world ain't gonna ever change
|
Even when you die, it'll be the same
|
Now you due to them circumstances
|
Jars aren't counted so your forced to dance
|
Hoping and praying for a second chance
|
Just wanna put back on your pants
|
Walk out the club and throw up your hands
|
Tired of being disrespected by her man
|
Think this shit ain't right for you
|
Niggaz been yellin all night for you
|
Got in your mind what's best for you
|
Walk up to the club owner, tell him your through
|
|
She's stuck off in this little room
|
With nothing left to hold onto
|
Her life is in a little box
|
She's wondering will it ever stop
|
The life of a stripper
|
|
I'm so sick and I'm so tired
|
Of these clubs, I keep crying
|
Every night, I wipe my eyes
|
Cause these years pass me by
|
I give up, I'm all in
|
My whole life is full of sin
|
This road is a dead end
|
I wanna live again
|
|
From the point when a child is torn from a mothers umbilical cord
|
No one really enforces that life is gonna be hard
|
Which is kinda left up to the teachers
|
But the teachers leave it up to the preachers
|
The preachers ain't fillin the bleachers
|
It's the rappers
|
Sad, ain't it
|
|
It was this girl named Star, pretty fine little woman
|
Going to college, taking off her clothes for money
|
She gotta pay the rent, she got a little girl
|
Her baby daddy ain't shit, See what she dealin with?
|
But she gotta hold on (hold on)
|
Wanna leave the club alone (it feels wrong)
|
She gotta pay the bills but in the meantime
|
She like "fuck how she feel" living is real
|
So she back in the club again
|
Taking off her clothes again
|
Going to school, going to work, getting tiring
|
Lack of sleep but baby gotta eat
|
And these shoes on her feet
|
She got a test next week so she stressed
|
Ask god to give her a blessing, send her in the right direction
|
Her parents died when she was eight years old
|
And after that, she felt like she was all alone
|
But she got her grandparents and they raised her well
|
Keep going to school, take care of yourself
|
Getting hard, going to school and work in the club
|
And at the same time looking for love
|
She can't keep skipping for an occupation
|
In a minute she'll be graduating
|
Make her wanna throw up her hands
|
Now she only wanna live again
|
|
She's stuck off in this little room
|
With nothing left to hold onto
|
Her life is in a little box
|
She's wondering will it ever stop
|
The life of a stripper
|
|
I'm so sick and I'm so tired
|
Of these clubs, I keep crying
|
Every night, I wipe my eyes
|
Cause these years pass me by
|
I give up, I'm all in
|
My whole life is full of sin
|
This road is a dead end
|
I wanna live again
|
|
She's stuck off in this little room
|
With nothing left to hold onto
|
Her life is in a little box
|
She's wondering will it ever stop
|
The life of a stripper
