HEARD `EM SAY feat.Adam Levine of Maroon 5

And I heard em say Nothing's ever promised tomorrow today From the Chi like Tim it's a harder way So this is in the name of love like Robert say Before you ask me to go get a job today Can I at least get a raise from the minimum wage And I know the government administered AIDS So I guess we just pray like the minister say Allah U Akbar and throw in some hot cars The things we see on the screen is not ours But these niggas from the hood so these dreams not far Where I'm from the dope boys is the rock stars But they can't cop cars without seeing cop cars I guess they want us all behind bars And I heard em say Nothing's ever promised tomorrow today And I heard em say Nothing's ever promised tomorrow today But we'll find a way (And nothing lasts forever but be honest babe Hurts but it may be the only way) They say people in your life are seasons And everything that happen is for a reason And niggas gun clappin and keep to squeezin' And grams keep praying and keep believin' In Jesus in one day that she'll see him So they walk in his footsteps and try to be him The devil is alive I feel him breathing Claiming money is the key so keep on dreamin' And put them lottery tickets just to tease us My Aunt Pam can't keep put them cigarettes down So now my little cousin smoking those cigarettes now His job try to claim that he too niggerish now Is it because his skin blacker than liquorish now I can't figure out sicker than now And I heard em say Nothing's ever promised tomorrow today And I heard em say Nothing's ever promised tomorrow today But we'll find a way (And nothing lasts forever but be honest babe Hurts but it may be the only way) (With every worthless word we get more far away) (And nothings ever promised tomorrow today) (And nothing lasts forever but be honest babe Hurts but it may be the only way)
