dee-1 - stranger lyrics

[hook]
you know how it feels, you understand
what it is to be a stranger in this unfriendly land

[verse 1]
he said mr.augustine, you ain’t been through nothing
little sixth grade boy trying to tell me something
he said i’m fifteen still stuck in the sixth
and every evening by six i’m on the block clutching a four fifth
i’m so sick of the same old, same
my brothers in a gang, and my mother’s full of pain
four kids, four fathers, all cheaters
yeah, (?) do pay the bills, but they got a tendecy to beat her
he ain’t hearing right neither when i told him i need money
he handed me some blow and said hit the block for me
yeah, n0body love me so i don’t love n0body
if it’s beef or you tripping i’ll put four through your body
i been to jail more than you done seen jail, mr.all
don’t get me wrong i know you mean well, mr.all
but some pain you just can’t relate to
i offered to bring him home, he said no, thank you

[hook]

[verse 2]
he said dee-1, you ain’t been through nothing
some old school rapper trying to tell me something
he said yeah, you got a buzz, but me i got a deal
i was buzzing in the city when you was on training wheels
more bars than kit-kat, i spit crack
radio, i did that
got signed and they left my buzz get flat
no offense to you, but right here is where i sit at
with no platinum cl-tacks and no hundred st-tacks
dudes i came up spitting with is all in the news
worldstar, bet, mtv too
look, rep an honest flow, and i ain’t got a 9 to 5
i probably could use one, but i got way too much pride
gotta keep my career alive, my girl feeling deprived
my (?) go for ten, but i be slanging ’em for five
so dee i know you feel like you been should’ve blew
but don’t complain, some pain you just can’t relate to

[bridge]
you know i’m a stranger and i’m so all alone

[verse 3]
he said young brother you ain’t been through nothing
some white homeless man trying to tell me something
he asked me for some change, i said what you need it for?
he told me he was hungry, i said come get it in my car
took him to the pizza joint, first i fed him, now we chilling
then i asked him how he got in this unfortunate position
he said he got shot, then he showed me the bulletholes
stomach, leg, back, even lost one of his toes
couldn’t go to work, that’s when his girl left him for his friend
got evicted, since then he sleeps under isle ten
but i told him i could have him in a job in a couple of hours
he said first i need shelter, clothes and a shower
he told me (?) a couple nights
so i took him there broke his (?) real nice
gave him my number, told me he would call me the next day
i never heard from him, i don’t know what to say
