layne jazzey - tough times lyrics

[verse 1: layne jazzey]

it’s 2000 and i’m still nine
story of my life
i knew nothing as i was a child
tears dripping off my mama eyes
pops wanna leave the house
i remember when my mama cried
i’m sure she just wanted to die
she lost her man over lies
marriage ended overnight
cause all he wanted was to fight
she never did nothing right
all he did was criticize
even when she compromised
even when she sacrificed
mama was forever nice
well, good luck to his new wife

[chorus: reggie] 2x

everything i went through
thanks to messiah i am so
grateful
that was really tough life
thanks to messiah we survived
the tough times

[verse 2: layne jazzey]

it’s 02′ and we still bruised
no pocket money when i go to
school
mommy hustling tryna buy food
them neighbors laughing but
it’s nothing new
i’m sure they had nothing to do
you know it’s funny when it’s
not you
experiencing what we went through
eight children in the family
mommy feeding every single kid
she never gave up any kid
for adoption or for money schemes
she stood up on her own feet
and she made a soldier outta me
my sisters and my brother tip
i pray that he p-ss metric
and go to university

[chorus: reggie] 2x

everything i went through
thanks to messiah i am so
grateful
that was really tough life
thanks to messiah we survived
the tough times

[verse 3: layne jazzey]

fast forward to 011′
big brother got a job wow!!
big sister already working now
all the rumors calmed down
new friends came around
relatives coming out
pops started showing up
pops started calling us
thinking we forgot about
mom’s pain when she was espoused
i will always love my moms
already forgave pops
we gotta love one another
shout out to my other brothers
b-man and t.k
you know we’ll always be great
we can never live without each other
but we can live without gadgets
you know we never had a pc
it was gonna put mommy over budget
now we eat kfc buckets
no more chicken feet bro’s
refrigerator full of braai wors
and that’s something they already know

[chorus: reggie] 2x

the end!!!
