Part 1
I've got...a case of the blues
Cause all my life I've seen the Used and abused
Its created a whole in my heart
And distrust on my part
Ive...got a case of the blues
Cause while walking through the "ghetto", I hear a gunshot
Only to find out, its over pot.
I've got a case of the blues
Cause on the 10 O'Clock news
A baby left for dead and no one had a clue
ive got a case of the blues
Cause i see babies having babies
But the mothers are forgetting to be ladies
Ive got a case of the blues
Because the mothers are spreading legs
And they just keep on dropping eggs
Ive got a case of the blues
Cause the cycle keeps repeating
And the daddies keep on leaving
ive got a case of the blues
Cause as i sit and write these words...
I dont know what I can do...Do you?
I've got a case of the blues
Cause as I look ahead in life
All i can see is nothing but strife.
Part 2
My Daddy got shot for coming up short on a thugs money
My mama opened her legs for a hit of crack
My ssiter sold her soul to be a thuglords honey
Me...I got the short end of the stick
So here I am...A fugitive from Justice
A second generation crack addicted trick
A product of my ghetto community
Some may ask "what happened?"
It could have been a result of the numerous foster homes
It could have been the violation from my 'dad's'
It could have been the lack of a stable home
Or it could have been the hopelessness and deferred dreams
Am I forced to live my life like this
Is there a chance for me?
Can i ever see a light?I intend to put up a fight
Because I no longer see a life of strife
But one without strife, one i call My Life
I've got...a case of the blues
Cause all my life I've seen the Used and abused

And distrust on my part
