Full Version: Today (part 1)

Makaveli Tha Don
Today a child is born, her ma birthed a seed
That she'd have to work to feed, so it hurt indeed
Knowin that soon the kid'd grow with a burst of speed
She lurks and pleads for a man to fill her purse with cheese
It gets worse to see cuz the news she first recieved
Was off by two, cuz she was imbersed with three
Curses on her knees she never asked to run a nursery
She can feel it in her soul and in the dirt she breaths
In her heart she knows love she can't assert with ease
Especially when daddy deserts and flees
And the worst is nobody hears her worthless pleas
Lookin to the sky, wishin she could take back certain deeds
Thinkin I'd be alright if my problems could convert to g's
She's alert and sees that soon she'll be immersed in fees
Frustration sets in and her church she leaves
Thinkin, why I always gotta flirt and tease?

This is what's goin on today in the world
And today I say a prayer for a brave little girl
Everyday shit happens and I have to say
We have to pray, for what's goin on today

Today a child is born, and tomorrow a thousand more
And fathers on the run are what empty towns are for
But for the moment it's different and today it's special
Today we sing for daughters and pray for nephews
Little girl your mother is broke, lungs covered in smoke
Your twin brothers are under the boat, now grab somethin to float
You made it for a reason, been waitin three seasons
So live it up now, you know your lucky to even be breathin
Stay up kid, shine bright and JUST live
Truthfully you're special, you've been told enough fibs
Now look me in the eye, and tell me what's makin you cry
Put it all past you and do what it takes to survive
Promise me you'll smile, cuz today's your b-day
Don't BE fazed, stay focused and you'll gain some leeway
The day I put down the mic, and my playlists are torn
Just let it be known that I wrote this on the day you were born

hook...
This is what's goin on today in the world
And today I say a prayer for a brave little girl
Everyday shit happens and I have to say
We have to pray, for what's goin on today
