rate me
[VERSE 1] Yesterday, I rolled through the hood And I seen somethin' And it hurt me Yesterday, I rolled throught the hood And I seen somethin' And it hurt me You were talkin' to that woman Like you could show her somethin' And I didn't know what to do You pulled out your pen and paper And I know it your number you gave her I never thought this bad dream would come true [CHORUS] Baby I want you to know The suburbs to the ghetto Joy is joy and pain is pain...pain One day sooner than you know We'll be livin' tomorrow And we'll be laughin' about today...today [VERSE 2] Yesterday, I rolled through the hood And I seen somethin' And it hurt me Yesterday, I rolled throught the hood And I seen somethin' And it hurt me You were talkin' to your boys And though y'all didn't make noise You tapped him and you pointed at this woman Then she turned around As if she'd been found And all I know my heart started jumpin' [CHORUS] Baby I want you to know The suburbs to the ghetto Joy is joy and pain is pain...pain One day sooner than you know We'll be livin' tomorrow And we'll be laughin' about today...today [REPEAT 2x] Maybe tomorrow...Maybe tomorrow Maybe tomorrow...Maybe tomorrow [BRIDGE] Beautiful baby don't you know you mean the world to me The moon would lose the sky if you don't stay Did I ever tell you that you were my sunshine? So basically if you leave, there is no day [VERSE 3] Yesterday, I rolled throught the hood And I seen somethin' And it hurt me Yesterday, I rolled throught the hood And I seen somethin' And it hurt me Instead of scorin' high in college We're scorin' high in gargabe And not rememberin' who we are And not to mention...forgettin' who God is Don't know that you're special And God will never forget you The world is used, watch what you do with it [CHORUS] Baby I want you to know The suburbs to the ghetto Joy is joy and pain is pain...pain One day sooner than you know We'll be livin' tomorrow And we'll be laughin' about today...today [REPEAT 2x] Maybe tomorrow...Maybe tomorrow Maybe tomorrow...Maybe tomorrow
