Life Story lyrics

by

Lil’ Kim


[Intro]
The world ain't no different now
The world ain't no different now

[Verse 1]
Never had a dime, my life of crime
Had to be when I was nine, moms drunk off wine
Running with all kinds, her mind stayed in a stupor
To the point she paid no mind to the super
Stayed mad but stayed frontin' with smiles
Stomach stayed on the growl, eating once in a while
First day of school, I never had nothing to style
Mr. Colondre stressing, I ain't come in a while
It was a bummer, rocking the sh*t I rocked all summer
On the first day, I was feeling some kind of way
And she wasn't trying to do nothing, you would think
For the sake of the kids, she'd enroll in school or something
Now I know then was even harder
'Specially for a single mother raising me with no father
sh*t, living up in this tenement, eating stale Entenmann's
Talking wild sh*t to Spanish immigrants
I speak in codes, man tú sabe?
Always! Cállate! Bendición to my madre
Even though she never did nothing for me
Acknowledge me as I run down my life story
[Chorus: Cheryl Pepsii Riley & Racquel]
You don't know how crazy it is outside
I've died inside so many times
Oh, I've cried, oh, I've cried

[Verse 2]
Check the skit, nobody never gave me sh*t
If anything a n*gga framed me and made me get
Three to six my first bid, no doubt up in Spofford
Had to be 12, son, trying to make a profit
Remembering robbed my moms with no guilt
Eating pork and beans, old corn flakes with no milk
Bitter, in school I smacked cats in a hurry
Moms ain't care, she busy getting drunk with Mrs. Barry
On the first floor, I used to thirst for greenery
Picking pockets with Seth and Jay from 106th Street
Yo, f*ck home, I'm tired of getting punched in my dome
Tired of hearing this faggot-ass n*gga moan, I started roaming
My hustle game is deep, cats, ya heard?
From San Fran back to Manhattan to Newburg
Notorious tell your friends to spread the word
Glorious, my life story is absurd

[Chorus: Cheryl Pepsii Riley & Racquel]
You don't know how crazy it is outside
I've died inside so many times
Oh, I've cried, oh, I've cried
I know I haven't been the best
I've shown you things you shouldn't have seen
Can you forgive me? Can you forgive me? Oh, my baby
[Verse 3]
Home from Elmira, got a little brighter
I'ma keep it real, still a schemer and conniver
Recognize the struggle, living like a thug do
Hatred in my heart, but inside I love you
See, no matter what I'll extend my arms to hug you
Knowing that I'm just like you, I'm like your double
All I wanna know is how you pound me down
Yo, this sh*t is real, you really j*rked me around
But anyway, I'm getting paid with Puff now
'Bout to cop you a house I can send you some stuff now
So many levels jail take you
I appreciate jail 'cause it made me appreciate you
I've been through fire and brimstone
Used to be diplomas in jail, now I cop the gemstone
I remembered when you rushed me
The time you said you should of flushed me
I forgive you, ma, trust me

[Chorus: Cheryl Pepsii Riley & Racquel]
You don't know how crazy it is outside
I've died inside so many times
Oh, I've cried, oh, I've cried
I know I haven't been the best
I've shown you things you shouldn't have seen
Can you forgive me? Can you forgive me? Oh, my baby
