Title:	What Would You Do?

Boys and girls wanna hear a true story

Saturday night was at this real wild party

They had the liquor overflowin' the cup

About five or six strippers tryin' to work for a buck

And I took one girl outside wit' me

Her name was Loni

She went to Junior High wit' me

I said, why you up in there dancin' for cash?

I guess a whole lots changed since I seen you last

She said

Chorus:

What would you do if your son was at home

Crying all alone on the bedroom floor cuz he's hungry

And the only way to feed him is ta

Sleep wit' a man for a little bit of money

And his daddy's gone

So we're smokin' rock now

In and out of lock down

I ain't gotta job now

So for you this is just a good time

But for me this is what I call life

Girl, you ain't the only one wit' a baby

That's no excuse to be livin' all crazy

Then she looked me right square in the eye

And said, everyday I wake up hopin' to die

She said, n**** I know about pain cuz

Me and my sista ran away

So my daddy couldn't rape us

Before I was a teenager

I done been through more sh**

You can't even relate ta

Repeat Chorus

(Then she said, what would you do if)

Get up on my feet and let go of every excuse

(What would you do)

Cuz I wouldn't want my baby to go through what I went through

(C'mon, what would you do)

Get up on my feet, stop makin tired excuses

(What would you do)

Girl I know if my mother can do it, baby you can do it

Repeat Chorus

What would you do if your son was at home

Crying all alone on the bedroom floor cuz he's hungry

And the only way to feed him is to

Sleep wit' a man for a little bit of money

And his daddy's gone

So we're smokin rock now

In and out of lock down

I ain't gotta job now

So for you this is just a good time

But for me this is what I call life, c'mon

Repeat Chorus
