L is for the liars that have surrounded me   I insecurity, my head down in these streets   F my future, there isn?t one   E eternal hope and this is my life      I wake up everyday to the same old foster mother   I ain?t got no pictures of my mother   She was a crack fiend, nothing like pot mother   She didn?t make a difference, even though she could?ve      I'm ashamed, ashamed of my life   Papa tried to sell me twice on the late night stop by   Look in my eyes, bags from the tears that I cried   And the people who lied      Telling me that this was my place   Phony tried to smile in my face   But I should?ve knew something was real   Smile when she open the mail      Kept a nice mink on her back   Meanwhile I got a goose and my goose's got patches   I?m so mad, this is me, I?m so hurt, this is me   So why should it be but I?m a be alright though      L is for the liars that have surrounded me   I insecurity, my head down in these streets   F my future, there isn?t one   E eternal hope and this is my life      I?m pregnant by a dude and he?s not 16   But I like his style, his whip is mean   My momma told me to find a man to take care of me   And he does buy me things but he beats on me      I come to her for a little advice   She tolds her something?s up with a black eye   Telling me to know my place   So I stay, wait for my body phase   Telling myself that it?s a lil' pregnancy phase      When all in reality I?m being discouraged   And disrespected and under depression   And I don?t really blame the man   I blame my mother for not teaching me the different types of man      Life never understood its stand   My side of the story being that it's so consistent   18 years and 9 months developing, raising in prison   I guess I'll never make a difference      L is for the liars that have surrounded me   I insecurity, my head down in these streets   F my future, there isn?t one   E eternal hope and this is my life      Born orphans with nothing to offer is the least of my problems   Parents like déjà vu, stomach is starving   3 months pregnant idiotically I departed   So ashamed of a life that was started      I ask God if He could take the pain away   He made me in denial of every word I pray   Everyday it's the same old no talent   I?m feeling like my life is unbalanced      No telling what tomorrow gonna look like, yeah right   Wrapped up in a fast light for suicidal act   Why is my life set up for failure y'all   I can care less what the people say to y'all      We break out in rage, venting all the hurt inside   Who am I to tell you what you failed to realize   The voice that you hold within you   The voice that you are, the voice of the young people      L is for the liars that have surrounded me   I insecurity, my head down in these streets   F my future, there isn?t one   E eternal hope and this is my life
