Illusionz Of The ill-Taught

[Intro]

[Verse 1]

Shorty was the, age of nine
She was ageing fine
Innocent, unpolluted, never phased with time
Who knew she'd ever leave them days behind?
Had a talent for art, teachers said "That's an amazing mind
Use it well because the grave is prying"
Fast forward 9 years, she just wish that would've stayed in mind
She now in college with a baby crying
You see society done turnt our lil' girls into some crazy dimes

I'm talking

Hoes on poles, they inspired by those
She follow bad bitches so she wanna try that pose
When really she just want affection
Made to think the only realistic connection's
Through a fucking erection
Thick mami or model slim, lost in perfection
Grading so good, make girly hate her complexion
But my homies be like "Nigga wait
She tryna fuck before the dinner date
Don't you think this shit is great?"

[Hook]

Innercity tales, who endures, prevails
Illusions of the ill-taught leads to funeral bells
I roll another for our brother, the single mother
There's a whole new world to discover
Why we taking cover?

Ay, fuck these bitches but not my daughter
Love to all my dargs, your dargs can go to the slaughter
Innercity tales, who endures, prevails
Illusions of the ill-taught leads to funeral bells

[Bridge]

Ain't nothing out here for a nigga but drugs, weapons and sex
We can learn what they teach, but where will it reach?
Shit, I ain't even tryna preach, let get it

[Verse 2]

Shorty was the, age of ten
He on the pavement then
He's seeing shit, he takes it in
And clocked the game that's when
His life ain't ever be the same again
Now in his teens, serving fiends
'Cos somebody gotta pay the rent
Ain't no daddy round to save him then
Plus his mama waiting on that welfare to get paid again
He starts to question "Why you blazing then?"
You see his mama kinda like the lil' girl I'd just explained to them

He's growing, up on trees
Riding round with them g's
Knows it's all wrong but he's down for them p's
Now he's neck deep up in this hell
We know the only outcome is dead or in jail
But fuck it nigga oh well
Ride for my niggas
Yeah I'd ride my niggas
Even do that fucking time for my niggas
Probably die for my niggas
But is it really worth it when we ultimately die as just figures?

[Hook]

[Outro]
