[K-Rino - Don't Know Nothin' lyrics]
All she had was one son
The hood is where they come from
By the age of 14 his life became undone
Yeah he knew his real dad but
He did him real bad
Never did a thing for him
Ever so he still mad
Longing for his true roots
Putting on some new boots
Just a year ago he was on
Comic books and Fruit Loops
She scared of her own son
Calling but he won't come
No longer her baby anymore
This cat is on one turn into a little goon
Got to deal with him soon
Mamma coming home from work
Thugs in the living room
Acting like an older G
He out of control indeed
Can't believe he was sitting on
Her couch rolling weed
She could smell it all on him
Had to call the laws on him
Tears in her eyes
Told him you take him 'cause I don't want him
Because of how wild he been, it's a wrap
Dial him in two nights in the county
Now he crying like a child again
You was all about your grips
Sports so you ain't got to trip
Top student in the school about
To get a scholarship
The one they love to bring up
Respectful and clean cut
Never seen a teen more focused on his dream
But now you wanna leave school
Now you wanna be cool
Peaking out the window
Fascinated with them street dudes
A good chance you wasting one
Tryna be what they become
You got the potential to make millions
But you chasing crumbs
Had you from the word go
All up in that world bro
Getting a little money but you
Worried 'bout them girls though
Education cancelled, I don't understand you
Fell in love with one the
Whole neighborhood done ran though
Caught her with another cat
Hated to discover that
Ran up on him with a loaded
Gat and laid the brother flat
That's the picture he'd paint, you in love
She ain't moving on with her life
But he in jail so he can't
Let me teach you
Be a leader, just be a leader
Them stupid fools you following around
Don't see it either
See you ain't got to sell on dope
Fight or do no stealing
If you not feeling what they 'bout
To do just say I'm chilling
The punishment for victimizing folks
Is fast coming
Don't ever let nobody turn you
To a crash dummy
You not the first thought or the last man
I saw too many
The ones you running with today
Won't be around at 20
Or maybe 25, some are lucky to see 30
And if they see it, it's
Because they locked up, hope you heard me
So now the choice is yours
To be intelligent and worldly
Don't be foolish and think you got
It figured out this early
You might not know that it's a
Plan and brothers are in danger
Don't mess over yourself, slow it done
Channel that anger
'Cause one bad decision can destroy
You when you're done
See the key to getting old is
Being smarter when you're young son
The hood is where they come from
By the age of 14 his life became undone
Yeah he knew his real dad but
He did him real bad
Never did a thing for him
Ever so he still mad
Longing for his true roots
Putting on some new boots
Just a year ago he was on

She scared of her own son
Calling but he won't come
No longer her baby anymore
