Yesterday, I rolled through the hood
And I seen somethin´
And it hurt me
Yesterday, I rolled throught the hood
And I seen somethin´
And it hurt me
You were talkin´ to that woman
Like you could show her somethin´
And I didn´t know what to do
You pulled out your pen and paper
And I know it your number you gave her
I never thought this bad dream would come true
[Chorus]
Baby I want you to know
The suburbs to the ghetto
Joy is joy and pain is pain... pain
One day sooner than you know
We´ll be livin´ tomorrow
And we´ll be laughin´ about today... today
Yesterday, I rolled through the hood
And I seen somethin´
And it hurt me
Yesterday, I rolled throught the hood
And I seen somethin´
And it hurt me
You were talkin´ to your boys
And though y´all didn´t make noise
You tapped him and you pointed at this woman
Then she turned around
As if she´d been found
And all I know my heart started jumpin´
[Chorus]
Baby I want you to know
The suburbs to the ghetto
Joy is joy and pain is pain... pain
One day sooner than you know
We´ll be livin´ tomorrow
And we´ll be laughin´ about today... today
[Repeat: x2]
Maybe tomorrow... Maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow... Maybe tomorrow
Beautiful baby don´t you know you mean the world to me
The moon would lose the sky if you don´t stay
Did I ever tell you that you were my sunshine?
So basically if you leave, there is no day
Yesterday, I rolled through the hood
And I seen somethin´
And it hurt me
Yesterday, I rolled through the hood
And I seen somethin´
And it hurt me
Instead of scorin´ high in college
We´re scorin´ high in gargabe
And not rememberin´ who we are
And not to mention...forgettin´ who God is
Don´t know that you´re special
And God will never forget you
The world is used, watch what you do with it
[Chorus]
Baby I want you to know
The suburbs to the ghetto
Joy is joy and pain is pain...pain
One day sooner than you know
We´ll be livin´ tomorrow
And we´ll be laughin´ about today...today
[Repeat: x2]
Maybe tomorrow... Maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow... Maybe tomorrow
And I seen somethin´
And it hurt me
Yesterday, I rolled throught the hood
And I seen somethin´
And it hurt me
You were talkin´ to that woman
Like you could show her somethin´
And I didn´t know what to do
You pulled out your pen and paper
And I know it your number you gave her
I never thought this bad dream would come true
[Chorus]
Baby I want you to know
The suburbs to the ghetto
Joy is joy and pain is pain... pain
One day sooner than you know
We´ll be livin´ tomorrow
And we´ll be laughin´ about today... today
Yesterday, I rolled through the hood
And I seen somethin´
And it hurt me
Yesterday, I rolled throught the hood
And I seen somethin´
And it hurt me
