[Verse 1]
Once upon a time, daddy was a preacher
Even though he saved them souls you would probably see him
Somewhere f**ing with the hoes on my mama cheating
Creeping, seeking for a soul that showed him weakness
And use her right against him for that money in they pocket
They give it cause they feel like [??]
Told them his situation got a wife and five kids
Living in a hotel room, can you spin
Just a little change, so we all can eat
Or maybe pay the rooms so we'll have a place to sleep
Swear it k** my soul, cause now they see us like we poor
It's hard to go to school when teachers and your students know: we broke
And so I had to think of something quick
I started hitting licks
I knew it wasn't me, but I'm going to do it to fit in
Still I'm like, "n***a, please."
I know just who you is
f**ing with that sh** going to get you k**ed, cause I'm a
[Hook]
I'm just a ordinary n***a (I'm just a ordinary n***a)
I'm just a ordinary n***a (I'm just a ordinary n***a)
I'm just a ordinary n***a (I'm just a ordinary n***a)
I'm just a ordinary n***a (I'm just a ordinary n***a)
Don't need no, no dope on no pistols
I just want to keep the peace and f** b**hes
Like a ordinary n***a (ordinary n***a)
I'm just a ordinary n***a (I'm just a ordinary n***a)
[Verse 2]
Let me take you back (Let me take you back)
In the day (in the day)
I'm thinking, matter fact (I'm thinking, matter fact)
At the age of 16 (at the age)
Bi-big dreams of being famous
Though I'm failing every cla**
So I won't see you in math
I'm to busy smoking gra**
Still the bills ain't been paid up, but mama busting her a**
Meanwhile, I'm still in n***as wallets out they locker for cash
Then one day I hear from my homie, told me join in his crew (join in his crew)
We only wear blue, cause life is hell where [??]
I had something to prove
Now my ma' ain't the same, and my life is in danger
So I say, "What's crackin'" to this cat
He ask what I made (ask what I made)
I said the wrong thing, and [??] did I know the [??]
And soon then I feel ashamed
He said "Boy, I'm from LA (I'm from LA), where n***as don't play (don't play), and the culture of gangs are taking a life everyday. Don't know the n***as you hanging with but you should get away, because back home it ain't no questions because I been would have sprayed."
[Hook]
I'm just a ordinary n***a (I'm just a ordinary n***a)
I'm just a ordinary n***a (I'm just a ordinary n***a)
I'm just a ordinary n***a (I'm just a ordinary n***a)
I'm just a ordinary n***a (I'm just a ordinary n***a)
Don't need no, no dope on no pistols
I just want to keep the peace and f** b**hes
Like a ordinary n***a (ordinary n***a)
I'm just a ordinary n***a (I'm just a ordinary n***a)
