lyrics

Verse 1
She was just trying to make things work/ he was a jerk/ the worst kind you'd find/ the first time she climbed/ onto his matress/ she thought that's it/ I've found heaven/ but Kevin was 25/ and not the type of the guy/ that you let inside/ your heart at all/ started to fall/ head over heels/ but couldn't walk in em/ saw no fault in him/ even after he got her pregnant/ what a disaster shoulda been hesitant/ her mom warned her/ but she didn't listen/ told her she's bitching/ more then a smidgen/ now her position/ keep this baby/ or finish high school/ yeah it's crazy/ she's thinking maybe/ he'll be a good father/ but if you know him you know he won't bother

Verse 2
He and his peeps had beef/ with cats down the street/ Now they plan to meet/ for retaliation/ the occasion/ a misunderstanding/ so they're aching/ to put their hands in / fisticuffs when the gettings rough/ he missed this stuff/ when college started/ he knows it's retarded/ he's feeling lethargic/ he wasn't a hard kid/ the fellas knew/ get out the hood man/ you'll be a good man/ they say to him but they keep calling/ he says he's all in/ wants to be loyal/ his fresh future's/ about to be spoiled/ gun in his sock drawer/ it's wrapped in foil/ he's never used it/ but being brutish/ he's been there before/ though he isn't sure/ if he'll make it out/ should stay in the house
