Radio Lyrics

I remember shoot outs over necklaces
Little Debbie breakfasts
An' it's growin' up in the projects, life stinksDrinkin' fifths of Hennessey
To forget my misery
Strugglin' out here in these streetsBarely livin' in this world
It's seems so hateful
The kids are so ungrateful
And I'm no longer able to disguise my disgustAnd I know they're sayin' we should trust
The Lord will come and help us
And maybe I'm just being selfish
But I've had enoughBut when my song comes on the radio
I forget all of my troubles
And for one moment I'm not there at all
No matter where in my life I am, that's my jamSaid when my song comes on the radio
I forget all of my troubles
And for one moment I'm not there at all
No matter where in my life I am that's my jamI remember fightin' with my babysitter
Life without no father figure

Searchin' for my daddy's killer, life stinksWorkin' jobs that I don't like
Cussin' out God every night
For givin' me this awful lifeAnd it don't stop 'cos this world
It's just so hateful
The kids are so ungrateful
And I'm no longer able to disguise my disgustAnd I know they say we should trust
The Lord will come and help us
And maybe I'm just being selfish
But I've had enoughWhen my song comes on the radio
I forget all of my troubles
And for one moment I'm not there at all
No matter where in my life I am, that's my jamSaid when my song comes on the radio
I forget all of my troubles
And for one moment I'm not there at all
No matter where in my life I am, that's my jam
That's my jamYo, I done been in a lot of street fights
Got a hood stripes but I ain't immune to pain
Whether you are seventeen, black or white
Gay, straight or a lesbianWe all go through the same thing on one level or another
You never had a dad, had a part time mother
Had a good girl but she was too gutter
Mommie got a man now but you still love herSome things just fall apart
Like some words break your heart
Even if you don't admit it sometimes in the back of your mind
You really want to fall down and cry and never get upBut you gotta get up 'cos you gotta pay bills
Even though you feel like a loser
But you ain't a loser
You God's child and can't nothin' move yaWhen my song comes on the radio
I forget all of my troubles
For one moment I'm not there at all
No matter where in my life I am, that's my jam
That's my jamWhen my song comes on the radio
I forget all of my troubles
Oh, no matter where in my life I am, that's my jam
