C-LOC - We Alright Though lyrics

(feat. Boo)

[First Verse: Boo]

I remember clear as yesterday, way back seventh grade

Caught me tryin' to turn my after-age

Mama beat me, wasn't no yellin' "Put the belt away"

With nothin' else to say

Boy you punish the rest, but the weak

Even back then, it was hard to stay away, from the streets

Me, Trump, and Button, playin' B-Ball

When the street lights come on, I gots to see y'all

Now when I see y'all, all I see is vivid memories

On how it used to be, 'fore you died or turned dope fiend

Stuck all alone in this cold World

Mom expectation was somethin' greater

Now picture me disappointin', my old Girl

I'm tryin' to smile just to keep from cryin'

But as a child I knew our hopes and dreams was dyin'

One day at a time, it's like the blind leadin' the blind

Even the preachers lyin', so I blaze a dime to ease my mind

Can we shake the trials and tribulations? Even when the money's slow?

Want you to know, that it's gone be alright though, fa sho

[Chorus: uncredited singer]

No more rainy days for me

I put that on my life

Who knows the troubles that I've seen?

Day

And Night

[Second Verse: C-Loc]

Now Mama's baby, Papa's maybe, ain't that shady?

Shit get crazy blowin' a dub sack, askin' where the love at

Now how you luv that?

Attended third grade as a baby dope fiend

At eighteen I'm flippin' birds baby, Big Daddy stay clean

Nothin' comes to a dreamer but a dream, get paid nigga

Lord knows all the troubles I've seen, day to day nigga

Savage style meanwhile heaven-sent

With malicious intent

Thugs knowin' they sell they souls to pay rent

But we alright though, even though we ain't got no lights though

Incognito, with steel toys in hand, at the side-shows

You feelin' me? Unwillingly?

Drug to central booking, wouldn't set me free

By killin' me

But now I'm back for lookin' deeds

Frequent flashes of alley dashes

To Miss Barbara Ann house

While me and my clique of thug niggas when the tags hop out

Born ass out, livin' life without a clue

In route, to an early grave with misconceptions of stayin' true

Ya heard me?

[Chorus x2]

[Third Verse: C-Loc]

Hey Mama, it's your baby boy, no need to feel shame

Just want you to know I love you, never meant to cause pain

See that's one thing I love about you, you always maintain

Even though life did you a few tears, you just charge it to the game

Don't worry Ma, I ain't lose my life in vain

This for all the misuse, I see you go through, from workin' at food chains

Now correct me if I'm wrong,

Is it a sin to see your family move on to a better place

Cuz you're tired of rainy days?

No! You can't tell me that

I see frustration in your face, like you been to Hell and back

Comin' home from work late, the .38

The dirty way's the only way to bounce back

We gone get what we deserve and for them fools it's payback

All I ever had was good intentions

Oh did I mention? I left a lil' present behind the cabinet in the kitchen

Tell my lil' brother I love him

Stay strong and wipe your face

You know everything alright though, I'm in a better place, ya heard me?

[Chorus x2]
