Murs - Yesterday & Today lyrics

(Yesterday I)

(And Today I'm)

(Yesterday I)

(And Today I'm)

[Murs]

I ain't, I ain't, I ain't getting out of bed today

9 to 5 to survive, theres gotta be a better way

Waking up early to punch in the clock

How I look, a grown man with my lunch in a box

But my kids need socks and shoes, I'm walking through

The office, boss yelling "Who you talkin to?"

Dont you know on the streets I woulda- nevermind

The past is the past, I gotta leave it behind

But man, back on the block I was a bonafide hustler

Spot popping off until the police rushed us

Handcuffed us, I thought I was gone

Coulda cried, thinking I'd miss my son being born

But I was blessed, beat the case, now I'm tryna reform

But these white folks, make it so hard to move on

You gotta, jump through hoops, anger management coups

But the fact I'm still standing here today is proof that...

[Chorus]

(Yesterday I) Felt the most hated

I thought I couldn't take it, they said I couldn't make it

(And today I'm) Feelin' brand new

I got nothin' to lose, I'm bout to make moves

(Yesterday I) Felt the most hated

I thought I couldn't take it, I fought until I made it

(And today I'm) Feelin' brand new

I got nothin' to lose, get out my way move

[Murs]

On to the next, it was all about sex

When I first met my little baby girl Anette

shee was standing at the bus stop, sucking on a lolli-pop

Eyes collard green, lean, thicker then a pork chop

Stop- cause I don't eat swine

But this girl was so divine that I had to make her mine

Called her phone a few times, she thought I was funny

Fell for it like a dummy, it was all for the money

Gyeah...growing up in the hood

You would think Id understand,but I never understood

Why she really came around, when my dough wasnt good

Now you could call it puppy love cause I got dogged out

Now on all my note books I got her name crossed out

But she lost out, I just lost profit, when she left me in cold

Heart broke like like my pockets and...

[Chorus]

[Murs]

You know them days you just got the blues

All stressed and depressed from just watchin the news

No matter what good you do it seems you always get screwed

Got you caught up in your feelings now you off in the mood

Shake that attitude and do what you can

Set a couple goals follow through with your plans

Time waits for no man and tomorrows not promised

So if shes still alive shoot a call to your momma

Cause the fighting and the drama, its just not worth it

Nobodys perfect, ain't none of us worthless

We all got a place, and we all got a purpose

Now I'm not taking y'all to sunday service

But ya clap your hands as you stand up and work it

Like your grandmama used to do that fan down at worship

Spread it, pop it, and wave it in my face

Put your hands around your waist, let me ride to the bass like...

[Chorus]
