midnight curfew - $marcx lyrics

[intro]
(maya angelou)
i want to talk to you about morals. the morals of the young people today
it’s gonna get them in big trouble. because they act like they don’t know the difference between right and wrong
and one of the reasons is their parents. their parents are not taking care of the children
they are not telling them the difference between right and wrong!

(clip from ‘menace ii society’)

[verse 1]
on a random note….dear dr. angelou, i’m sorry i ain’t take the chance to vote
but rap music is more than just what some fans promote
still we rise, to them hustlers outside
with the .45’s in their levis, my n-gga be wise
street diplomats who ain’t got diplomas, too busy hugging them corners
using payphones to pop open coronas, this sh-t for you!
i’m living proof young n-ggas can be productive
cause it’s us against the world, it’s just us–but it ain’t no justice!
the system corrupted, then they wonder why we don’t trust it
it’s designed for us to fail that’s why prisons overflooded
when i call you ‘lil n-gga’ man i don’t mean it like the slave
i mean like my lil brother i’m tryna keep up out the grave
with that said: you my lil n-gga, you ain’t got no father figure
and on top of that i know the odds against ya
i never thought that i’d be the one these young kids look up to
i guess they know that i identify with the struggle

[bridge]
listen i’m langston hughes drinking a brew
that hopeless youth out skipping school
smoking reefer, thinking it’s cool

[hook]
because ain’t n0body stopping you but you lil n-gga!
ain’t n0body stopping you but you lil n-gga!
you can be a rapper or a doctor, bruh, whatever you choose
but know the only thing stopping is you lil n-gga!
ain’t n0body stopping you but you lil n-gga!
thinking way back, remember i was that little

[verse 2]
this goes to them young females with no respect for themselves
thinking they grown women when they only 12
listen you way too young to even be thinking about a wedding
on that path that you headed, that’s how kids end up pregnant
you ain’t 14, take a minute think about your dreams
when that baby drop it’s time to focus on more important things
listen to your dad, because he preyed on women in the past
problem is you trying to grow up too fast
focused on being with whatever n-gga got the most cash
self-esteem gone be shattered when he leave your -ss
have some cl-ss, you got your whole life to grow up
girls at school spreading rumors about ya, so what?
you see, life ain’t a fashion show, it’s more than rocking the latest clothes
you’ll regret it when you get old, so set yourself some goals
if you got a goal, hustling something that you must do
but along the way don’t let your hustle corrupt you

[bridge 2]
i take a walk in her shoes on verse 2
that future prost-tute sneaking out, breaking curfew

[hook 2]
because ain’t n0body stopping you but you lil sister!
ain’t n0body stopping you but you lil sister!
you can be a lawyer, a model–“an actress?” yeah that too
but know the only thing stopping you is you lil sister!
ain’t n0body stopping you but you lil sister!
thinking way back, remember i was that little

i’m langston hughes drinking a brew
that hopeless youth out skipping school
smoking reefer, thinking it’s cool
because ain’t n0body stopping you but you lil n-gga
ain’t n0body stopping you but you lil n-gga

i take a walk in her shoes on verse 2
that future prost-tute sneaking out, breaking curfew
because ain’t n0body stopping you but you lil sister
ain’t n0body stopping you but you lil sister

(hotbox skit)
you know money? your style is so throwback, it just takes me back
almost makes me wanna. . . . .
