Verse 1 - E Luv
We went to lunch and this motherfu--er only ordered water
Made a choice between himself and his child and chose his daughter
I later found this out and shi- fell in place what he was facing
Fending for his family in an economy that was not family friendly
Shi-, I mean go--a-n - just look at the fu--in' gas prices
Most are powerless to watch as it rises
Feelin' the squeeze like he was under some federal investigation
Asked him once how many days he actually had saved up for vacation

It was something like 200 hours or something fu--ing absurd
But why do we work - I decided to put in a good word
Position opened up and he could stand well on his own merits
Just needed an opportunity to cut through the corporate bullshi-
Corporations are getting away with murder - numbers based
You take care of your people - that shi-'ll fall in place
Now he can take some vacation and reap the fruits of his work
And spend time with the reason for all this - his little girl

I once wrote this quote: Every Car's a Story
It's whether or not we limit ourselves into perpetuating
The micro-stagnant industries of circularity
That these stories have any especial meaning

Verse 2 - E Luv
Like Do or Die, I really need you to Picture This
I'm in the store - cart full, and this kid is throwing fits
So I listen to see if the parent will actually take control
Then I heard some shi- that shattered my whole motherfu--in' world
The next aisle over from me had all of the pet supplies
And the child made it clear that he was tired of eating 9 Lives
My heart broke worse than any of the females that fu--ed me over
I was uncomfortable, so I didn't approach - would be too awkward

Low income mothers have pride too - not my business, but I had to do
Something - how can there NOT be enough money and food
For everybody on this planet, somebody's got this shi- twisted
Fu--ed up politicians with their super educations
And status - they don't even fu--in' address this
Go--a-n you bitc-es, I'll do somethin' about the shi-
Outside, I gave them the card of a financial advisor I've been using
It's not about how much you make, but how much you keep

Verse 3 - E Luv
Now this guy was a two strikes known hardened criminal
Gang affiliated - twice faced with kill or be killed
Obviously he lived, but the gov said he made the wrong choice
Once you're a victim of the system - there goes your voice
It's set up so that the only way out is death
I can't except that - I reject that and I'll change it
Businesses are not convicted felon friendly - snatch your dignity
Only indemnity comes from people that see what's broken and shi--y

That's the first key - the mentor piece to offer direction
It's not everything because you gotta want to do something
To change the direction that your life is headed, so I told him
There are only motherfu--ers who lose and motherfu--ers who win
At this point, we aren't even showing up to the start of race
So how can we compete - no wonder we always come in last place
If you want to play the game, then don't wait, it starts today
I can help you color within the lines, but it's your decision to make
