Ray Blk Just A Kid Lyrics

Sat at attention
You're always late
Can't pay attention
'Cause there's a light on your plate
You're missin' the school so the teachers quit
Oh, what you gonna do?
When you're just a kid

Well, they don't know 'bout your story
Your life has only begun
No, they don't know 'bout your story
Don't let them say how it ends

They took away your cousins and your daddy, too
You can't get a job
And the rents all but due
Your mother got a lawyer that she just can't afford
You think you're grown, but you're
Still a boy

Well, they don't know 'bout your story
Your life has only begun
No, they don't know 'bout your story
Don't let them say how it ends

One day
You'll grow in, and
One day
They'll know just how hard it was to say no
To a life under street lights
Running from street fights
Its hard to leave your friends on the roads

One day
You'll grow in, and
One day
They'll know just how hard it was to say no
To a life under street lights Running from street fights
Its hard to leave your friends on the roads

No, they don't know 'bout your story
Your life has only began
No, they don't know 'bout your story
Don't spend your life in the end

Yo, what's up Ray, I hope you're amazin', sis
I'm sending so much love, ifs dynamite
I just want to take a second here
To reach out to all the young people out there
You know, far and wide
Life can be so challenging
You know? But whatever may be throwing of your way right now
I would love to remind you of your strength
To remind you of how far you've come
To remind you to check your own history
Check all the things you've overcome thus far
For those of you that are sufferin' or strugglin'
You know, please don't suffer in silence
Find someone to support you
You know, there's so much pressure
So much pressure out there, but you know what?
Ifs a new day
Ifs a new day, and the thing is
You are the new day
You are the new day
You're the gift
