Produced by A.V.S of B.M.E

lyrics

Young girl was only 16
And her momma use to tell her to go to sleep with big dreams
Put ya mind to it you can do big things
She had big plans to be on the big screen
Yeah she wanted to be an actress
Everyday she took time out to practice
She aint have enough money for a coach
Honestly she barely had money for a coat
So everyday she would come home after school
Gotta deal with her step pops attitude
And her momma wanna do something
But to avoid getting beat, she sit there and do nothing
No one man should have that power
But that's not a man right there that's a coward
But see shorty aint giving up
And every time she get knocked down she keep on getting up
It don't stop her it make her go harder
She know the hard work gone push her to go farther
Got a lil job start saving up her money
Some of her friends saying she starting to act funny
Nah she just got a lil plan
Still going forward just doing what she can
Still no pops there to give her a hand
And she can't find that dealing with a younger man
Damn, she started dealing with this D-boy old head street boy that can't be good news
She done had a lil baby tryna get back on her feet but she can't find good shoes
See the moral of the story is
Everybody even you know who shorty is
See the moral of the story is
Everybody even you know who shorty is
