Uh, Yea, Uh, Yea, Uh, Yea
[Verse 1]
And I heard `em say, nothing`s ever promised tomorrow today
From the Chi, like Tim it`s a Hard-a-way
So this is in the name of love like Robert say
Before you ask me to go get a job today
Can I at least get a raise of minimum wage?
And I know that the governments administer aids
So I guess we just pray like the minister say
Abu Ark barb and throw him some hot cars
Things we see on the screen that not ours
But these niggaz from the hood so these dreams not far
From where I`m from the dope boys is the rock stars
But they can`t cop cars with seeing cop cars
I guess they want us all behind bars, I know it
[Chorus: Kanye West & Adam Levine]
And I heard `em say, nothing`s ever promised tomorrow today
And I heard `em say..
[Both]
Nothing`s ever promised tomorrow today
[Kanye West]
But I`m a find a way
[Adam Levine]
Nothing last forever but be honest babe, Its hurts but itn`t be the only way
[Verse 2]
They people in life are seasons, and anything that happen it`s for a reason
And niggaz gun clapping they keep to squeezing and gram keep praying and keep believing
In Jesus, and one day that you see him
Till they walk in his footsteps and try to be him
The devil is a lie I feel him breathing
Claiming money is the key, so keep on dreaming
And put them lottery tickets just to tease us
My aunt Pam can`t them cigarettes down
So now my little cousin smoking them cigarettes now
His job try to claim that he too niggerish now
Is it cause be skin blacker than liquorish now
I can`t figure it out, I sick of it now
[Chorus]
[Adam Levine]
Cause every worthless word we get more further away
And nothing`s ever promised tomorrow today
Nothing last forever but be honest babe, its hurts but itn`t be the only way
