Lost child, lost child Lost child, lost child
I'll tell you this story Uh, yo, yo
She became a bop, she ain't know how to stop She only claim her mom, she ashamed of her
pops Now she bout to pop, a baby on the way

The dude hittin' it, promised a Mercedes on the way
Ain't tryna finish school, she a dropout Go to high school parties in her twenties
Known to pop out, it's time to clock out A part-time job killin' her
The landlord can't get in her pants, he over-billin' her

She try to get a voucher from the state A long day in them long lines
And the outcome is to wait The dude she wit got an estate
Big cake made, her closet filled with Tiffany's And bags from Kate Spade
He never knew she was expectin' a child To him, she just a hood rat

That he slept with after his trial She ain't have the heart to tell him
Took her life in her dwelling' Goddamn, we all need healin
Lost child, lost child Uh, lost child, lost child
Yo, lost child, lost child Yo, God bless, God bless

Uh, just a, you know, just a kid She was just a kid
Had a baby on the way And she made a bad decision
A young boy sit on the curb, live in the slums Beggin' for somebody to come and give him some crumbs
Hands reachin' out, but they wanna give him some drugs

They set him up for failure, they tell him to get the funds
A meek person called him a street urchin Never thinkin' deep, only seekin' to repurpose
Growing up poor, he could never just research it
All he cares about is the better with each purchase

Then, they promised him food, shelter, board, and a room
A freer education, he couldn't afford a school
Told him all he has to do is follow some instructions
He didn't know that part of it was marchin' in the public

And stabbin' a dude right in his stomach
He's gettin' punished, he wanted to cut it out
As he's rummaging through his luggage
He's buggin' because he's makin' a mess of it

He's discoverin' he's runnin
When there's people comin' in front of him, they just cuff him
Lost child, lost child
Uh, lost child, lost child

Yo, lost child, lost child
Yo, god bless, god bless
Lost child, lost child
Uh, lost child, lost child

Yo, lost child, lost child
Yo, god bless, god bless
Thanks for watching
