Them niggas we played? Now we don't even speak
Age four in my mother's shoes, swore I could sing
Hate it that I'm in the same game as them
While some say it's rude
Have you been where I've been?
About to forfeit high price life, I can't afford it
My life
'Cuz it ain't always what it seem on TV
Learnin' how to seduce niggaz, takin' they loot
But he never showed up
How we could make it real big, do our thing together
Do ya'll know what it be like?
Nightmares, headlines, "Rapper found slain"
Can you go where I go?
Don't be lovin' niggas more than yaself
But I'm a woman, so I'm a bitch, simple as that
Do ya see what I see?
Can you go where I go?
Now ya'll see what it's like, ya'll don't wanna be me
All I needed was love, all I wanted was love
Can you go where I go?
Let him do his thing, I'm the one he's lovin'
Shit, ya'll don't wanna take my place, cashin' cases
Hearts bruised, then been way I been, keep it movin'
My life, a black girl's ordeal my life
Went our seperate ways, seperate lives
Let 'em roam, a dog always finds his way home
Can you go where I go?
Loneliness, sorrow, confusion and pain
My life, do ya feel what I feel?
While I'm on tour is my man cheatin' just for spite?
Do ya see what I see?
Can you go where I go?
Have you been where I've been?
And if you only knew I hold my minks at nights with cheap
Daddy's girl, in his wildest dreams
Quickly, got involved with this money lifestyle
I'm here to show ya'll, havin' a kid ain't meanin' nuthin'
You was my sister, who used to dream together
Do ya see what I see?
My girls ain't the same, guess it's 'cuz the fame
Cars and diamond rings, and nice braids, flaunt it
My life
Lost friendship for pride, playin' the game
Do ya'll know what it feels like?
Shit, but this is my nine to five ya'll
What tha fuck he in it for?
Do ya see what I see?
At the age of fourteen, introduce to coops
Uh, confused, I ain't asked to be born
My life, a black girl's ordeal my life
Do ya'll know what it be like?
Or no other hands can hold me right
Do ya'll know what it feels like?
My life, do ya feel what I feel?
Do ya see what I see?
The finer things, all kinda things, power, money
Sometimes I wanna slit my wrist and end my life ya'll
This life is no joke, got us havin' to broke
The niggas who ain't care, just like daddy
Do ya see what I see?
That ain't keepin' him, specially if he in love with another chick
Said he think that lil' Ing will be illest in this rap -thing
Resented them, just the scent of 'em made me hurl
A high price for this 'High price' life
Mad 'cuz I made it, now friends intimidated
All my girls cross the world that feel what I feel
Then you stuck with the babymother shit
Double standards, call him a Mack, call me a hoe
Have you been where I've been?
And even as a little girl I was doin' my thing
Specially the baller ones tryin' to buy me with pearls
Nigga so dumb, shoulda used a condom
Do ya'll know what it feels like?
With mo' fame than them, they know who they are
Huh, Thelma and Louise together, remember them days?
Spit in faces, I never seem falsely accused
I would pimp for them, became demented, then men?
Lack of love had me fallin' for thugs
Bitches smile in my face and throw dirt on my name
Ask mommy every day, when daddy gon' come?
My life, do ya feel what I feel?
Have you been where I've been?
For this 'High price' life, it's the price I pay
Have you been where I've been?
If it wasn't for my moms, I'd drown in this pain
Have you been where I've been?
Do ya'll know what it be like?
But if I was a dude, they all be amused
My life, a black girl's ordeal, my life
If he ain't care, why should they?
My life
Say I'm in it for the dough, but tell me
The Gucci boots with the G's on it
Wanted it all, now it's all mine
