Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Typical story of an Oakland girl
Typical story heard around the world
Momma on her way, daddy up above
Out at fourteen, I guess it made me tough
Used to roll up on a block on the East Side, I
Crackin' up 40's by the seaside
Lose a **** every week to a drive-by
Whole bookshelf of stories behind these eyes, I
[Verse 2]
I don't mean, I don't mean for it to sound so damn common
I don't mean, I don't mean for it to sound like I'm jawsin'
But when I say it's hard to open up to you
It's hard to get close to you
I want it with everything in me
To one day just say I’m in love with you
[Verse 3]
But I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it, I am not (I am not)
I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it, hey (Hey)
I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it, I am not (I am not)
I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it (I’m not used to it)
[Verse 4]
One day, one day, one day
One day, one day, one day
[Verse 5]
All single mothers in my family
Don't know if you're really understandin' me
Never seen a **** be a real man, I
Never seen a **** with a real plan
And I still never been to a wedding
And I still see my family stressin'
Over sons who grew up with no daddies
And every generation was all just raised on my granny, but no
[Verse 6]
I don't mean, I don't mean for it to sound so damn common
I don't mean, I don't mean for it to sound like I'm jawsin'
But when I say it's hard to just side with you
It's hard to confide in you
I want it with everything in me
To one day just say that I ride with you
[Verse 7]
But I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it, I am not (I am not)
I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it, hey (Hey)
I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it, I am not (I am not)
I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it (I’m not used to it)
[Verse 8]
One day, one day, one day
One day, one day, one day
[Verse 9]
Sometimes I pop off 'cause it's all that I'm used to
Sometimes I pop one 'cause I have to
Sometimes I run from all my problems
Sometimes I make sure that I solve 'em
[Verse 10]
I don't mean, I don't mean for it to sound so damn common
I don't mean, I don't mean for it to sound so damn common
But I'm not used to it
[Verse 11]
But I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it, I am not (Baby, yeah)
I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it, hey (I'm not used to it)
I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it, I am not (Baby, I'm sorry)
I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it (I’m not, I’m not)
[Verse 12]
Yeah
Yeah
One day, one day, one day, one day
Yeah
Hey yeah
'Cause I'm not used to it
