[VERSE 1] Yesterday, I rolled through the hood And I seen somethin´ And it hurt me Yesterday, I rolled throught the hood
And I seen somethin´ And it hurt me You were talkin´ to that woman Like you could show her somethin´ And I didn´t know what to do You pulled out your pen and paper And I know it your number you gave her I never thought this bad dream would come true

Yesterday, I rolled through the hood And I seen somethin´ And it hurt me Yesterday, I rolled throught the hood And I seen somethin´ And it hurt me You were talkin´ to your boys And though y´all didn´t make noise You tapped him and you pointed at this woman Then she turned around As if she´d been found And all I know my heart started jumpin´

We´ll be livin´ tomorrow And we´ll be laughin´ about today...today
