Welcome to the world of a kid named Mikey
Who had only one reason to be hated be whitey
Raised on a farm outside of South Bend
Where they hated on him cause he was African American
But three years later, Mikey was the town pride
Basketball Mikey went and got himself a full ride
Earned his acceptance on the hardwood floor
And thats something white America would never ignore
Stop, hey, whats that sound
Everybody look whats goin down
Stop, hey, whats that sound
Everybody look whats goin down
Whats goin down tell me whats goin down
You wanna know just whats goin down
Whats goin down Ill tell ya whats goin down
You wanna know just whats goin down
Take a look around
Everything is comin down
Do you hear the subtle sounds
Of our morality slippin
People on the go
Well be reapin what we sow
Yeah we say we want to know
But I got my suspicions
Welcome to the world of a girl named Susie
Susies only crime was that she was born a cutie
Physically abused by her uncle and his friends
Alcohol let em all leave the house with grins
But Susie couldnt shake off the memories
Forced to find her own kind of remedy
A man-eater for the rest of her days
Three kids, three men, no daddies by eleventh grade
What be goin diggy down
When you find what you lost
But you lose what you found
