Lyrics

[Verse 1] Typical story of an Oakland girl Typical story heard around the world Mama on her way, daddy up above Out at 14, I guess it made me tough Used to roll up on the block on the east side I crack enough 40's by the seaside Lose a nigga every week to a drive-by Whole bookshelf of stories behind these eyes [Pre-Chorus] I, 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 [Chorus] But I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it, I am not 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 am not I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it (I'm not used to it) [Post-Chorus] One day, one day, one day One day, one day, one day [Verse 2] All single mothers in my family Don't know if you're really understanding me Never seen a nigga be a real man I never seen a nigga with a real plan And I still never been to a wedding And I just see my family stressing All the sons who grow up with no daddies in every generation Was all just raised on my granny but now [Pre-Chorus] I, 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 [Chorus] But I'm not used to it, I'm not use to it, I am not 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 am not I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it (I'm not used to it) [Post-Chorus] One day, one day, one day One day, one day, one day [Bridge] 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 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 [Chorus] 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) [Outro] Yeah, yeah, one day, one day, one day, one day Yeah, yeah, hey, yeah, 'cause I'm not used to it
