[Verse 1]
Reporting live from the bottom let me tell you bout Erica
She'd be a doctor or something if she just cared enough
She just broke up with Joseph cause he wanted to marry her
And he ain't got his own shit she say he embarrass her
But they got a lil girl he just wanna take care of her
She called the state up and said he never be there enough
Damn so they went and put him on child support
And he ain't coming around no more
But she don't give a fuck she boutta find her a star
She fucking them dope boys she hopping up outta cars
She go to the club soon as 12'oclock hit
And she going home with
Whoever buy out the bar
Damn you'd think her moms tell her slow down baby just chill
But mama said it ain't love if he ain't paying ya bills
Thats ill I mean thats the woman that raised her
The way she came up
Could yo really blame her

Reporting live from the bottom
Reporting live from the bottom
Reporting live from the bottom Ain't no signs from the fathers
Either they walked out or them guys came and got em
If you listen close you can hear the crys from their daughters
And the sons they just happy that their moms didn't follow

[Verse 2]
Repoting live from the bottom my n***a Kevin he all in
It really ain't nothing you can tell him he balling
I mean his whip mean
And he keep his kicks clean
Shit he been paying bills since he was 16
Now he 20 his moms tell him he bugging
And he don't understand it man
Use to live hand to mouth now they living hand to hand
Police ran up in that spot swear they didn't stand a chance
He pulled that 357 made em do the hammer dance
And now he too legit to quit he pulled up his pants and ran
An officer died in that ambulance
In deep shit
He ain't hit the precinct
But he ain't had a good night sleep since
He tensed his uncle tell him its nothing lil n***a you bitching
And you know what happen to you they hear that you snitching
Just listen thats his uncle yo, And thats the one that raised him
So how he came up could you really blame him
[Hook]

[Verse 3]
Reporting live from the bottom
You ever looked in the eyes of a guy from the bottom
He just wanna cry, he look the sky
And he start questioning God I'm thinking how could I stop him
When everything he worked for never seem to work shit
School for 6 years and never learned shit
Use to think its priceless and now he think its worthless
Because he did it to death but he ain't never earn shit
I tryna tell him it'll pay off
He like X don't bring that shit this way dog
"Working this job for 3 years took no days off
And right out of the fucking blue I got layed off"
Damn here he go he feeling like here we go
The only woman he loved died over a year ago
See thats his grandmother she the one that raise him
So if he gave up could you really blame him
It don't matter cause he'd blame his self
Offer him anything he wouldn't take your help
Some n***as looking for crutches he tryna brace hisself
Tryna imagine the way he felt
He was working hard just to keep his lights on
While Kevin and Erica party all night long
Listen I'm tryna get you to focus in
They all at the bottom he the only one that notices
