Lyrics to What Would You Do
What Would You Do Video:
Boys and girls wanna hear a true story?
Saturday night was at this real wild party
There was liquor overflowin' the cup, about
5 or 6 strippers tryin to work for a buck
so I took one girl outside with me, her name
was Loni, she went to Junior High with me,
I said, Why you up in there dancin for cash?
I guess a whole lots changed since I seen you last
She said...

What would you do?, if your son was at home
crying all alone on the bedroom floor, cuz he's hungry
and the only way to feed him is to sleep with a man
for a little bit of money, and his daddy's gone
in and out of lock down,
I ain't got a job now,
He's just smokin' rock now,
So for you this is just a good time
But for me this is what I call life

Girl you aint the only one to have a baby,
that's no excuse to be livin all crazy
so she looked me right square in the eye
and said everyday I wake up hopin' to die,
she said- nigga I know about pain cuz,
me and my sister ran away, so our daddy
couldn't rape us, before I was a teenager
I done been through more shit, you can't even
relate to!

What would you do if your son was at home
Crying all alone
On the bedroom floor,
Cause he's hungry and the only way to feed him is to
Sleep with a man for a little bit of money?
And his daddy's gone in and out of lock down,
I ain't got a job now,
He's just smokin' rock now,
So for you this is just a good time
But for me this is what I call life

What would you do?
Get up off my feet and stop making tired excuses
What would you do?
Get up off my feet and stop making tired excuses
What would you do?
Get up off my feet and stop making tired excuses
What would you do?
Get up off my feet!

What would you do if your son was at home
Crying all alone
On the bedroom floor,
Cause he's hungry and the only way to feed him is to
Sleep with a man for a little bit of money?
And his daddy's gone in and out of lock down,
I ain't got a job now,
He's just smokin' rock now,
So for you this is just a good time
But for me this is what I call life

What would you do if your son was at home
Crying all alone
On the bedroom floor,
Cause he's hungry and the only way to feed him is to
Sleep with a man for a little bit of money?
And his daddy's gone in and out of lock down,
I ain't got a job now,
He's just smokin' rock now,
So for you this is just a good time
But for me this is what I call life

What would you do if your son was at home
Crying all alone
On the bedroom floor,
Cause he's hungry
