Where is the magic? They got us al falling for their cheap tricks
When the truth is too tragic, we're expected to fix everything in the mix
Oh my mama never lied, she said son enjoy the ride
Can't be anything you want, just be happy how you is
Ain't much good in a beautiful sign
Unless you got beauty inside
Oh I got dirty laundry, so I use up the box before I'm standing on it
And before I get salty, be known I'm cleaning up well though I have taken my licks
Oh my daddy never lied, he said son enjoy the ride
Just remember where you're from, don't get caught up in that biz
Don't end up with a beautiful sign
Hung on a building with nothing inside
Get that chip off your shoulder
And as you get older
Maybe take a few trips around the block you reside
Ain't much good in a beautiful sign, unless you got beauty inside
