Children – Uncle Thuro! Could you read us a bedtime story? Please, Oh Please!!!
Thurogood – All right kids, yall get to bed. I’ll go grab the story book
Children – yea, yea
Thurogood – Yall tucked in?
Children – uh huh
Thurogood – Here we go.


She grew up hard and she grew up cold
Never felt safe in her own household
When her father came around he was outta control
And stole her virginity at 10 years old
Not a word was told, not a word was spoke
Cause she was scared of his hands wrapped around her throat
Years passed by so she gave up hope
Until she met a man that introduced her to coke
He said, “You are beautiful, you could be a model”
Next thing you know she’s poppin’ champagne bottles
Upgraded to a Benz from a beat up Hyundi
Monday to Sunday, struttin’ down the runway
Made a small fortune, been around the world
Alone in hotels she would think about the girl
From the past and the pain would still remain
So she popped a few pills just to kill the pain


She was a Dream Chaser, Party Girl, User
Lived for the moment, never thought about the future
She liked to drink and she liked to smoke
She would LOL when there wasn’t a joke
She was a Dream Chaser, Party Girl, User
Lived for the moment, never thought about the future
Depression in her eyes, smile on her face
Last night she went to sleep but she didn’t awake


It’s too real – And I really think you outta
Try to put yourself in the shoes of your daughter
Three kids at home, she has to dance at night
And she’s got more baggage than a Sampsonite
It’s too real – Too many women these days
Were never taught the principles on how to behave
Or raised in a fam with a daddy figure
That’s why a lot of these girls are trashy strippers
Good girls gone bad cause they’re mad at their dad
And they feel that sexuality is all they ever had
If you treat a women right she has unusual powers
But you got to be delicate with a beautiful flower
That’s Real - And I really think you outta
Try to put yourself in the shoes of your daughter
Your sister, your wife, your niece, or your mom
Because tomorrow they could all be gone


She was a Dream Chaser, Party Girl, User
Lived for the moment, never thought about the future
She liked to drink and she liked to smoke
She would LOL when there wasn’t a joke
She was a Dream Chaser, Party Girl, User
Lived for the moment, never thought about the future
Depression in her eyes, smile on her face
Last night she went to sleep but she didn’t awake

Children – oh boy that uncle Thuro is really weird. What do you think he means that ‘it’s too real’?

Thurogood – Knock ‘em out the box Thuro, out the box Thuro, knock ‘em out the box (repeated)
