[Verse 1 - Ludacris]
Now little Lisa is only 9 years old
She is trying to figure out why the world is so cold
Why shes all alone and they never met her family
Mamas always gone and she never met her daddy
Part of her is missing and nobody will listen
Mama on drugs getting high up in the kitchen
Bringing home men at different hours of the night
Starting with some laughs--usually ending in a fight
Sneak into her room while her mama is knocked out
Trying to have his way and little Lisa says 'ouch'
She tries to resist but then all he does is beat her
Tries to tell her mom but her mama don't believe her
Lisa is stuck up in the world on her own
Forced to think that hell is a place called home
Nothin else to do but get some clothes and pack
She says she is about to run away and never come back.

[Verse 2 - Ludacris]
Little Nicole is only 10 years old
She is steady trying to figure why the world is so cold
Why shes not pretty and nobody seems to like her
Alcoholic step dad always wanna strike her
Yells and abuses, leaves her with some bruises
Teachers ask questions she making up excuses
Bleeding on the inside, crying on the out
Its only one girl really knows what she about
Her name is lil Stacy and they become friends
Promise that they'll always be tight till the end
Until one day lil Stacy got shot
A drive by bullet went stray up on her block
Now Nicole stuck up in the world on her own
Forced to think that hell is a place called home
Nothing else to do but get her clothes and pack
She says she is about to run away and never come back.

[Verse 3 - Ludacris]
Little Erica is eleven years old
Shes steady trying to figure why the world is so cold
So she pops X to get rid of all the pain
Plus she is having sex with a boy whos sixteen
Emotions run deep and she thinks shes in love
So theres no protection hes using no glove
Never thinking about the consequences of her actions
Living for today and not tomorrows satisfaction
The days go by and her belly gets big
The father bails out he aint ready for a kid
Knowing her mama will blow it all outta proportion
Plus she lives poor so no money for abortion
Erica is stuck up in the world on her own
Forced to think that hell is a place called home
Nothin else to do but get her clothes and pack
She say she is about to run away and never come back.
