The Jeffersons...

Goodbye...
to all you loud talking
Cussing to make a simple point
Two-fer drinking
Weed smoking all day long with children around
Drinking out of a brown bag
Sitting in your car playing your radio  
Grown ass man cutting the grass for five dollars
Sitting on the front porch with a grill and on kitchen chairs
House in disrepair living
Garbage can stealing
Rude for no reason
Working just long enough to collect unemployment
Card party having to get your rent together
Can I borrow this or that till my check comes
   (this would include my Sam's card)
 
Fighting outside because you either stole, lied or cheated
and have the nerve to think the other person was wrong for confronting you
 
Flashing some breast in hopes of getting your grass cut
 
Selling Dinners, dvds , fruit cups and or clothes out of the trunk of your car
 
False law suit filling  
 
Collecting SSI for your child's disability that you caused  
FOLKS
 
While I'm not going far  
I'm getting away from you
 
You'd consider this an uppity move
but I have no east side to go to
Your cousins live there
 
You feel that I'm leaving my true roots to embrace a lifestyle that will never embrace me
Nothing could be farther from the truth
The only thing I'm trying to leave is you
 
I've an entire world to explore and share with loved ones
It's that world that will embrace me
 
Moving on up to the eastside
To a delux apartment in the sky
Peace
