Music Box Lyrics - So Uncool - Keke Palmer

Verse 1 

Listen up, turn your box up, gather all around 

This one's strictly for the ghetto 

Some of y'all recognize, some of y'all won't 

Better pay attention and listen close 

There was an old lady who lived in my hood that sold freeze pops for a quarter 

Had so many kids that I lost count, more sons than she had daughters 

And every night before they would fall asleep 

They would pray for shelter and food to eat 

But the landlord huffed and blew the house down and now they out on the streets 

And now she cleans, she mops the tears they drop 

The only sound that drowns it out comes from my music box 

Chorus

So just let the music play (Play) 

Don't let it stop (No) 

It ain't easy growing up in the hood but I got my music box 

When the sirens sound, wind it up 

Or the shots ring down, just wind it up 

cause I got my music box 

Verse 2 

There was an old man, he lived in the hood 

Had rubber bands, dimes, and quarters worth a block put him away 

Left his wife and kids and a sexist teenage daughter 

Couldn't shake the reflections, starved to perfection 

I've seen it all before 

Now she ignores the advice of a kid folk 

Tell her stay home, but she creeping out the back door 

And now she pays the cost, young girl so lost 

I feel your pain, try to maintain 

Wind up your music box

So just let the music play (Play) 

Don't let it stop (No) 

It ain't easy growing up in the hood but I got my music box 

When the sirens sound, wind it up 

Or the shots ring down, just wind it up 

cause I got my music box
