Yeah, Mike Jones, who? Mike Jones
Where will I be at 5 years from now
5 years from now
5 years from now

Where would I go, who would I see in 5 years from now?
Tell me how will I live
Will I raise some kids, yeah, 5 years from now?
Will I be locked down or will I be underground, yeah
5 years from now?
Tell me what my future hold, it scares me not to know
What I'ma be doin' 5 years from now

I live life daily, scared to make babies
It's hard to plan your future when the world goin' crazy
Kids with no food, who can they turn to
Beside they own people, I swear this world evil

They see us on TV, they thinkin' we should be
The main ones providin' for our community
But the government is paid, dishin' out minimum wage
They don't care about the streets as long as they get paid

My advice is please vote, don't take it as a joke
'Cause 5 years from now the world could be gone in smoke
Now everybody's gone 'cause they ain't stand strong
An' vote for a leader that can lead our country home

We got people in Iraq, tell me why they can't come home
If you care about your future, please listen to the song
We got people in Iraq, tell me why they can't come home
If you care about your future, please listen to the song

Where would I go, who would I see in 5 years from now?
Tell me how will I live
Will I raise some kids, yeah, 5 years from now?
Will I be locked down or will I be underground, yeah
5 years from now?
Tell me what my future hold, it scares me not to know
What I'ma be doin' 5 years from now

I think about my homies, I think about my momma
I think about what's goin' on, I think about the drama
I think about the world, I think about my life
5 years from now, will I have me a wife?

Will I have me some kids? Tell me how will I live
Will I be doin' wrong or will I live positive?
Will I live to get a Grammy or will I be with my granny?
5 years from now, I don't think you understand me

I'm tryin' to hold on, I'm tryin' to stay strong
It's hard not knowin' what's really goin' on
But I try to maintain, keep my head in the game
When **** ain't lookin' too good, I pray for better thangs

I keep the Lord on my side 'til the day I die
Will I blow up big? I don't know but I'll try
I keep the Lord on my side 'til the day I die
Will I blow up big? I don't know but I'll try

Where would I go, who would I see in 5 years from now?
Tell me how will I live
Will I raise some kids, yeah, 5 years from now?
Will I be locked down or will I be underground, yeah
5 years from now?
Tell me what my future hold, it scares me not to know
What I'ma be doin' 5 years from now

How could you think about the future
When the world goin' crazy?
Kids havin' kids, they too young to make babies
I'm livin' in the world so sheisty an' shady
Mike Jones, Jones

5 years from now, will I be dead, boxed up?
Or in the pen for ten like Akon, 'Locked Up'?
Tell me how would I live, will I have me some kids?
Will I blow up big in showbiz 5 years from now?

Where would I go, who would I see in 5 years from now?
Tell me how will I live
Will I raise some kids, yeah, 5 years from now?
Will I be locked down or will I be underground, yeah
5 years from now?
Tell me what my future hold, it scares me not to know
What I'ma be doin' 5 years from now

Where would I go?
Where would I stay 5 years from now?
It scares me not to know
It scares me not to know, yeah
