Biography:
City High is an American R&B/hip hop trio consisting of rappers/singers Ryan Toby, Robbie Pardlo and Claudette Ortiz. Originally signed to Wyclef Jean's Booga Basement imprint as a duo, the group became a trio when Jean realized that they resembled another group on his roster, The Product G&B, too much. Ortiz was then added to the group after contributing her vocals to the group's first big hit, What Would You Do from the Life soundtrack in 1999. City High drew comparisons to their mentor's supergroup

[Verse]
G D Em C
Boys and girls wanna hear a true story
Saturday night I was at this real wild party
They had the liquor overflowing the cup
About five or six strippers trying to work for a buck
Then I took one girl outside with me
Her name was Loni she went to junior high with me
Said why you up in there dancing for cash
I guess a whole lots changed since I seen you last
She said
[Chorus]
G D Em C
What would you do if your son was at home
Crying all alone on the bedroom floor
'Cause he's hungry
And the only way to feed him is to
Sleep with a man for a little bit of money
And his daddys gone
Somewhere smoking rock now
In and out of lock-down
I ain't got a job now
So for you this is just a good time
But for me this is what I call life
[Verse]
Girl you ain't the only one with a baby
That's no excuse to be living all crazy
Then she looked me right square in the eye
And said everyday I wake up hoping to die
She said nigga I know about pain 'cause
Me and my sister ran away so my daddy couldn't rape us
Before I was a teenager
I done been through more sh
You can't even relate ta
[Chorus]
What would you do if your son was at home
Crying all alone on the bedroom floor
'Cause he's hungry
And the only way to feed him is to
Sleep with a man for a little bit of money
And his daddy's gone
Somewhere smoking rock now
In and out of lock-down
I ain't got a job now
So for you this is just a good time
But for me this is what I call life
[Verse]
Then she said
What would you do if?
Get up on my feet and let go of every excuse
What would you do if?
'Cause I wouldn't want my baby to go through what I went through
What would you do if?
Get up on my feet and stop making up tired excuses
What would you do if?
Girl I know if my mother could do it baby you can do it!
[Chorus]
What would you do if your son was at home
Crying all alone on the bedroom floor
'Cause he's hungry
And the only way to feed him is to
Sleep with a man for a little bit of money
And his daddy's gone
Somewhere somking rock now
In and out of lock-down
i ain't got a job now
So for you this is just a good time
But for me this is what I call life
Just play this over and over again. Its the same for the chorus and the verse. Listen to
