War Lyrics - Dj Clue

[Chorus] 

There's a war in the streets tonight 

And nobody's really feelin' alright 

I got a blunt for a chronic, a juice for my tonic 

I know now that I'm feelin' right if it goes down 

'Cause my third eye sees the lowdown 

And I know it's not my time to go now 

'Cause God's got my back in this showdown 

So I know we'll be alright 

Yeah, Brooks Brothers overcoat, know the ropes, smooth is holdin' those 

Briefcases, silk ties, slick as them older folks 

Silver fo'-fo', got no, 

My chauffer driver just left some of my colleagues smokin' that Cali

Look Back At Chester Bennington's Genre-Defying Musical Career 

Caught a glimpse of myself in the Barney's shop window 

Kinda' see my father's features creepin' in a little 

Got an office on Broadway, business in Jamaica 

Tell my daughter try the hardest so the best schools'll take her 

And I'm late to a dite with my wife, I realize 

I stopped to shop, had to get her some type surprise 

And I'm walkin' through it, chaos is all around me 

But God got me, no fear, through the fire pride stop 

[Chorus] 

There's a war in the streets tonight 

And all this drama's got me feelin' uptight 

I don't know what I'll do if I don't see my boo 

'Cause she's standin' on the corner of Linden Boulevard 

Holding our baby in her baby in her arms 

So hold on, your daddy's in sight

Yeah, Nine-four, Destiny opens her eyes 

For the first time, praise God, baby mom's cryin' 

Planned to be a strong black family 

But we both were too young, too strung, too much flashin' 

New come, I caught verbal a**a**in runnin' with 

Nothin' but the worst type, worst fight 

But we brought my baby home the first night 

Cursed like sailors, burst out the crib 

Ragin' in my new car bought from entertainment 

Champaign and gainin' clout fast, whiplash 

Did this b**** just pa** in the club pugged up, stupid a** 

Grabbed her by the pony tail, "never disrespect me" 

I'm a street vet, regret the sex, but not Desi 

Moved back to your grandma, I'm single, the land's mine 

She keeps the Benz, I'm all in the streets again 

Squeezin' the pen, released again, chart toppers, 

Hard-bottoms blessed the feet, now less baby mom's problems 

New woman, she's great, this a different world, 

Checkin' out my wife's chemistry with my little girl 

It's so amazin' playin', life is so crazy 

I've grown up the thankful for lessons God gave me 

[Chorus] 

There's a war in the streets tonight 

And nobody's really feelin' alright 

I got a blunt for a chronic, a juice for my tonic 

I know now that I'm feelin' right if it goes down 

'Cause my third eye sees the lowdown 

And I know it's not my time to go now 

'Cause God's got my back in this showdown 

So I know we'll be alright
