I met a young brother, how young about eight 

He seemed intelligent and rather quite straight 

I greeted him, and struck a conversation 

To see if the youngster had some self-motivation 

Peace brother, what's your name, and how ya be 

He said I be soon coming off the currency 

I said gettin paid, he said yeah like my man's brother 

Who has a condo he shares with his baby's mother 

He said a condo beats my apartment 

With no lights and no gas and much backed up rent 

No hot water or heat, and invaded by plenty rats 

That'll eat up the average alleycat 

He said yeeahhhh boyyyeee, that's poverty 

I said word, I know and it bothers me 

'cause we are the victims, of a situation 

How wicked man, seperated 

A nation and got us cold-killin off one another 

(word-word, to the mother) 

It's getting hot, how hot, hotter than july 

'cause the murder and crime rate is rising very high 

For example, in my neighborhood, it's so hot 

I'm often woke up, from the alarming sound of a shot 

So I'm thinking what, is my neighborhood a trap 

Could this be the place marked x on the map? 

Now I'm spotted like a target, in the shooting gallery 

So I start to seek for a better salary 

So I can escape from where, from this ghetto life area 

Cause everyday you're getting scarier 

*blam blam* and scarier and scarier 

Causing mass hysteria, it's drama 

Talkin bout drama 

Photos 

Not to be bold and disrespect the homeless 

'cause I can see that they suffer from a long list 

From not having shelter, and out on the street 

Without a job and days without a bite to eat 

Yo I feel for those, but here's another side 

About some more people that's living on the outside 

Because of the fact that they chose the wrong way 

And it took em on a trip for a long day 

Got to the point you started stealing from your house 

Stalking the rooms late at night like a mouse 

Your family's upset and you've got to go 

When it's, five, below and we're ex-pecting snow 

And then you're on the train with a cup in your hand 

Kicking dirt, and making it look like sand 

Then after you run that game for a while 

You start sucking up tokens from out the turnstile 

Are you that desperate, just to get a hit 

Is it so effective that you won't quit, and yo 

Why do you come to me crying the blues? 

About you can't get a job well go sell some street news 

Then you can get straight and be real 

But you'd rather rob and steal 

And that's drama 

Talkin bout drama 

Not wonderama 

But I'm talkin bout drama 

Here what I'm sayin? 

I'm not talkin bout your mama 

Nahhhh, but I'm talkin bout drama 

Shaolin fist versus the llama
