Hey you, c'mon up baby. Yeah, this is slight risky. Playa've respect right to you. Brooklyn his side L.A wula, yeah. . Look into the eyes of a madman.
Looks like the system tries to hold me down. But guess what? I ain't fucking around. You can't deny the pride that I have shown. I grind hard and I must hold my own.
Hate, fuck, fight, kill. Hate, fuck, fight, kill. Hate, fuck, fight, kill. Hate, fuck, fight, kill. . We teach our children how to act in this world. By living what they see on TV.
The cold winds of war, numb the nations soul. They taste the bitter fear as a grim future appears. . Criminal leaders building hate. Under siege the world segregates.
I'm living on hallowed ground. Right before my eyes the darkened skies hide muffled cries. Right before my eyes the hidden lies disguised as New York died.
I feel a weight that's pulling me down. But my reflex is to try to break out. Nature gives fight or flight syndrome. But my feet stay on the ground. That's how I've grown.
You keep me down. I don't need you no more. Bad feeling gone. You can't hurt me no more. . I've spent most of my life fuckin' around. Now it's getting me too down.
Walkin' five blocks everyday to earn my keep. It ain't easy when you're walkin' on these streets. Runnin' on a tight rope, it's a real thin line. Thinkin' that you might die this time.
Inner city strugglin' motherfuckin' rat race. Condemned pressure cooker that explodes in your face. Another neighborhood gets destroyed by the drug deal.
Where to run to, where to hide?. Much too full to swallow my pride. But I'm still haunted by something inside. As if another part of me has died. . Paralyzed, I close my eyes.
One day on the block. I was speaking to a close partner. A black Caddie rolled up. (I shot ya). I felt my soul reach back thru times. With my youth was cold and gritty.
Cut him. Somebody take flight from this stage to the crowd below. And expose a bloody nose from the the flows of your elbows. No crowd control. . This is no holds barred, we gonna brawl.
Each day I have another chance. To try and make things right. I awake from the nightmare. Another day closer to the grave and my fright is. In moderation with a personal affair.
This is the response after the passing of a dark storm. And exhales from 5 headed dragons. Swinging temperature to bring fright to Fahrenheit. Can I hit your hold dog pile and leave with a razor blade smile?.
If you were to ask for a favor. There is no such thing, just natural behavior. You see we're family inside. To say we're down with you, yo we say it with pride.
Rush, rush rush, rush. Rush, rush, rush. I hold your attention, protect yourself at all time. This is war, ready, aim, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire. .
Are you ready for a brother. With a mouth full of hand grenades?. Watch a brothers tongue serenade. With the grace of a razor blade over butter. In the middle of a heat wave, peep ways.
Government is not the solution to our problem. Government is the problem. . Apocalypse fills my head. Fire and smoke turns the sky blood red. Thermonuclear warhead.
