Talkin bout drama[00:00:04]
I met a young brother how young about eight[00:00:10]
He seemed intelligent and rather quite straight[00:00:13]
I greeted him and struck a conversation[00:00:15]
To see if the youngster had some self motivation[00:00:18]
Peace brother what's your name and how ya be[00:00:21]
He said I be soon coming off the currency[00:00:24]
I said gettin paid he said yeah like my man's brother[00:00:26]
Who has a condo he shares with his baby's mother[00:00:29]
He said a condo beats my apartment[00:00:32]
With no lights and no gas and much backed up rent[00:00:34]
No hot water or heat and invaded by plenty rats[00:00:37]
That'll eat up the average alleycat[00:00:40]
He said yeeahhhh boyyyeee that's poverty[00:00:42]
I said word I know and it bothers me[00:00:45]
Cuz we are the victims of a situation[00:00:47]
How wicked man seperated[00:00:50]
A nation and got us cold killin off one another[00:00:53]
Word word to the mother[00:00:56]
It's getting hot how hot hotter than July[00:00:58]
Cuz the murder and crime rate is rising very high[00:01:00]
For example in my neighborhood it's so hot[00:01:03]
I'm often woke up from the alarming sound of a shot[00:01:06]
So I'm thinking what is my neighborhood a trap[00:01:08]
Could this be the place marked x on the map[00:01:11]
Now I'm spotted like a target in the shooting gallery[00:01:13]
So I start to seek for a better salary[00:01:17]
So I can escape from where from this ghetto life area[00:01:19]
Cause everyday you're getting scarier[00:01:23]
*blam blam*and scarier and scarier[00:01:26]
Causing mass hysteria it's drama[00:01:28]
Talkin bout drama[00:01:35]
Not to be bold and disrespect the homeless[00:01:40]
Cuz I can see that they suffer from a long list[00:01:43]
From not having shelter and out on the street[00:01:46]
Without a job and days without a bite to eat[00:01:48]
Yo I feel for those but here's another side[00:01:51]
About some more people that's living on the outside[00:01:54]
Because of the fact that they chose the wrong way[00:01:56]
And it took em on a trip for a long day[00:01:59]
Got to the point you started stealing from your house[00:02:02]
Stalking the rooms late at night like a mouse[00:02:04]
Your family's upset and you've got to go[00:02:07]
When it's five below and we're ex pecting snow[00:02:09]
And then you're on the train with a cup in your hand[00:02:12]
Kicking dirt and making it look like sand[00:02:15]
Then after you run that game for a while[00:02:17]
You start sucking up tokens from out the turnstile[00:02:20]
Are you that desperate just to get a hit[00:02:23]
Is it so effective that you won't quit and yo[00:02:25]
Why do you come to me crying the blues[00:02:28]
About you can't get a job well go sell some street news[00:02:30]
Then you can get straight and be real[00:02:34]
But you'd rather rob and steal[00:02:36]
And that's drama[00:02:38]
Talkin bout drama[00:02:43]
Not wonderama[00:02:49]
But I'm talkin bout drama[00:02:54]
Here what I'm sayin[00:02:58]
I'm not talkin bout your mama[00:02:59]
Nahhhh but I'm talkin bout drama[00:03:04]
Shaolin fist versus the llama[00:03:19]
Talkin bout drama[00:03:26]
