This Is Why We Ride (Explicit) - Body Count[00:00:00]
Written by:Tracy Marrow[00:00:00]
People always wanna know[00:00:01]
The reason for what they consider senseless violence in the hood[00:00:03]
I'ma break it down for you this is why we ride[00:00:08]
And this is why we ride[00:00:18]
And this is why we ride[00:00:31]
I gotta say this clear I gotta say this loud[00:00:38]
I should've been dead don't know how I'm here now[00:00:41]
I should've been dead damn it forty years ago[00:00:44]
How the f**k did I survive something that I'll never know[00:00:47]
I played the crack game gang bang guns[00:00:50]
Motherf**kers told me I'd never see twenty one[00:00:53]
I come from LA deep in the heart of the hood[00:00:57]
Every night the bullets fly this shit ain't Hollywood[00:01:00]
Could be your best friend mother or brother dead[00:01:03]
Cops can't do shit these streets are blood red[00:01:06]
So we leave the block and we load the guns[00:01:09]
And we want revenge until revenge comes[00:01:13]
And this is why we ride[00:01:18]
And this is why we ride[00:01:33]
I made it out the hood I got a great life[00:01:48]
But them bullets fly every motherf**king night[00:01:51]
Another kid dies every motherf**king night[00:01:54]
Another mother cries every motherf**king night[00:01:57]
Ghettoes of deep crack made to never escape[00:02:00]
A place to store the poor made to never escape[00:02:03]
They're all over the world people go to die[00:02:06]
Murders go unsolved I understand why[00:02:10]
They remove hope and then we sell dope[00:02:13]
Pain in poverty has us at each other's throat[00:02:16]
Families are broken and so we gangbang[00:02:20]
A bit form of unity but most love some of us ever seen[00:02:22]
And this is how we die[00:02:28]
And this is why we ride[00:02:43]
Oh man[00:03:11]
Coming up and surviving in the ghetto[00:03:14]
The smallest argument goes from little drama to big drama[00:03:18]
Next thing you know somebody's dead[00:03:29]
I don't think you can understand[00:03:33]
If you've never been in your streets and[00:03:36]
Held your best friend in your arms[00:03:39]
Your child in your arms and watch them breathe their last breath[00:03:43]
Because somebody shot them dead in the streets[00:03:50]
You ain't thinking of calling the police[00:03:56]
You want revenge[00:04:00]
And you want it now[00:04:03]
I gotta be honest with you[00:04:07]
If somebody were to kill me[00:04:11]
Shoot me right now[00:04:13]
My last words wouldn't be peace[00:04:17]
It would be get those motherf**kers[00:04:21]
And this is why we ride[00:04:23]
This song is dedicated to all of you[00:04:27]
Who has lost somebody to street violence[00:04:32]
And this is why we ride[00:04:52]
And this is how we die[00:05:04]
