We livin life close to the edge don't push [00:00:32]
But this ain't eighty three and it's not the cold crush [00:00:35]
It's kids on the street strapped huffin that kush [00:00:38]
They eyein the next cat livin all plush [00:00:40]
I guess frustration make a brother do what he must [00:00:43]
What's the combination that can make a human erupt [00:00:45]
Team leaders gettin mutinied up who couldn't read [00:00:47]
The signs thinkin the day and times is [00:00:50]
Indeed we blast refuse to kiss a** [00:00:53]
Quick fast ready to mash cause of a bugged out past [00:00:55]
Swallow the pain follow the mental terrain [00:00:58]
It takes a hell of a man nowadays to maintain [00:01:00]
Garments bloodstained face bruised and battered [00:01:03]
Our eyes reflect the agony of dreams that were shattered [00:01:05]
And they love it when we wild out and kill our own [00:01:08]
But the greater responsibility yes is still our own [00:01:10]
To all my people just lift your fist [00:01:13]

How you want it the bullet or the microchip [00:01:18]

That somebody do somethin soon and let's examine [00:01:35]
The facts behind the violent attacks [00:01:38]
Behind the daily gunplay the coc*ine and the crack [00:01:41]
Thug season what's the reason for the treason [00:01:43]
Everybody's gotta eat some gotta resort to thievin [00:01:45]

Yo from the time they eyes open til the clock strike death [00:02:11]
Brothers is stressed walkin around holdin they chest [00:02:13]
They got the government surveyin they steps and can't breathe [00:02:16]
They dynamitin them projects to smithereens [00:02:18]
Money comin but them days too few and far between [00:02:21]
You tryin to taste just what the world's offering ya'mean [00:02:23]
I seen enough to make a grown man scream [00:02:26]
Brothers thirsty and hongry to get that thing [00:02:28]
Too many tears of pain too many years of struggle [00:02:31]
Too many drops of blood too many problems to juggle [00:02:33]
Too few jobs available too few schools equipped [00:02:36]
Too few role models just gangsters and pimps [00:02:38]
Will you succumb will your heart grow numb [00:02:41]
Or will you save the world and use your mind like a gun [00:02:43]
I'm the one I turn a stick up kid to a soldier [00:02:46]
