Straight poverty death is in my backyard[00:01:07]

D**e dealers get fifty G's a pack[00:01:10]

While my teacher don't really give a damn about a black child[00:01:12]

And the grown folks say 'tell the truth' then act fowl[00:01:15]

Say no to drugs hidin' all they crack vials[00:01:18]

And talk all about peace and love and God[00:01:20]
