Damn, a ride to my block My block, that's heh [Incomprehensible] on my block
got a nigga sheddin' tears, reminiscin' on my past fears 'Cause was hectic for me last year It appears that I've been marked for death, my heartless The cause of my arrest, my life is stressed And no rest weary, my eyes stay teary For all the brothers are buried in the cemetery Shit is scary, how on black crime legendary But at unnecessary, I'm gettin' worried and closed caskets, the three strikes law is drastic And certain death for us, bastards
What can we do when arrested, but open fire? Life in the pen for me, 'cause I'd rather die But don't cry your despair I wonder if the Lord still cares, for us niggaz on And who if we survive The only time they notice a nigga is when he's clutchin' on a four My neighborhood ain't the 'Cause all little babies goin' crazy And they sufferin' in the and I swear it's like a trap But I ain't given up on the hood, it's all good when I go Hoes me love, niggaz give me props Forever hope it don't stop on my block
Livin' life is but a Hard is all we see On my Every block is kinda But on our block we still But on our we still play
Now shits constantly hot, on my block, it never to be gunshots Can't explain a pain, when her son drops Black male slippin' in hail, when we prevail? Fearin' jail but sales got me livin' well And the system's suicidal with this thug's Stayin' strapped forever strapped in this drug God me, 'cause I'm starvin' can't get a job So I resort to robberies my life is hard Can't sleep 'cause all the dirt make my hurt
Put in and shed tears for my dead peers Mislead from childhood where I went Till this day I still for a better way Can't but feel hopeless and heartbroke From the start I felt the 'cause I'm dark Couldn't quit the bullshit me represent Hit the bar and played the star everywhere I In my heart, I alone out here on my own I close my eyes and picture on my block
Livin' life is but a times is all we see On my block is kinda mean But on our block we still But on our we still play
And I can't help but wonder why, so many young had to die Caught from A.K's in the drive by Swollen pride and homicide don't cry for broken lives, mama come inside 'Cause our block is filled with to be a close knit community but now we're all cold strangers Time changes us to stone crack pipes All up and down the exterminatin' black life But I blame the dealers
My mama's welfare check has brought the man chrome wheels Shits real, I you feel, my tragedy A mother with a problem child, daddy free out pickin' up game, sippin' cheap liquor Gamin' the hooches, I can get to sleep with her It's a man's world, stayin' Fantasies of a nigga livin' phat, but held dreams can make the night seem hopeless Wide eyed and focus on my block
Livin' life is but a times is all we see On my block is kinda mean But on our we still play But on our block we still
And block parties in tha projects way past daylight A young learned to break night Used to play fight my homies but they stuck in the pen I send 'em ends, but tough on a friend In my mind I see the same ballin' Alcohol will make a nigga slip and fall, miss his call I know the young understand this up in this world where everythin' is scandalous I reminisce on tha fast times, past
Tryin' to cop a slice of pizza my last dime Can't explain just what attracts me to this game Gold chains some extra change, and the fame And what's is everybody knows my name Swear they all me And lots of cash make a nigga I hit the just to maintain, feelin' pain For all the niggaz that I lost to the game from my Thats
Livin' is but a dream times is all we see Rest in peace to all the muh'fuckers who passed Every block is mean From all the blocks I'm from But on our block we still
One twelve street, Avenue, New York, Uptown what I'm sayin? But on our we still play and Walt, my block, that's right But on our we still play 122nd and Morningside, my block, that's But on our block we play
Decatur Avenue, Baltimore, my block, right But on our block we still In the of Atlantic city, that's my block, that's right But on our block we still
