Livin' in the with the bums, the rats and the stray cats Dogs with the rabies, little are having babies Juveniles act every footstep you take On corner there's a crack vial
Pushers, dealers, crack heads are Now the in jail, all the crack heads are dying My man got AIDS, he was hit To get laid, he paid a crack head for a five quick job
In the ghettos stuff you have to find A beer relax my mind but I still pack my nine 'Cause I'm aware of all evil and I'm living in a rat like settlement Sometimes hard to manage I grab a take a sip and let the mental do the damage
Yeah, I'm and my eyes are red But it's better than a Uzi and a brother man is See out of ten are black on black crimes Four out of nine were killed before prime
The five wanted vengeance So now five out of five are a jail sentence Ask the Giant, been through it So when I to the top, I say the ghetto made me do it And I how to strive, huh Born and raised in the so you know I can survive

Chapter two of every black man's and diseases, put in our society Kill another and it's bravery Come on one step backwards into mental slavery
Yeah, you best believe that's You got black on black then police brutality Yeah, bad but what makes it sad Is that I'm harassed by a black man with a badge
He's sellin' out because two-faced But you only got one race, you only got a face He's sellin' out times is hard And old ladies are gettin' robbed I can't find a job
to the top and the other man will drop And gettin' treated like savages will You got the plan, but goin' about it the wrong way Divided is the way united is the strong way
Too many died for us to a pause So let's all get and stop tryin' to get yours Walk a straight but it's so easy to stumble So weak minds in the concrete jungle
Get chance to sell drugs, you don't pass up But a fast buck will wind up to be your last It's a shame, you're deaf dumb and blind Did it ever cross your mind, killin' off your own kind?
And pretty soon even you be a goner Easy access to guns, liquor stores on corner Street knowledge is a must, you never learn You're rough but mentally you gotta be tough We shall overcome no doubt The runaway slave is peace and I'm out
