| Cops in the ghetto, they move like the Gestapo
|
| Drunk off their power and greed, they often hostile
|
| My little homie talked shit back and they beat him bad
|
| That boy in the hospital, now he’s lookin' bad
|
| And I’m with his mom and dad, we lookin' sad
|
| My own mama called me, said, «Baby, I’m just glad
|
| They ain’t put they hands on my child and kill his ass
|
| Please don’t rap about that shit 'fore they murder your black ass»
|
| It’s drones over Brooklyn, you blink, you could get took-en
|
| And now you’re understanding the definition of «Crooklyn»
|
| Pigs on parade but bacon fryin' and cookin'
|
| 'Cause kids tired of dying and walkin' round like they shook-en
|
| 'Cause we smoke sour to deal with the paranoia
|
| That they charge by the hour, can’t hire the Jewish lawyer
|
| 'Cause if you ain’t Jigga or Puff, you doing time
|
| And even then, you might get ten, word to Shyne
|
| (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
|
| Do dope, fuck hope
|
| (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey hey-hey)
|
| Do dope, fuck hope
|
| You don’t wanna look into my big crystal balls, suck the future
|
| We’ll moonwalk through flames with a brain on stupid
|
| Camouflage toughies’ll touch your tufts roughly
|
| Fluff your flat permanent, lump you up ruthless
|
| Then laugh while you’re humming the tune of bruised movements
|
| That took a few too many tabs to prove lucid
|
| (Everything compute?) Nah the truth is too tangled
|
| And even a satellite sees at one angle
|
| Burners radiate smoke 'til all’s motionless
|
| Hope? |
| Nah, ha ha, slow down with the jokin' shit
|
| So inappropriate, right behind your ears is a what?
|
| Look: ta-dah! |
| The sound of your hopelessness
|
| I can feel it too, from the ground rising up in us
|
| Right above the clouds, there’s a shroud there to smother us
|
| Make a sane man walk around with a blunderbuss
|
| Peal another round, make a sound that is thunderous
|
| (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
|
| Do dope, fuck hope
|
| (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey hey-hey)
|
| Do dope, fuck hope
|
| (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
|
| Do dope, fuck hope
|
| (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey hey-hey)
|
| Do dope, fuck hope
|
| Hey
|
| Hey |
