In the City |
In my city is blacks and blocks |
With avenues and street tops |
Where people struggle to sleep, Ahk |
There’s trouble and beef, gold teeth, rocks |
Get thrown at the higher power, but don’t reach, pops |
Ain’t home, momma been long gone away |
So the children run stray |
Cannibalistic war play, it’s animalistic where I stay |
The devil wan' play |
And, too many contestants |
That’s ever day |
The level gon' stay where it’s at, stay strapped |
It’s the mantra recital, it conquers the Bible |
By any means, see survival |
When friends turn to rivals it’s liable |
For these confrontations to be homicidal |
A dog hollers back at the sirens |
The pain is so blinding |
Forgot we all diamonds |
Ain’t nothing uglier, ain’t nothing prettier |
Than corner stores, whores, drugs galore |
Exploitations core, guns and gore |
I abhor each metropolis between these shores |
And then I see it, faith in humanity restored |
An act so selfless that I break out in applause |
Giving so elvish that it must be Santa Claus |
In the city, dogs, foaming at the jaws |
That’s kept the voice of justice in its claws, get the gauze |
Because it can silence the loudest man |
Whether concrete, dirt, whether canal or sand |
You can black top, but the back drop remains |
With the same plots repeating like famed refrains |
The stains stare at ya |
Intensity of character |
Gotta be Darwinistic, |
Got a propensity to bury ya |
Home of the merriest |
Land of the nefarious |
Tomorrow is the city that will carry us, prepare |
