| See them marching
|
| Marching home my Lord
|
| After fighting
|
| For the throne
|
| They in the streets all night
|
| All day
|
| They in the streets all night
|
| All day
|
| You hear the guns sing pah rum pum pum
|
| As arms say bombs away
|
| They were born in the belly of the beast
|
| Make a wrong turn streets is telling of a feast
|
| Where peace is a myth
|
| Where sleeps for the rich
|
| To eat is a gift
|
| Alarming
|
| How charming a child can be
|
| 'Till he’s rollin' down ya street in a gold caprice
|
| Trying eat on ya gold piece
|
| Leave sleep in a hole deceased
|
| I’m talking where you better pray right before you see daylight
|
| No days predictable
|
| There’s no two alike
|
| Everybody’s a-type
|
| Ready for the kill
|
| Babies need meals dolla dolla bills
|
| Over pills and such we trust
|
| Blue come through tough throw ya folk in cuffs
|
| Watch 'em grown up in the game till they old and rough
|
| You better learn when to fold or bluff
|
| They in the streets all night
|
| All day
|
| They in the streets all night
|
| All day
|
| You hear the guns sing pah rum pum pum
|
| As arms say bombs away
|
| They in the background mobbin'
|
| Creepin' through the slums
|
| Goons and goblins
|
| You think they lookin' for problems?
|
| They looking for change like trees in autumn
|
| And in they eyes you can see what fear do
|
| When every moment it is giving you an earful
|
| Become witness
|
| To the estranged children of the corn
|
| Let the wick flame
|
| Devil wings and halos
|
| In the innocence of the barbies and the legos
|
| They something like playdoh
|
| Getting fashioned getting molded since days old
|
| Getting game over games of dice
|
| A ghetto life such a famous plight
|
| To get the picture hope I frame it right
|
| Niggas for sale name your price
|
| The evil that men do
|
| And women do
|
| As observed by the little dudes in the living rooms
|
| It was always mommy catching a beat down
|
| Got tired of picking up her teeth so
|
| Into the streets now
|
| Maybe it’s the system that forced her in that position
|
| Or foster pops that wanted special kisses
|
| Whatever the decision now stranded on the concrete
|
| And granted a front row seat to watch hyenas compete
|
| Sights where they dwell places
|
| Height that bring em closer to the blood stains and shell cases
|
| Kiddies shouldn’t feel so down
|
| This little piggy seen deals go down
|
| Instead of watching clowns at the circus
|
| They watching out for clowns loud enough to get murdered on purpose
|
| Seen the crime scene before the cops did at seven or eight
|
| By nine ten, they can see the crime before it take place
|
| They in the streets all night
|
| All day
|
| They in the streets all night
|
| All day
|
| You hear the guns sing pah rum pum pum
|
| As arms say bombs away
|
| What we really need (really need)
|
| For victory (victory)
|
| In life
|
| 'Tween you and me
|
| Is history
|
| What we really need (really need)
|
| For victory (victory)
|
| In life
|
| 'Tween you and me
|
| History |
