Within The Walls Of Chaos |
Murder, drugs, cash, and greed |
It touches everyone and everything |
Within the walls there’s no escaping |
the disease |
Sidwalks turn to pharmacies |
All the pimps and pushers territories |
Dollars pouring in from the victims |
trapped within |
Schoolyard’s a place of sorrow |
Pray your children live to see tomorrow |
A place where mothers cry, and kiss their |
dying sons goodbye |
Living in a state of fear |
Afraid of everything they see or hear |
Someone they love may get shot |
For drugs they never even bought! |
Violence is a way of life |
Revenge delivered with a gun or knife |
Paybacks are a bitch |
They’ll leave you dying in a ditch |
Caught in the hypnotic spell |
Their life’s story they’ll never life to tell |
In a hazy curtain, they can’t see the |
end is certain |
Imprisoned by narcotic chains |
Life for some will never be the same |
Trapped in walls of glass |
Hoping that this all will pass |
But some will find their way outside |
Face the evil, eyes open wide |
Break the bonds that pull you in Escape the hell that thrives… |
Within the walls |
Of chaos and despair |
Most are unemployed |
Living on welfare |
Prowling the halls |
The vultures come to feed |
On the flesh of those |
Who are enslaved to the need |
The final curtain falls |
And no one sheds a fear |
Their pleas for help always seem to fall |
Upon deaf ears |
Within the walls of chaos they forgot |
That dignity and sanity |
Are things that can’t be bought |
With every passing day |
Another life is cast astray |
Wear the wrong colors |
And you might get blown away |
Turn of a page |
Another name’s crossed off the list |
Shot between the eyes |
With a rig clenched in his fist |
Driven to the grave |
Ruled by need for kicks |
Extract their own gold teeth |
To satisfy their fix |
There’s cracks in the foundation |
The time will soon arrive |
When the walls will crumble down |
And bury everyone alive! |
Within the walls… |
Within the walls of chaos… |
Within the walls… |
Within the walls of chaos… |
Within the walls… |
Within the walls of chaos! |
