| You can hear the strings of the violin welcome me in
|
| Feels like the pain under your skin when you livin' in sin
|
| Sounds of a dirty syringe, heroin gon' swim
|
| Polluting the souls of the project kids
|
| Born to drug fiends, growin' up to jail bids
|
| Broken dreams and promises fuel gang violence and
|
| Pigs always show up when the guns is done firing
|
| Another family crying, another funeral
|
| Another retaliation, another burial
|
| And that cycle gonna continue until you see the God in you
|
| Kings and queens of the earth with a lethal virtue
|
| Crack rocks shape the block like an earthquake do
|
| Drive-bys in the hood with the plates removed
|
| Bandanna gun handle for the flag you choose
|
| Putting they conscience to sleep when them hammers is used
|
| Penetrate the penitentiary swallowing balloons
|
| Poison the prison system crushed glass in your food
|
| History repeats itself (The Cycle)
|
| Kids having kids killing kids (The Cycle)
|
| Drug addiction gettin' passed down through the umbilical
|
| Until you wake up you’re just a slave to the cycle
|
| You can hear the snatch of click like hollow tips when you fillin' the clip
|
| Hundred dollar spliffs spillin' the piff
|
| You don’t even get high anymore barely feelin' the lift
|
| You need a whole fifth of whisky to drift
|
| Take it back to the cycle that twist (?)
|
| Like a python to eat itself to muffle it’s hiss n a puddle of piss
|
| Self-destructive pitch drunk in the whip
|
| Jump the curb struck a bitch and hit her mother and her kid
|
| Ain’t nothing new under the solar system
|
| Cause even in the summer time the soul of the street is ice cold like winter
|
| Deep freeze like 40 below booze (?)
|
| And no more fights around here no more the shorty’s all shoot
|
| Three sixty round table
|
| Shot with a three-pound four Gs is piece and the cable (?)
|
| Different generation same shit though
|
| Same blood thirst, same ignorance
|
| Same motivation when the gun bursts
|
| It’s like a cycle
|
| Some will go home some will go witness
|
| Like somebody gotta lose in order for you to win
|
| You got your delicate predicate felons who couldn’t swim
|
| Got caught up in a tide now he’s facing a five to ten
|
| Try to game but who sayin' bucks you slang dusk (?)*
|
| Now you came up get *
|
| You can’t trust niggas around who permanently press you
|
| These niggas bank for they colors but they don’t really rep you
|
| Hang you out to dry, got they crooked eyes all in your spot
|
| Airing out your dirty laundry now they all in your socks
|
| Wolves in sheep clothing, heat holding, calling the cops
|
| Got the police rolling out of (beats) controlling the block
|
| You was on top now you in a box caged in
|
| Through the years full of cheer now your world’s caved in
|
| Born and raised in a family of made * ??
|
| A cycle’s still repeated at the day’s end and grey jims (?) |
