| I watch what's going on and realize it's all wrong
|
| I see they eat for the money
|
| Because money has this A of degrading
|
| For all young people from all neighborhoods
|
| The poor, the rich, hahaha!
|
| Street dude and you know it
|
| The street made me Kery James the melancholy
|
| I'm not going to complain, some have become alcoholics
|
| Others we end up dealing narcotics
|
| Flood our streets with all kinds of toxic substances
|
| Initially very worrying were the forecasts
|
| All the more disconcerting are the diagnoses
|
| I see they kill each other in a methodical way
|
| It does not prevent a cop from sleeping, that I am categorical
|
| Mine live a galley, it has to be rumored
|
| From kids, they no longer seem, they become brutes
|
| The use of violence becomes automatic
|
| Systematic becomes the use of the automatic
|
| When their hopes die, their dreams die
|
| The love of money eats them away like a tumor
|
| Some have taken the dollar as their religion
|
| Others like in those whodunnits where most end up jailbroken
|
| Money makes them the A of arrogant
|
| Because money has this A of degrading
|
| All are convinced that they could not live without
|
| So at the risk of dying they wear the balaclava and the gloves
|
| They wear the balaclava and the gloves even at the risk of dying
|
| No matter the price, what they want is to own
|
| They are obsessed, sometimes even possessed
|
| And most of the time only go after the dispossessed
|
| They disappear like in the Bermuda Triangle
|
| They don't respect anything anymore, on the pretext that life is getting rough
|
| All claim to want to make a career in the illicit
|
| Market more saturated than the record industry
|
| One of them just has to stick their head out of the water
|
| For them to hasten to drown him in the name of ghetto law
|
| Then through and through, they shout, claim unity
|
| While in their hearts took place animosity
|
| Home folks have become worse than statesmen
|
| Honestly expect me to report on their condition
|
| The devil made them believe that the end justifies the means
|
| They don't want your job, they don't care about the honest citizen
|
| They are disconnected from reality
|
| Many get killed, for them it becomes commonplace
|
| Scrupulous people are becoming rare, dying out
|
| The scoundrels abound, they certainly on the way to expansion
|
| Money makes them arrogant, sometimes even violent
|
| They are convinced that they could not live without
|
| Makes them arrogant, sometimes even violent
|
| They are convinced that they could not live without
|
| Started from the bottom, you aim for the top
|
| And for that forbids it, you commit it
|
| You don't have it for yourself, you want respect
|
| The reputation of yours, you compromise
|
| You take the pactol and you break it, you promise
|
| But you would have done that already, if you could
|
| And in the closet the price of the crime, you pay it
|
| Outside, with your money, it's your head that we pay
|
| Sometimes you swear you'll never settle down
|
| Some hear you, aren't you afraid they'll kill you?
|
| In the street it doesn't play anymore and that you know it
|
| You're far from good but there's always a worse one
|
| It's the riches you want the A to access
|
| Even if it leaves your family the A of overwhelmed
|
| The money you want the A to have
|
| You're not far from possessing the A of miser
|
| So you attack the hand the A of army
|
| You're not very far from the A of assassinated
|
| How many leave the benches of the school for those of the city?
|
| But how many are sheltering their families away from the neighborhood?
|
| Their eyes shine for the money like they're in love with it
|
| For him they are not afraid to cause fears and cries
|
| Yet some of them are sons of honest people
|
| What little they have, their parents earned it by working
|
| So I dedicate this to all those who get up early
|
| Pursuing happiness but still preserving their honor
|
| They know how to take it upon themselves and whatever their mood
|
| Work to survive even if little by little they die there |
| They struggle to be honest with the sweat of their brow
|
| Pay off their debts so they don't get hurt
|
| It's not that they gave up, it's rather life they face
|
| Hold their heads up high so they don't get shame
|
| I dedicate this track to those who work like men to feed their families
|
| Pursuing happiness but still preserving their honor
|
| And I say that it is better to earn a little honestly than to gain a lot ill-gotten
|
| Ahahah! |
| The street made me Kery James the realist
|
| Money makes them arrogant, sometimes even violent
|
| They are convinced that they could not live without
|
| Makes them arrogant, sometimes even violent
|
| They are convinced that they could not live without
|
| Ah, it's a serious shock... The subject? |
| It shocks everyone
|
| That is to say, how shocking! |
| It's the truth, right?
|
| That's it... That's the truth. |
| A truth what, money drives people crazy,
|
| Nope?
|
| Especially with us, it's dangerous with us. |
| The money... the people they fart
|
| the shots because of the money
|
| No more friends...nothing
|
| It got serious...
|
| And then... Here I draw the A to your attention
|
| Note that in the neighborhood, you have to do the A of attention
|
| Too many people chasing the A of ascension
|
| And that no matter the means, that's the A of relentlessness
|
| Don't be surprised when the ambulance A rings
|
| Criminal A what? |
| Criminal vibe
|
| The atmosphere as for it, is the A of weighed down
|
| And the violence takes the A of altitude
|
| Strange is the A of their attitude... |
