| If you drive for a few miles in your car
|
| You’ll see things that could turn a smile into a scar
|
| Some of today’s kids are mad to the max
|
| They would probably fit in Where the Wild Things Are
|
| They used to blame two things in the old days
|
| Gangster rap music and video games
|
| The problem was too big for richer folks to stay
|
| Then the middle class moved in and it didn’t go away
|
| Right now, they’re repping it hard on that corner
|
| High-powered weapons and cars like Transporter
|
| People talk about them as if they’ve got a nerve to live
|
| The same people that voted for the frigging Conservatives
|
| Why’d you think they haven’t got an F word to give?
|
| Most of them don’t know the meaning of the word 'forgive'
|
| The ones that learnt are the ones that know Rick Ross bars
|
| As far as they’re concerned, that’s something that only God does
|
| The cool youth came and everybody thought the mood changed
|
| Drug rings would’ve been smashed if it wasn’t for the food chain
|
| All they wanna do is reach the top of it
|
| Eat until the bottom isn’t involved, meaning don’t stop for shit
|
| That’s what the logic is
|
| But logic is a dodgy biz
|
| Life’s a bitch and often, they’re misogynists
|
| It’s hard to figure it out cause women are the ones that raised 'em
|
| And father figures are now just figments of imagination
|
| They might as well be invisible
|
| Cause nobody’s discovered how to stare through a prison wall
|
| It’s pitiful, I pity fools
|
| That think the culture’s dying cause the situation’s critical
|
| It’s a tragic problem
|
| The illness won’t just vanish like the myth of Magic Johnson
|
| They’re fucking for the funds cause the roots don’t need to be legal
|
| Stunting like money’s the root of Evil Knievel
|
| But the government’s just a group of greedier people
|
| I want another word for the dudes we see as deceitful
|
| There’s gotta be a name for those that truly fuck up shit
|
| Cause politician isn’t really doing it justice
|
| The game belongs to them and it’s impossible to stop it
|
| They save a lot of pennies with the coppers in their pockets
|
| The law’s on their side so they’re chilling in mansions
|
| Laughing while you’re labelling the children 'gangsters' |
