Damn, take a ride to my My block, right heh [Incomprehensible] on my motherfuckin'
They got a nigga sheddin' tears, reminiscin' on my past 'Cause shit was hectic for me last It that I've been marked for death, my heartless breath The underlyin' cause of my arrest, my life is And no forever weary, my eyes stay teary For all the brothers that are in the cemetery Shit is scary, how black on crime legendary But at times unnecessary, I'm gettin' Teardrops and closed caskets, the three strikes law is And certain for us, ghetto bastards
What can we do when arrested, but open fire? Life in the pen ain't for me, 'cause I'd die But don't cry through despair I if the Lord still cares, for us niggaz on welfare And who if we survive The only time they a nigga is when he's clutchin' on a four five My ain't the same 'Cause all these babies goin' crazy And they sufferin' in the game and I swear it's a trap But I given up on the hood, it's all good when I go back showin me love, niggaz give me props Forever hope it don't stop on my block
Livin' life is but a Hard is all we see On my Every block is mean But on our block we still But on our block we still
Now shits constantly hot, on my block, it never to be gunshots Can't a mother's pain, when her son drops Black male slippin' in hail, when we prevail? jail but crack sales got me livin' well And the system's with this thug's life Stayin' strapped forever strapped in this life God help me, I'm starvin' can't get a job So I to violent robberies my life is hard Can't sleep 'cause all the dirt make my heart
Put in work and tears for my dead peers Mislead childhood where I went astray Till this day I still pray for a way Can't help but feel hopeless and From the start I felt the racism I'm dark Couldn't quit the bullshit me represent Hit the bar and played the star everywhere I In my heart, I alone out here on my own I close my eyes and home on my block
Livin' life is but a Hard is all we see On my Every block is kinda But on our block we play But on our we still play
And I help but wonder why, so many young kids had to die strays from A.K's in the drive by Swollen pride and homicide coincide Brothers cry for broken lives, mama inside our block is filled with danger Used to be a close knit community but now we're all cold Time changes us to stone them crack All up and down the block exterminatin' black But I can't the dealers
My mama's welfare check has the next man chrome wheels Shits real, I you feel, my tragedy A single with a problem child, daddy free Hangin' out pickin' up game, sippin' liquor Gamin' the hooches, hopin' I can get to sleep her It's a world, stayin' strapped Fantasies of a livin' phat, but held back dreams can make the night seem hopeless Wide eyed and losin' focus on my
Livin' is but a dream Hard is all we see On my Every block is mean But on our block we still But on our we still play
And block parties in tha projects lastin' way daylight A young nigga learned to night Used to fight with my homies but they stuck in the pen I send 'em ends, but tough on a friend In my mind I see the motherfuckers ballin' Alcohol will make a nigga slip and fall, miss his call I know the young niggaz this Growin' up in this world everythin' is scandalous I on tha fast times, past crimes
to cop a slice of pizza with my last dime Can't just what attracts me to this dirty game Gold some extra change, and the street fame And what's is everybody knows my name Swear they all me And of cash make a nigga change I hit the green to maintain, feelin' pain For all the niggaz that I lost to the game my block Thats
life is but a dream Hard is all we see Rest in peace to all the who passed away Every block is kinda From all the blocks that I'm But on our we still play
