|
These day it's a cold reality, living life on the street |
|
No time left to bite the hand that feeds |
|
The lure of money corrupts the weak, and soon they fall |
|
Little boy turns to man with a weapon when |
|
he's poisoned with crack |
|
This time it was his turn to dies |
|
Fate call his number in a bloody goodbye |
|
Play war games, crack cocaine, all for material gain |
|
Stray gunfire an innocent dies |
|
The shadow of hope bleeds as power begets greed |
|
One more murder and one more death |
|
Make no difference in the street |
|
Come tomorrow you could be dead |
|
That's the grim reality |
|
And the media they feed off the sickness |
|
They stoke the fire as they eat |
|
All the while being glamorized by rap |
|
The lure of power creates a death trap of social decay |
|
Play war games, crack cocaine, all for material gain |
|
In the end, your life is spend |
|
The shadow of hope bleeds as power begets greed |
|
One more murder and one more death |
|
Make no difference in the street |
|
Come tomorrow you could be dead |
|
That's the grim reality |
|
One more murder |
|
Makes no difference in the street |
|
One more murder |
|
That's the grim reality |
|
No future, no future, no future on the street |
