[00:00.00]	作曲 : Collins Thompson Friedrich
[00:00.361]	作词 : Collins Thompson Friedrich
[00:01.83][Hook - Dice Raw]
[00:08.33]	Out on the streets, where I grew up
[00:11.89]	First thing they teach us is not to give a fuck
[00:15.40]	That type of thinking can't get you nowhere
[00:18.98]	Someone has to care
[00:21.56][Verse 1 - Black Thought]
[00:22.84]	How I got over, where the people come apart
[00:26.82]	Don't nobody care about you, only thing you got is God
[00:30.89]	Out here in these streets, if you get down on your luck
[00:35.09]	You can stand out, with a hand out but nobody give a fuck
[00:38.44]	Out here in these streets, every man is for himself
[00:42.95]	They ain't helping no one else, it's a hazard to your health
[00:46.18]	Living life in these cold streets
[00:49.09]	Hey, who's worrying about you, babe?
[00:51.91]	When you wilding out, running around in these streets?
[00:54.80][Hook - Dice Raw]
[00:55.52]	Out on the streets, where I grew up
[00:59.07]	First thing they teach us is not to give a fuck
[01:02.71]	That type of thinking can't get you nowhere
[01:06.65]	Someone has to care
[01:08.55][Verse 2 - Black Thought]
[01:10.26]	When you on the corners, there's too much drama
[01:11.80]	Living with the police right behind ya
[01:13.88]	It's always more than a slight reminder
[01:15.78]	We living in a war zone like Rwanda
[01:17.73]	Before I go back to the Heavenly Father
[01:19.57]	Pray for me if it ain't too much bother
[01:21.58]	Whatever don't break me will make me stronger
[01:23.58]	I feel like I can't take too much longer
[01:25.48]	It's too much lying, and too much fighting
[01:27.56]	I'm all cried out cause I grew up crying
[01:29.52]	They all got a sales pitch I ain't buying
[01:31.35]	They trying to convince me that I ain't trying
[01:33.85]	We uninspired, we unadmired
[01:35.69]	And tired and sick of being sick and tired
[01:37.65]	Of living in the hood where the shots are fired
[01:39.55]	We dying to live, so to live, we dying
[01:41.51]	You just like I am
[01:42.27][Hook - Dice Raw]
[01:42.57]	Out on the streets, where I grew up
[01:46.17]	First thing they teach us is not to give a fuck
[01:49.78]	That type of thinking can't get you nowhere
[01:53.89]	Someone has to care
[01:55.88][Verse 3 - Black Thought]
[01:56.73]	Somebody's gotta care, and I swear it isn't fair
[02:01.73]	In suspended animation, we ain't trying to go nowhere
[02:05.04]	Out here in these streets, we're so young and all alone
[02:09.29]	We ain't even old enough to realize we're on our own
[02:12.83]	Living life in these hard streets
[02:15.28]	Where it's like they lost they mind
[02:17.43]	Is there anyway to find?
[02:19.01]	Are we running out of time out here?
[02:21.11]	Listen, hey, who's worrying about you, babe?
[02:26.27]	When you wilding out, running around in these streets?
[02:28.72][Hook - Dice Raw]
[02:30.10]	Out on the streets, where I grew up
[02:33.58]	First thing they teach us is not to give a fuck
[02:37.39]	That type of thinking can't get you nowhere
[02:40.77]	Someone has to care
