|
They got me runnin' from 56 hope road |
|
Seems my world came crashin' down a moment ago |
|
I got this banner cross my back that says |
|
I'll be okay |
|
And save the dyin' for some other day |
|
When you're walkin' in my city you gotta duck and dive |
|
Cuz in the city bullets fly |
|
They put a gun in the hand of a juvenile |
|
When you look them in the eye things get wild |
|
Took a little detour down to washington boulevard |
|
Dreadlocks in the moonlight down in lee perry's yard |
|
I'm in the wrong place at the right time |
|
No longer in the line of fire now |
|
I'm stayin' alive |
|
Hit it hit it get ready to roll |
|
Your world's been fallin' down now it's startin to show |
|
You got your reasons hidden deep behind your eyes |
|
Your blowin' up mines crossin' over police lines |
|
They're gonna fight against us but they will not overcome |
|
No one's touchin' my life till my job gets done |
|
When you're walkin' in my city you gotta duck and dive |
|
Cuz in the city bullets fly |
|
They put a gun in the hand of a juvenile |
|
When you look them in the eye things get wild |
|
Now this bounty been placed upon my head |
|
What does it really mean if a man wants me dead? |
|
If I'm gunned down in the streets of trenchtown |
|
Will the people come around when they hear the sound? |
