[Verse 1] |
|
Guns and Roses, another young boy lost, another fallen soldier |
|
Younger brother tears' falling on his mother's shoulders |
|
She got some tears of her own when she had loved him stronger |
|
13, but he grown, you see the gun he holding, that was made for a man, |
|
The rush he get when he load it is one you won't understand unless you hold it and blow it, Granny moved from New Orleans searching for better life, |
|
A troubled cardiac is all she got, eating that McDonalds by the laundry mat, |
|
Daughter was 17, she just want to know where the party at, |
|
Met somebody that night, fucked him, he never called her back |
|
Now her oldest bastard son sitting in that casket, |
|
Young victim of the guns and roses, |
|
Living young and hopeless |
|
[Verse 2] |
|
Guns and Roses, another young girl lost, you see her heart was broken, |
|
She used to love so strong til' she got done wrong, ain't wanna feel no guilt, |
|
She blamed it all on home, but still it felt so real, and shit she lie so well, |
|
Her parents never could tell where she was really at, |
|
Now is it really love or just another lie to fuck inside his mama's truck raw like the emotions of her crying that night, her pillow soaked, |
|
She miss the hope she had as a kid , |
|
But he doing all the things that her dad never did, |
|
He'll be the dad of a kid if she have it, but still he'd rather not, |
|
Steal her mother's car, hit the bar just to grab a shot from the guns and roses, |
|
Living young and hopeless |
|
[Verse 3] |
|
Guns and Roses, I had it all in my home but mother never noticed |
|
The neighborhood where I roamed was known for countless encounters |
|
Of people pressin' they line, I try to stay in my boundary |
|
When bounties placed on your head for shit you never had did |
|
You just conform to survive, not tryin' to sit in no pit |
|
I like me better alive, three fifty-seven's for six eleven, fit in the nine |
|
I take 'em both when I dipped cuz I ain't dyin' today |
|
It's just a game that we play, what you bang ? where you stay ? |
|
Before you answer just spray, you'll never see it coming |
|
Hit a man woman, child, or dog because it's mama for yours |
|
It's two weapons in wars and that's |
|
The guns and roses, young victim of the guns and roses |
