| Album | 100% Hits: The Best of 2005 |
| [00:21.85] | These kids trapped in a struggle and |
| [00:24.02] | Nowhere to head at night |
| [00:25.92] | A head full of trouble is all they're getting |
| [00:29.02] | And nobody knows the suffering they go through |
| [00:32.77] | And you wouldn't believe 'em if they told you |
| [00:36.62] | |
| [00:37.29] | trapped in a struggle and |
| [00:38.55] | Nowhere to head at night |
| [00:40.37] | A head full of trouble is all they're getting |
| [00:43.78] | And nobody knows the suffering they go through |
| [00:47.09] | And you wouldn't believe 'em if they told you |
| [00:50.23] | |
| [00:50.77] | So many songs, so many times |
| [00:52.55] | The world had to hear so many rhymes |
| [00:54.54] | About how life is for strugglers |
| [00:56.15] | Minority groups, kids with single mothers |
| [00:58.21] | Young homies turn hustlers, stealing for money |
| [01:00.02] | It's kinda funny how the crime rate is so high |
| [01:02.20] | In suburbs where family ties are low, |
| [01:04.03] | 'n suicides on the rise |
| [01:05.46] | |
| [01:05.85] | Oh why, so many die coz in their eyes |
| [01:09.29] | The mistake they made, |
| [01:10.53] | cant be erased the only way out is to take their life |
| [01:12.70] | And if they dont do it sudden then they'll do it slowly |
| [01:16.18] | Polluting themselves with drugs, |
| [01:18.45] | because they on this world lonely |
| [01:20.34] | So we as a nation just class 'em as a waste of space |
| [01:23.64] | And if they don't help the economy then strip 'em naked |
| [01:26.37] | Put 'em on the streets 'n make sure the police hate 'em |
| [01:28.87] | And feed the public phony information on the evening news |
| [01:35.39] | Kids may bomb police stations, to get at the boys in blue |
| [01:37.24] | |
| [01:38.45] | This song goes out to the whole justice system |
| [01:41.20] | Instead of listening to the kids with the problems |
| [01:43.71] | They just tick them off more |
| [01:45.02] | Until these kids in prison or dead before they twenty four |
| [01:47.81] | |
| [01:49.35] | These kids trapped in a struggle and |
| [01:51.28] | Nowhere to head at night |
| [01:53.34] | A head full of trouble is all they're getting |
| [01:56.41] | And nobody knows the suffering they go through |
| [01:59.98] | And you wouldn't believe 'em if they told you |
| [02:03.09] | |
| [02:03.95] | You probably heard the news about the 14 year old kid |
| [02:05.82] | Who went to Woodridge to get a stick but got his neck slit |
| [02:07.78] | What you'll expect in, the situation that he was facing |
| [02:09.71] | With all of these expectations he just wanted to get wasted |
| [02:11.74] | But the mistake he made was fatal |
| [02:12.42] | What about my mate who put a rope around his neck |
| [02:13.40] | But he choked to death instead coz the fall never broke his neck |
| [02:16.17] | See both of them, |
| [02:17.26] | were trapped in a struggle none of us could comprehend |
| [02:18.80] | The younger was in need of weed, |
| [02:19.86] | the other had problems with his head |
| [02:21.65] | Now they're both dead, and the same thing happens time 'n time again |
| [02:24.03] | Kids dying all the time 'n leave us asking “why my friend“ |
| [02:26.07] | And then there is those who run away from home |
| [02:27.35] | Live on the streets 'n chrome |
| [02:28.03] | Can't deal with tha pain of the world so they get stoned |
| [02:29.51] | Sit in a zone, become known as the local drones |
| [02:31.05] | With low vocal tones, they communicate with hopeless groans |
| [02:32.82] | And nobody knows they came from broken homes |
| [02:34.99] | Plus to us they're just emotionless clones |
| [02:36.40] | And the pain plagues |
| [02:37.34] | their brains they can't maintain healthy lives |
| [02:38.80] | Change is all but easy, |
| [02:39.60] | a life of crime is all but nice |
| [02:40.44] | Plus life isnt worth living unless ya given the chance to fight |
| [02:42.75] | Drugs might not be the answer, but who knows wrong from right |
| [02:45.37] | When ya parents drinks 2 whole bottles |
| [02:46.62] | Of wine, 'n puts the hose in the coke bottle, |
| [02:47.94] | A lot of the time, kids dont know any different |
| [02:49.06] | It's like they losing their minds, |
| [02:50.70] | cant get a hold of their visions |
| [02:51.69] | Think they're doing just fine, but they still in the struggle |
| [02:53.40] | Yeah the kids of this time, in a whole lotta trouble |
| [02:55.40] | If you in trouble, jump over that puddle |
| [02:57.19] | Some where out there someone really loves you |
| [02:58.97] | Loves you like you never been loved, yeah |
| [03:00.76] | Loves you like you've never been loved |
