I know it's crazy

I know it's crazy, but you can't quite turn away

It's foul in the street, criminal in the street

Little child running wild, struck down in the street

I'm strapped for the brawl, story of the hood

It was written, you can read it in the graph on the walls

Long as cash is involved, they blast for the cause

And you better break bread or you asking for war

Trying to come out the hood, pray for him

Cuz he would put the gun down if he somehow could

Baby being born, teenage mother

Fly baby boy found laying in the dumpster?

She couldn't bare the load, she begged for forgiveness

Because it's just tears of soul

And the world so cold, world so bold

Gotta make it so my boy and baby girl grow old

Hold my head cuz I could be the nigga in the news

Stressed cuz I need these figures for this food

I want a better life for my children, I'm building

I'm voting for Barack, I just hope they don't kill him

I'm bugging off the government, they bugging off the fact

That the next pres, gonna be a woman or a black

I"m sure what's in store, ain't cater to the poor

And I bet many more won't make it through the storm

But I take it will be strong, we face harder hard ships

Labeled me, low class, treat it like I'm garbage

Still I stand tall, rising like a phoenix from the ash

My life trynna see it if I can

Cuz to me it's all I have, no I wouldn't trade it

I just meet you on the other side, homey, if I make it

That's why I'm bigger on the grind

I'm so close to the edge, cuz I live on the line, and

Mankind's heading for the worse

We gonna end the world if God don't get to us first

My man just lost his job

And he was down three, so, now he forced to rob

He was good til he caught the charge

Trying to live that American dream, a three car garage

Man, it's hard and it's ways to go

You can't run from it, cuz there's no place to go

And there's no face you know

And there's no cake to blow, and there's no space to grow
