[Intro: Dogmatic & TV News cast]

"In breaking news, seven people dead, thirty five wounded after another suicide bomber strikes at a bus stop in Northern Jerusalem"

"Anthrax was found [?]"

"Breaking news, The Twin Towers of Manhattan have just collapsed after being struck buy two unidentified planes"

Ghetto children

It's a different world

It's more scandalous everyday

But they dont really care about us


[Verse 1: Dogmatic]

No more picket fences, no more green grass

No more children playing outside, no more mom and dad

Things are different, no more birthday gifts and good deeds that

People do for nothing, It's all about something

Is it drugs? Is it sex, is it money? (I don't know)

Is real life television supposed to be funny?

Yo' it's funny what we find to entertain ourselves

Yo' it's funny how we got here and changed ourselves

Are we going to Hell or are we already here? (Damn)

Locked down in the cell with ten tattooed tears niggas

Swallow your fears, we in the present building a future

Can't go back to yesterday, now I gots to shoot ya

They say its politics but it's streets shit to me

"Its all about politics" You can't tell that shit to a G

Nigga please, my dogs ain't eating, we in the trenches

With dope fiends, killers, haters and scandalous bitches


[Verse 2: Proof]

My mind has evolved with time, a problem sign

Watch the preacher preach and eating God with swine

I was fine until daddy bust

It was all family love up in daddy's nuts

But momma had to push, dropped me 10/02

Now I bear witness, watch the evil men do

Ain't no window caught, oppurtunity

Its like there's only one plan, it gots to ruin me

Minority crisis to fight this stock exchange

While you flood out blocks with 'cane for pocket change

The illest sight of my life, a crackhead with morning sickness

Tell me why that baby gotta be born addicted

In this cold world where sin thrives in daylight

How the fuck we got gay rights and them have slave rights?

Today might be my last, GLAD might see my ass

The first straight bastard, think I hate fags

I dont hate fags, I just hate people

That break equal ties, make secret lies

I can't sleep through one night, my life was dead wrong

Surrounded by internet perverts and kid porn

My shit's warm and now I'm pissing hot

Kids get popped by all these fucking twisted cops

This shit gon' stop in the days of truth

Jumping of the highest horse, trying to save the youth


[Chorus: China]

Murdering human beings, no regards for anything

Dope fiends, coke kings, neighbourhood molting

Open me, close me, hold me, scold me

Daddy didn't mold me, Momma never told me

Murdering human beings, no regards for anything

Dope fiends, coke kings, neighbourhood molting

Open me, close me, hold me, scold me

Daddy didn't mold me, Momma never told me


[Verse 3: King Gordy]

Kerosene heaters heat the house up

Borrow water from my neighbours just so I can wash up

Using candles to see my way through the crib

It's eight of us, that's the way that we live, can't tell you when I last ate a meal

Stomach growling, nigga hungry than a motherfucker

Momma stop smoking that and please put some groceries in this motherfucker

Thats why I chill at crackhouses and get ganged

They pushing weight, I make a hundred fucking dollars a day

There go blunts and Coney Islands, can't take it living in vacants

Sleeping with a scarf [?] a first down and three blankets

Hoping police raid us, take us away

I wait for the day, to have a warm place for us to stay

And I've been shot at, beat the fuck down and swung on

I even cocked back, heat for some clowns and bust chrome

I'm from the ghetto, unemployed, dropped out at age eleven

With a wife and three kids, ah shit I'm James Evans


[Chorus: China]

Murdering human beings, no regards for anything

Dope fiends, coke kings, neighbourhood molting

Open me, close me, hold me, scold me

Daddy didn't mold me, Momma never told me

Murdering human beings, no regards for anything

Dope fiends, coke kings, neighbourhood molting

Open me, close me, hold me, scold me

Daddy didn't mold me, Momma never told
