Damn, take a to my block My block, right heh on my motherfuckin' block
They got a nigga sheddin' tears, reminiscin' on my fears 'Cause shit was hectic for me last It that I've been marked for death, my heartless breath The underlyin' of my arrest, my life is stressed And no rest forever weary, my eyes teary For all the brothers are buried in the cemetery Shit is scary, how black on black crime But at times unnecessary, I'm gettin' Teardrops and closed caskets, the strikes law is drastic And death for us, ghetto bastards
What can we do when arrested, but open fire? Life in the pen ain't for me, I'd rather die But cry through your despair I wonder if the Lord still cares, for us niggaz on And who if we survive The only time they a nigga is when he's clutchin' on a four five My neighborhood ain't the 'Cause all these little babies goin' And they sufferin' in the game and I swear it's like a But I ain't given up on the hood, it's all when I go back Hoes showin me love, give me props hope 'cause it don't stop on my block
Livin' is but a dream times is all we see On my Every is kinda mean But on our block we still But on our block we play
Now shits constantly hot, on my block, it never to be gunshots explain a mother's pain, when her son drops Black male slippin' in hail, will we prevail? Fearin' but crack sales got me livin' well And the system's with this thug's life Stayin' forever strapped in this drug life God me, 'cause I'm starvin' can't get a job So I to violent robberies my life is hard Can't sleep 'cause all the dirt make my hurt
Put in work and shed tears for my peers Mislead from where I went astray Till this day I still for a better way Can't help but hopeless and heartbroke From the start I the racism 'cause I'm dark quit the bullshit make me represent Hit the bar and played the everywhere I went In my heart, I felt alone out on my own I close my eyes and home on my block
life is but a dream Hard is all we see On my Every block is kinda But on our block we still But on our we still play
And I help but wonder why, so many young kids had to die Caught from A.K's in the drive by Swollen pride and homicide don't Brothers cry for broken lives, mama inside our block is filled with danger Used to be a close knit community but now all cold strangers Time us to stone them crack pipes All up and down the exterminatin' black life But I blame the dealers
My mama's welfare has brought the next man chrome wheels Shits real, I you feel, my tragedy A single with a problem child, daddy free Hangin' out pickin' up game, sippin' cheap Gamin' the hooches, hopin' I can get to sleep her a man's world, stayin' strapped Fantasies of a nigga phat, but held back Pipe dreams can make the night hopeless Wide eyed and losin' on my block
life is but a dream Hard is all we see On my block is kinda mean But on our block we play But on our block we play
And parties in tha projects lastin' way past daylight A young nigga to break night Used to fight with my homies but they stuck in the pen I send 'em ends, but it's on a friend In my I see the same motherfuckers ballin' Alcohol will a lazy nigga slip and fall, miss his call I the young niggaz understand this Growin' up in world where everythin' is scandalous I on tha fast times, past crimes
Tryin' to cop a slice of pizza with my last Can't just what attracts me to this dirty game chains some extra change, and the street fame And what's strange is everybody my name they all know me And lots of cash make a change I hit the green just to maintain, pain For all the niggaz that I lost to the from my block Thats
life is but a dream Hard is all we see Rest in peace to all the muh'fuckers who away Every block is mean From all the that I'm from But on our block we still
One twelve street, Avenue, New York, Uptown what I'm sayin? But on our block we play 183rd and Walt, my block, that's But on our block we still 122nd and Morningside, my block, that's But on our we still play
Decatur Avenue, Baltimore, my block, that's But on our block we play In the jungle of Atlantic city, my block, that's right But on our we still play
Los Angeles, aha, my block too But on our block we play Oakland, can't forget Oaktown, that's my block for But on our we still play
And all the other around this motherfucker Houston, Florida, St. Louis, Tennessee, Miami, All niggaz stay kickin' up dust Representin' block
