God damn! Drug dealers dealin’ to the kiddies,
Livin’ in the city ain’t no pity on the itty-bitty.
We try to cry, but still they all die,
I try to speak to the youth, and the truth is: they all high.

You know it’s funny, when it rains it pours,
They got money for wars, but can’t feed the poor.

Fuck you, losers. While you fake jacks, I makes maneuvers.

You just met me, you won’t let me…
Well if I couldn’t have it, silly rabbit, why you sweating me?

It’s war on the streets and a war in the Middle East
Instead of war on poverty, they got a war on drugs
So the police can bother me…

Run from the police, picture that,
Nigga I’m too fat…
I fuck around and catch a asthma attack.

Be grateful for blessings,
Don’t ever change, keep your essence.
The power is in the people and politics we address.
