[00:00.00] 作词 : George Carroll/Michael Harris/Richard Muhammad
[00:20.30]I remember Jay Rich we grew up together
[00:22.51]Spitting game at little dames trying to **** whatever
[00:25.13]Ten years old, already with a lust for cheddar
[00:27.58]He was smart though for real the young buck was clever
[00:30.17]A few years went by, we still stuck together
[00:32.42]Plotting armed robberies to get bucks for leathers
[00:34.86]Played with guns, it was fun to clutch Berettas
[00:37.67]But up in school my dude still had his stuff together
[00:40.11]On the court he would score I would scream on the refs
[00:42.92]He used to study on the low, I would cheat on the test
[00:45.36]When he started selling crack said it was easy to chef
[00:47.74]Then I heard he caught a body, stabbed a fiend in the steps
[00:50.42]I needed a breath, his dream was to grow up to be rich
[00:53.05]Be an astronaut with a house and the V6
[00:55.42]But he switched, the streets turned to man to a goon
[00:57.92]I always thought he’d be the first black man on the moon, damn
[01:00.92]I just don’t know why my eyes won’t cry
[01:07.08]Guess that they’re broken
[01:10.50]These lies mask and disguise
[01:14.31]My past I can’t hide, I guess that I’m broken
[01:19.78]Yeah the sidewalks are lined with trapdoors
[01:22.23]The city maze is impossible to escape
[01:24.95]All the shitty days that remind us of environments so mindless
[01:28.39]And violence is followed by foot chases and sirens
[01:30.86]Leap frog with police dogs, dirty piece tossed
[01:33.72]Palms greased cause these pigs gotta eat more
[01:36.10]Phil had the ill took connect down in?
[01:38.35]Every other week it’s up and down like a seesaw
[01:41.10]Cold blooded beast, dude even fed his niece raw
[01:43.47]Used to be a good girl turned to a cheap whore
[01:46.22]Nowadays everybody’s caught up in that street law
[01:48.85]They found that bitch’s body blue down by the seashore
[01:51.42]I ain’t write shit to glorify it or exaggerate
[01:53.85]I ain’t write these lyrics to be shocking or to agitate
[01:56.48]Every other week it seems I see another tragic wake
[01:58.72]Inside this broken world full of kids who never had a break
[02:01.35]I just don’t know why my eyes won’t cry
[02:07.60]Guess that they’re broken
[02:10.91]These lies mask and disguise
[02:14.86]My past I can’t hide, I guess that I’m broken
[02:21.51]This life is real, got friends doing life in jail
[02:23.82]And we all trying to eat so we fight for meals
[02:26.37]Never been the type to squeal, I stand on my own two
[02:28.98]Funny how when you’re broke your people disown you
[02:31.65]The actuality of this life is stabbing me with a knife
[02:34.33]You see the flames when the heaters ignite
[02:36.13]Fiends with a pipe, hustlers moving greed in the night
[02:38.82]The demon’s in sight, the devil still scheming is trife
[02:41.51]And all I see is this beast that keeps eating its young
[02:44.07]Deceit and lies from the serpent that’s the media’s tongue
[02:46.81]On the surface it would seem easy for me to become
[02:48.94]Drunk on hard liquor, chewing pills, I need to be numb
[02:51.44]Not to sound stupid really, I don’t mean to be dumb
[02:54.19]But all it takes where I’m from is a scheme and a gun
[02:56.55]And a whip and a bitch and some coke and a drink
[02:58.99]And some bitch and a crew, **** I’m broke and I think
[03:01.74]I just don’t know why my eyes won’t cry
[03:07.94]Guess that they’re broken
[03:11.30]These lies mask and disguise
[03:15.28]My past I can’t hide, I guess that I’m broken
