Blood In the Streets

Gang wars Gang violence Constant carnage Endless bloodshed Why do they continue this This endless bloodletting The streets run red Like the Nile River But brought by steel and metal Not by the hand of God's follower Too many deaths,too many tears To many peoples lives torn asunder So man innocence has bled out Too many put six-feet under God please hear your son down here in the blood soaked dirt Why do so many of your children seek to cost each other death and hurt In these streets there's no mecry In these streets there's no peace Only one thing is here in these streets Blood Life Blood Innocent blood Bad Blood Blood in these streets
