Bonecrushers

Our neighbourhoods our prisons
Outside fear, death, street barons
Streetwar innocent souls deadens
Guns, daggers, stickers in dozens

Nothing to do but the others hate
In dark corners the weak predate
Beware of tempting bait
You may end up in a strait

Join a wicked gang
Have no feelings no pang
Just follow the yang
Drugs, girls, bang  bang  bang
