Street Life

Click click boom and your brothers gone

Sittin at his funeral knowin he aint’ do nuthin wrong

Was just at the wrong place at the wrong time aint know where to start

Messed around, got 3 bullets to his heart

Grandma on a breathing machine

Take all her breath just to tell you she loves you, make you wanna scream

Scream and pray to God why you?

How to get out of it, what you gotta do?

Sleeping with ak’s and pistols under your bed

Cause you never know whats going through these sick peoples heads

Auntie Cindy just found out she got a STD

Daddy out to kill that hustler when could he be?

All this weight on your shoulders cant even sleep

Im far from hood but understand he streets, call on me
