[Intro]
I'm seeking justice
I feel like I'm the only one who wants it (Ooo, ooo, justice for music)
I think it's time for a little liberation
*Music plays*
[Interlude]
*Car pulls up*
Man 1: Aye, aye, there go the n***a right there, cuh
Pull up on the side of him real quick
Man 2: I got you, I got you loc, hol' up
sh**, you ready, n***a?
Man 1: n***a, I was born ready, you ain't gotta even tell me twice
Man 2: Bet, bet, aight then, n***a
Man 1: Watch this
[Verse 1]
Pandemonium is on the horizon
Click clack boom!
Hidden tension exhumed in this scenario
Man down, concerned citizens turn a blind eye
Lest they get blown away by the same barrel
The streets you was raised in will k** you the same
The same mentality that your homie would bring if he found a way to clock a grip by k**ing you off
Now you got a tombstone that says rip
Excuse me, I mean “Rest in Peace”, but you won't rest easy
Because you found out your childhood friend really grew up to be sleazy
But can you really be surprised?
I mean I even got relatives who would let me suffer and die
Whom can I trust?
I see you claimin' a flag
Oh, so you down to buss?
Tryna be somethin' you not
The basic type of lust
My only source of satisfaction is from tellin' a story over some music I made in this fashion
So let it play
So let it play
Yee-uh
[Bridge]
Either you livin' or you fade away (fade away)
You gon' see that life is cruel; it happens every day
Whether you stand or you fall (stand or you fall)
It'll make no difference at all:
The outcome
At least where I'm from
No love, but plenty of guns
Why do we live this way?
Why do we love being on the run?
[Hook x2]
We always wanna change on the outside
We fail to realize how we can change from the inside
We always seem to let down the only ones who matter the most now
[Outro]
Got an album of stories to tell
On this journey, I wish you well
(I wish you well *echoes*)
I run the game like Al Capone
And n***a the game is on
So says I, Tha Don
