Brother El - It's Amazing lyrics

Wake up, wake up Wipe the sleep from yo' eyes I feel stinky .. not because I ain't washed up Because I'm crowded by immense clouds of bull{sh**} Hmm [Chorus] A lot of brothers be screamin out They draw from a solid foundation Hollerin out different gang nations I'm patient, I stand firm My heart's racin, bullets grazin, it's amazing [Verse One] A road, scrolls through the cracks of concrete Broken gla**es under my feet Respect for nature seems to be obsolete I feel cheap, peep - peep My people take but don't give Some get past the street, some forget about the crib And where they used to live They say you'd do it too, if you only knew what I knew Cause everytime I come around I hear the sound of the full clip Unload, unload, reload, huh Explode the stray bullet caught the shorty in the back That's wack - he never got to finish his second lap On the schoolyard track, and Never got a chance to compete in the spelling bee He worked so hard to see His parents knew about gang violence But never thought it could be their kids silenced.. silenced.. [Chorus] It's amazing.. [Verse Two] Down the block, shorty talk a lot A swoll head, blowin up the spot I got this I got that, cops heard about the drug spot As his lips poppped, and even as he dropped dime Lyin, on the nation operation Just to save his own {a**} From that green gra** long break downstate, heh I'm straight - at least that's what he thought Caught by those loose words, that travelled back to the hood And O.G.'s understood, it was time for pay black On his head back was a Bounty, for the quicker-pick'm-upper For him and his brother (yeah) It's a sad song, but crime goes on In the streets of Chi', brothers die in the dope game Ain't {sh**} changed but the name The game remains to be the same.. The game remains to be the same.. it's true [Chorus]
