Illustrait - Always Have a Choice lyrics

(intro Ca$his) "IN THIS LIFE OF CRIME MY MINDS DESIGNED... TO WIN WE GOTTA STOP THE VIOLENCE COS WHATS THE REASON... WE ALL LOSING OUT HERE HOLD YOUR HEAD, GET YOUR BREAD THO... (UHH) REMEMBER WHAT IT IS... SUCCESS IS DEFINED BY WHAT YOU WANT... BUT DON'T LOSE YOUR LIFE TO GAIN SOMETHING YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE USE YOUR BRAIN USE YOUR BRAIN" Verse 1. illustrait... "Mother crying tears Her child sleeps/deceased in a coffin/ Tears shed she lost her offspring/ {​think bout it}​...adlib Tell me there ain't a problem/ you dont get to see a child blossum Now i have a dream like Martin Luther King Seek the peace/ what our future brings/ Guardian angels be/ spreading there wings/ I feel the need/ the sooner we think/ Bout consequences and actions/ Sooner we have compa**ion/ Truthfully Peace is what our future needs/ No more blood shed on streets/ Your minds the weapon thats what im tryna teach/ Make the right choices but can't you see/ Shots off... (shots fired sound) Families mourn black ties and funerals/ Another loss... All this gang lifestyle is more than a rumour mill/ Taking the precious gift of life that was once beautiful" Verse 2. Ca$his "12 shots to the head young man dead/ Slang two to the brain, they k** him for his gold chain/ (2 SHOTS) They k**ed him cos he learned to bang/ That young boy was my cuz tho/ That young boy was my cuz tho/ My auntie crying blood in the rain/ My auntie crying can feel her pain/ Its worse than those hunger pains/ This is scenes from my younger days/ Curses, verses, that leads to nothing but hearses/ Got my family up in churches/ For the first time like my first rhyme/ Designed my life of crime/ I look up in the sky and yell why/ Why we gotta stop it" Verse 3. illustrait "violence can we see a future without violence/ Seen so much many suffer in silence/ Pulling on heartstrings like violins/ Families mourning losses crying Praying dear lord wising it would stop/ Stop the violence/ God, choices we make it ain't all hip hop Hearing the sirens/ Another lost sheep from a flock/ No survival/ Begging forgiveness from god/ Theres no honour in d**h at all/ Saying you now live with regrets/ When a family lives with a d**h/ Hope it eats your concience/ Hope you expose the accomplice/ Still no statements correspondence/ Nothing related if honest On the lives lost i make this solum promise Guns down no weapon shall prosper Guns down whats the possesion taught us Stray bullet (gun popping off sound) d**h of a toddler" Verse 4. Illustrait You got blood on your hands now face it Hope your pleading 2 god Rubbing the rosary beads raw Putting faith on a cross For gods sake when does it stop When were in a black suit n tie When were the ones that sadly died When our families the ones to cry When our families the ones to cry Only then will we hear a final reply A shot fired (gun shot) single bullet whizzing by Caught in the corner of my eye One shot (fired gun) one bullet Another loss how stupid Mistaken identity ruthless To a jesus piece turnt judas Truth is guns should be banished Saying that poverty did the damage Sorry won't reprimand what happend Im tryna an*lyze the weapon handled Tryna verbalise the scandal Going through channels Turning tvs off seen enough I'm writing my words with black ink So it cuts real deep n makes you think... (outro) Illustrait "why is it we always gotta mourn a loss Why is it karma comes with. a cost If u don't wear armor u take the shots Happens all the time can the guns drop"
