Kano - Dead Presidents Freestle lyrics

The streets like living in hell, f** knows what living in jails like I'm living alright so I can help, right? I felt like I was set up just to fail, right? But I'm the truth, the media they love to tell lies I still write about all the sh** I seen too Unfortunate, kids lost parents and forced to quit school just to hold the fam down Be the man now, money's too slow f** waiting for handouts That's the long and short of it But people only see the crime, don't see the cause of it Misunderstood so we lift up our hoods to rebel, like f** the government The teens, all they really need is some encouragement Don't give, then they'll take it An attitude defilement created But I'll agree that really ain't the way kid But if I can see, why can't they say? I ain't saying I should lead but why can't they? I'm out for the Queens head to represent me But for the mean time, these lines will represent the streets I'm out for Jesus to represent me Cause I see what the police did to Pac and B.I.G Don't shoot the messenger I just deliver the harsh lines Do you really think paper can erase all the hard times? As if racism is just a thing of the past time I still get ha**led when the business cla** line
