Major Lazer - Boulevard lyrics

[Hook] As I take a look down the boulevard Full of ghetto youth, life is very hard So many faces bearing the battle scars But love I bring to the people Coming straight from the heart If crisis is what we see All over the world is pure controversy One man can't put the price pan humanity It seems like the whole world's gone crazy [Verse 1] Everybody knows Johnny came from the roughest part of town Survived the School of Hard Knock's but still came up and made his chips The realest life, never watch it down Walk with a gun through the heart of town We hearin bam bam bam, a familiar sound To the youth down in the gully where Johnny boy done grow He never thought that he would make it out It's crabs in the barrel down in ST close [Verse 2] Poor Johnny Johnny got stuck for his money Things get funny when you rump with the daddy Later on the goons pull up in the black Caddy Next step on the news them find another dead body Tales for the inner city We break it right down to the nitty gritty Who's responsible for the crime and poverty? What a tragedy Wayoo [Verse 3] I wish that I could singlehandedly free the entire planet Earth from crime and poverty Me heart would a love to see the day When we burn racism, jealousy, and hate And if everyone should participate Come into slavery, we would be emancipated If we break our eggs then co-operate Not no can stop we from achieving the greatest [Hook]
