If I could sit here and explain how sudden life could change
I'd rather put one in my brain
Than to continue with this pain
And nothing stays the same
Hey, I'm still up in this game
Am I supposed to feel strange
Locked up in these chains
Slicing through my veins
Cause under all the pain
My soul is screaming louder than the thunder when it rains
Change
I'm only what you make of me
Keep in mind the things I do
I do 'em for the sake of me
It's making me a burden
Stop this world from turning
Smoking all this weed and try to keep my heart from burning
I'm learning from experience
Life will soon get better
But nothing's guaranteed dog and nothing lasts forever
Pull myself together
But I'm running out of patience
I'm about a half a second close from blowing out my brain
It's driving me insane
I wish that I could freeze the world
And run away with my two little girls
Instead of on these streets
In these streets all I see is pain and agony
I feel this emptiness that lives inside of me
Sometimes I really don't know why
Why I had to see my homies die
In these streets all I see is haters, enemies
I guess that's just the way a cursed life has to be
Cause life up on the calle gets beat
So you cherish every heartbeat
Life on the streets
Breaking 40's at the cemetery where my homies buried
At times I'm kinda scared of death
But even life is scary
It's estimated that nine out of ten
Gangbangers end up dead, paralyzed, or in the pen
They say that most of us live not even half a life
And the way I look at shit we're proving these gabachos right
At night I see the chopper spotlight upon the scene
Cause another gunfight took someone's life at seventeen
Now how many funerals have I been to throughout the years
The hardest motherfuckers that I know were shedding tears
Front page another male Hispanic found dead
Witnesses say a Hispanic shot him point blank in the head
Now one is charged for murder
One is dead under a cross
Any way you look at it that's two lives forever lost
May everybody now and anybody rest in peace
Regardless how much time we can't forget those that's deceased
Life on the streets
In these streets all I see is pain and agony
I feel this emptiness that lives inside of me
Sometimes I really don't know why
Why I had to see my homies die
In these streets all I see is haters, enemies
I guess that's just the way a cursed life has to be
Cause life up on the calle gets beat
So you cherish every heartbeat
Life on the streets
Mi primo Chupa rest in peace
If only you didn't go before me
Now we can't even share 40's, blunts, hoes, or war stories
Now it's over and I got this fucking boulder on my shoulder
And I swear that it gets big and heavier as I get older
It gets colder
More homies falling victim to the streets
And there's nothing anyone can do but pray they rest in peace
If there is a god que me puede escuchar I ask him this
Why you let this happen if this world is in your fist
You say have faith and courage
Be humble as you strive
Well how the fuck can I be humble in this world and still survive
I'm lucky I'm alive
So many died
I'm like alone
In the streets where there's war
Like Vietnam is where I roam
Funerals in cemeteries
Family visits in the pen
Gunshots for every tear throughout the years that's what it's been
I was born into this sin
A Mexican without a choice
But in this white society
I'm like a man without a voice
I'm from the streets
In these streets all I see is pain and agony
I feel this emptiness that lives inside of me
Sometimes I really don't know why
Why I had to see my homies die
In these streets all I see is haters, enemies
I guess that's just the way a cursed life has to be
Cause life up on the calle gets beat
So you cherish every heartbeat
Life on the streets
In these streets all I see is pain and agony
I feel this emptiness that lives inside of me
Sometimes I really don't know why
Why I had to see my homies die
In these streets all I see is haters, enemies
I guess that's just the way a cursed life has to be
Cause life up on the calle gets beat
So you cherish every heartbeat
Life on the streets
Sometimes I really don't know why
Why I had to see my homies die
Why
