Down here in the ghetto, we know the horror of the guns
We wear the scars of violence
Son, turn in your gun
Think my shit is too real for 'em
A young girl is killed by a stray bullet in Chicago
Same thing in Jamaica, Queens, right in front of McDonald's
The ghetto's on fire, the pyro's nothing but sorrow
It's burning inside the souls of the future kids of tomorrow
We used to use hip-hop to teach us the way
For some reason these fucking artists don't reach us today
My little cousin got popped, he was slipping, he wasn't toting
Plus was sipping too much of that Vodka Puffy promoting
My mother died, niggas was sending me 'gnac
But it was ironic that shit was called Hennessy Black
Sipping that make a nigga wanna pick up a MAC
And stick up a spot, when I should wanna rip up a track
Said fuck that, hit Yafi, you on the track
Said "Ya, we gotta bring our community back
Bring the concept of having black unity back
And come with the shit that get rid of that buffoonery rap
That soon to be looked at as lunacy cartoonery crap"
The sooner we maneuver that, the sooner we can react
In fact, it's Crip and G's, now who running with me?
And I'ma rep it 'til the pack of wolves come and get me, yeah
A young girl joins a gang out in Brownsville, Brooklyn
That's down where they got them coke pounds still cooking
The prostitutes lurking, they still out here hooking
The bookings still filling, niggas just black and brown looking
This little girl, one night they gave her a burner, right?
Told her she wanna be down, she gotta earn her stripes
An adolescent that lacked a lesson to learn in life
She shoots a kid in the back, pow, turn his lights out
That was the seventh shooting in less than a week
The reason I feel it's what I should address to this beat
Check it and see, it's funerals consecutively
It's the God, by the power invested in me
I'm telling niggas to chill and go easy on the gunplay
Besides, you gon' have to learn how to fight someday
Develop a warrior spirit
Let your fists talk more than your lyrics
And you'll get no interference
Check, it's real wack that blacks only kill blacks
I know that sound off the wall, but it's real fact
I shot about eight people and they all black
"I'm a dumb motherfucker" is what I call that
