Danger

Maybe it was meant to be

But there isn't no guarantees

That life could be stress free from

Maybe we could make a change

Or things will remain the same

Wouldn't that be a shame? (Danger!)

Ayo, I never knew the streets were so dangerous

Minors thinking that they majors at young ages

Neglect their character to make paper

Never cross their mind to make wages

Is it that they going through these phases, it's so dangerous

Upper class looking at the lower class funny style

Turning noses up 'cause it's money now

Rich kids never knew the meaning of hard work

It's defamation brought upon yourself when it's God's work

Is that the street life? Please

Robberies, drug dealers selling keys

Pirate copy DVDs sold by the Chinese

Gun crime up, cokeheads in squat houses who snort lines up

School gangs blazing, Black kids against the Asians

Since the days of Thatcher and Ron Reagan

Very little inspiration, grown folks misplace patience

The universe mentality is dangerous

Maybe it was meant to be

But there isn't no guarantees

That life could be stress free from

Maybe we could make a change

Or things will remain the same

Wouldn't that be a shame? (Danger!)

Ayo, I never knew my block was so dangerous

Alcoholics walk around in twos with mental health patients

Young bloods buying blunt wraps, assorted flavors, insulting neighbors

The police ain't really doing nothing to contain them

Combination of the staircase and urination

Weed smoke fragrance floating to the playgrounds

Bass sounds booming out from double glazing

And these dudes walking around with pants down think it's amazing

The government needs to provide some ventilation

This ain't healthy like a quarter-pound of bacon

But rich folks spend while poor folks pretend

While rich folks lend, the poor are borrowing

Banks take blood money 'cause it's all one money

Invest in wars transforms to gun money

Now they run money, tell me why not, they got plenty

But there's still poverty in the 21st century

That don't make sense, but does anything really?

It's hard to meet another who would treat you sincerely

A Black man ain't nothing with his diamonds and braids

It's the same if he live in Africa and got AIDS

It's the same if he got a PhD and got paid

Yo, it's the same if he done a crime, got caught, in jail

It's a quick world with an upsurge of laziness

With them quick girls who act so dangerous

Maybe it was meant to be

But there isn't no guarantees

That life could be stress free from

Maybe we could make a change

Or things will remain the same

Wouldn't that be a shame? (Danger!)

Ayo, I never knew my mind was so dangerous

The way I printed on this paper

'Cause nobody ain't here doing me no favors

Got a street hustle with no street muscle

Live a street life without the street strife

Street nights, lights out, I get the beats right

I take each mic and I rhyme for each night

I got a pair of jeans that match for each Nike

And got a pair of eyes that take in each light

My mind cog wheels keep turning, I'm still learning

Got the kind of motivation that's determined

To try the untryable and do the undoable

Take risks, money maker, do the unusual

Bring it back, show these younger men about my pinnacle

Make a challenge to the cold-hearted and the cynical

Brought a miracle to a friend and a stranger

DL consists forward slash danger

Maybe it was meant to be

But there isn't no guarantees

That life could be stress free from

Maybe we could make a change

Or things will remain the same

Wouldn't that be a shame? (Danger!)
