This a true story, about two people faced up to revenged. This is who we are! This is where we come from! In the city!
The city in straits, dire, one nation under fire, the slum born of desire, the squeal of the tires, turn around take the tour, Scenery du jour. What’s wrong? Not sure? Dispel the allure, the place we were bred, the shit that was said, the thoughts that we bled, a layer that was shed, the gangs, the violence, stupidity, nonsense, broken homes, the silence, loving parent, kindness.
The playground empty, the friends that helped me, the things they lent me, the city never left me.
It’s all or nothing, the wind keeps cutting, there’s always something, in the city.
The sprinkler, the trees, the park bench, the breeze, the birds, the bees, the wants, the needs, the girls, the sluts, No love, just cuts, the mansions, the ruts, the owners go nuts, the bums that we fought, they’ll snatch what we’ve got, all the goods that they bought, are beer food and pot, the overpass, shelter, she left, we felt her, the crack when he belts her, last time, go get her.
The sirens, the cops, the profiling, the stops, if the other shoe drops, life in prison, tops.
It’s all or nothing, the wind keeps cutting, there’s always something, in the city.
We all made it out of this alive, in a place where we could have just died, cemetery where the past still lies, we did what we could to just survive.
The kids in the street, a car bumps a beat, members of the elite, walkers take a seat, the meth house exploding, the narcs exposing, the friends worth noting, the people exploiting, the ones who don’t listen, better life we’re wishing, by the blunt that we’re kissing, exodus mission, a messenger christened, the message they’re missing, opinions dismissing, a lesson not given.
The cracks on the ground, the money that we found, echo of the sound, the new kings are crowned.
It’s all or nothing, the wind keeps cutting, there’s always something, in the city. Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa. |
