Drug boy said it's show time
|
Streets don't give a damn
|
They filled with such pollution
|
The kids don't stand a chance
|
|
We're trapped inside the matrix
|
Forced to play our hand
|
We're fill with so much hatred
|
The kids don't stand a chance
|
|
I said the kids don't, the kids don't stand, the kids don't stand a chance
|
I said the kids don't, the kids don't stand, the kids don't stand a chance
|
|
Well, since I was planted at birth
|
I abandoned my own planet and I landed on earth
|
As I kid I never understood what I observed
|
Some of it was strange but most of it disturbed me
|
Always in detention for the lack of my attention
|
You could call it deficit, really I just didn't listen
|
And I was always missin'
|
The teachers like, where is bobby simons?
|
But tryna get a record deal is all I can I remember
|
It's funny cause lookin back on the past that I had all my days in the streets tryna prove that I was bad
|
I still elevated to the level that i'm at
|
Still elevated to the level that i'm at
|
|
Drug boy said it's show time

Streets don't give a damn

The kids don't stand a chance
|

We're trapped inside the matrix
|
Forced to play our hand
|
We're fill with so much hatred
|
The kids don't stand a chance
|
|
I said the kids don't, the kids don't stand, the kids don't stand a chance
|
I said the kids don't, the kids don't stand, the kids don't stand a chance
|
|
Sometimes it's hard to grow
|
While livin in fear of the unknown
|
How can he ever give love
|
When no love is in his heart?
|
A child can barely see that i
|
Do worry bout tomorrow
|
And what it beholds,
|
He drowns himself
|
Deep down in his sorrow
|
Will you run or will you share your light
|
Tell a story of the live and try
|
See it when we're given hope
|
That we know that we can grow
|
|

We're trapped inside the matrix

Forced to play our hand
|
We're fill with so much hatred
|
The kids don't stand a chance
|
|
I said the kids don't, the kids don't stand, the kids don't stand a chance
|
I said the kids don't, the kids don't stand, the kids don't stand a chance
