[Verse One: DJ DX]

when i was young 
i use to chill outside 
now a days you can't 
because of homicides 
teens are holding sixteen
they're ready to die 
if biggie was here 
he would shed a tear 
and cry, mutiny 
in my hood is like 
Amistad, I cant 
watch the news 
cause it hurts 
my eyes, instead 
of killing each other 
we should learn 
to survive 
look brothers and sisters
were written in time 
martin took a bullet 
then Kennedy died 
Malcolm uplifted us 
he was gifted and wise 
in the streets its crimes 
men don't obey the law 
we use to fist fight 
now guns are drawn 
robberies going on 
all night long 
mothers screaming 
on the phone 
that they lost ed there son
hes laying 
in the streets 
call 911 
EMT is to late he died 
with blood in his lungs - 
 [bad word] One: Simeon Gold]

Stop the killing, 
stop the shooting, 
sowing the will of evil, 
spilling the blood 
of your own people yeah...
so rest in peace 
in eternal silence, 
stop the shooting, 
stop the violence...
blood in the city, 
blood in the town, 
each day another youth 
gets shot down..."

[Verse Two: DJ DX]

Before i thought 
about a rhyme 
or a line 
i woke early 
in the morning 
to the read 
the New York times
daily but really 
this whole world 
is getting scary 
how many obituaries 
and bodies 
we gotta bury 
I'm worried 
and petrified 
in this modern
day of time 
Zimmerman 
not guilty 
but he 
killed Treyvon
i keep writing 
to GOD 
but he wont respond
death after death 
but I'm still declined
my mind 
is growing older 
my heart turned colder 
death toll at 200 
and it's not even October 
hold ups in Atlanta 
different colored 
Bandannas 
blacks shooting blacks 
it's all caught 
on the camera 
but your local 
rapper 
is jumping out 
of a phantom ?!
if dying young 
is the answer 
then death is cancer 
my baby girl 
is something like 
princess Diana 
she wants to grow up 
and take trips 
to Guyana - 
 [bad word] Two: Simeon Gold]

Stop the killing, 
stop the shooting, 
sowing the will of evil, 
spilling the blood 
of your own people yeah...
so rest in peace 
in eternal silence, 
stop the shooting, 
stop the violence...
blood in the city, 
blood in the town, 
each day another youth 
gets shot down..."

[Verse Three: DJ DX]

Look at the system 
its built off of  [bad word] and prisons 
mean while 
there overseas 
bombing Innocent children 
what am i feeling?
dear lord please 
take it away!
I've been through 
so much 
i got a lot to say! 
O'Gs salute me 
when I'm around the way 
all the people 
shot and killed 
we pour alize 
we still with you 
we miss you 
even tho 
your gone 
verse after verse 
i keep your name 
in these songs 
first we lost 
Hadiya then
we lost Treyvon
it was a federal 
procedure 
with the Boston bombs
but behind 
close doors 
congress passed a law 
can somebody 
please tell me 
what am i leaving for?! 
when my country 
gives us guns 
just to fight 
there wars!!!
live by the gun 
you shall die 
by the sword 
before 
i came to this world 
i had a talk 
with the lord 
i was sent here 
to spread 
a message 
through my vocal cords 
 [bad word] Three: Simeon Gold]

Stop the killing,
