Agony and anguish, body count nameless
Gangsters, bangers in the east coast, shameless
Now move mostly, cops watch closely
Years in the making and it’s not how it was supposed to be
Used to be a curfew, used to have [bad word] Now kids [bad word]  different colour is the enemy
Older cats scared cause they show no fear
Lack of respect and taking over spots is clear
In the news, few details of the crime scene
Death is the [bad word] for innocent teens
Any bystander, blocks have gamblers
Have second thoughts, bring your brandishing the hammer
 [bad word] 

It’s not a movie when your head’s up, shake down, faced with the tool
Cash it up for revival in this warfare every block is survival
Realise it’s the stars and the stripes operating crime legalized
All day every day in the USA

[Verse 2]

Black president, educated North Cak residents
Exposed hidden agendas and lies are evident
Got us representing causes I don’t want no part of
Bush is like Nino and we living in The Carter
lost soul wonders where the gospel is
Cause the government got us like hostages
And the kids don’t read; being smart ain’t cool
But some 10 years [bad word] through and shoot up your school
Banks is collapsing, gas is berserk [bad word]  I spend half of my money going back and forth to work
So after 8 years of Bush killing the earth, [bad word] yeah I’ll vote Obama for whatever it’s worth
 [bad word] 

[Verse 3]

Government officials neglect the poverty and serve the wealthy
While chicks work the pole unhealthy
Welfare recipients laid off work
Claim child support and living off family first
 [bad word] El, this ain’t how it supposed to be
We eating black cheese and [bad word]  stamp groceries
All these home forced closed and these jobs laid off
wall street seven hundred billion debt paid off

Wish to be college-bound on a scholarship
Pop dudes [bad word] out and your mom won’t acknowledge it
Prison bars just more than sixteen
Life bid, full term for erasing a dream

Don’t be confused by the [bad word] they put on the tube
And the New York Post and the damned Fox News
It’s the blood of the Indians and the chains of the slaves that made the,
“land of the free, and the home of the brave”
