Verse 1:(Common)
3
Memories on corners with the fo's and the mo's
4
Walk to the store for the rose, talking straightforward to hoes
5
Got uncles that smoke, and some put blow up they nose
6
To cope with the lows, the wind is cold and it blows
7
In they socks and they soles, niggaz holdin' they rolls
8
Corners leave souls opened and closed, hopin' for mo'
9
We know where to go, niggaz rollin' in droves
10
They shoot the wrong way, 'cause they ain't know and they goes
11
The streets ain't safe 'cause they ain't knowing the code
12
By the foes I was told, either focus or fold
13
Got cousins with flows, hope they open some doors
14
So we can cop clothes and roll in a Rolls
15
Now I roll in a Olds, with windows that don't roll
16
Down the roads where cars get broken and stole
17
These are the stories told by Stony and Cottage Grove
18
The world is cold, the block is hot as a stove
19
On the corners
20
Hook:
21
(Kanye West)
22
I wish I could give you this feelin'
23
I wish I could give this feelin'
24
On the corners niggaz rob or kill
25
And dyin' just to make a livin', huh?
26
(Spoken: Lost Prophets)
27
We overstated, we underrated, we educated
28
The corner was our time when time stood still and
29
Gators and snakeskins and
30
Yellow and pink and
31
? profiles ??
32
Verse 2: (Common)
33
Street lights and deep nights, cats tryin' to eat right
34
Ridin' no-seat-bikes, with work to feed hypes
35
So they can get sweet Nike's, they head and they feet right
36
Desires of street life, cars and weed types
37
Its hard to breathe nights, days are thief-like
38
The beasts roam the streets, the police is Greek-like
39
Game that is deep, we speak and believe hype
40
Banged in the streets has cop left for deep life (?)
41
Its steep life, coming up where niggaz is sheep-like
42
Rappers and hoopers, we strive to be like
43
G's with three strikes, seeds that need light
44
Cheese and recite, needs and BE strife
45
The corner, where struggle and greed fight
46
We write songs about wrong 'cause its hard to see right
47
Look to the sky, hoping it will bleed light
48
Reality's a bitch, and I heard that she bites
49
The corner
50
Hook
51
(Spoken: Lost Prophets)
52
The corner was our magic, our music, our politics
53
Fires raised as tribal dances and war cries
54
Broke out on different corners
55
Power to the people
56
Black power
57
Black is beautiful
58
Verse 3: (Common)
59
Black church services, murderers, Arabs serving burgers
60
As cats with gold permanents, move they bags as herbalists
61
The dirt isn't just fertile, its people workin' and earnin' this
62
The curb getters go where the cats flow and the current is
63
Its so hot that niggaz burn to live
64
The furnace is, whether money movin', the determined live
65
We talk shit, play lotto, and buy German beers
66
Its so black packed with action that's affirmative
67
The corners
68
Hook
69
(Spoken: Lost Prophets)
70
The corner was our Rock of Gibraltar, our Stonehenge
71
Our Taj Mahal, our monument
72
Our testimonial to freedom, to peace, and to love
73
Down on the corner
