Generate meaning
1
Life goes on in the streets of my hood when you die
2
But some cry and gets by, while others choose to wonder why
3
His life was took at such an early age
4
A young nigga who lived in a rage died by the gage
5
He used to hustle on the street corners
6
His mom would always beg him to quit but he didn't wanna
7
As he got older, he got even worse
8
'Til a real nigga showed him the purpose of a hearse
9
A cold night in his hood, he had a tangle
10
The brother he was squabblin' with, had broke his ankle
11
Laid him out in the driveway
12
Some people knew he wouldn't survive but hey
13
I ain't the one to speak up on another's
14
All I can do is try to open his eyes and help the brother
15
He chose the wrong way and that's the route he took
16
Born and brought up as an angel but he died as a crook
17
He had a baby that he couldn't raise
18
And she will never see her father again 'cause he's in a grave
19
I always think about [unverified]
20
"My daddy was a dopeman, so I'ma be a dope dealer"
21
How will the family explain it?
22
"My daughter had a baby for a 'caine head!"
23
He ain't around to see her walk
24
Dry her eyes when she cries, pick her up when she falls
25
Just the thought of a kid livin' fly fucks me up
26
When his girl has to raise a bastard child
27
It gets deeper, he used to punch her and beat her
28
She was loyal to his ass but accused as a cheater
29
She had a good deck but she picked the wrong card
30
Had a kid, now she's realizin' life is hard
31
A big time dope dealer's all she wanted
32
Who drove a Jag or a Benz so she could flaunt it
33
The situation's got me guessin'
34
But the answer remains to be a question
35
He lived his life in a lie
36
I guess you only get a minute to pray, and a second to die
37
It was crazy how it happened
38
Some niggaz rolled by in the Riviera cappin'
39
All I could see was a pistol spittin' rounds
40
And the boy was just screamin' as he fell to the ground
41
A woman yelled, get an ambulance
42
But I knew he was dead, he didn't stand a chance
43
You shoulda seen him, he was scared
44
A bullet goes to his chest and one to his head
45
He just laid there in silence and all I heard was the sirens
46
Paramedics pulled up
47
Followed by a law man and then came a firetruck
48
Put his ass on the stretcher
49
But if he survives, I'm willin' to betcha
50
He'll be out for revenge
51
They patched him up within a week he was back at it again
52
Went to his brother on the North side
53
Grab your shit, it's a hit, we're gonna take a long ride
54
Packed it up in the trunk
55
AK-47, M-11 and a pump
56
Rolled by [unverified] on Scott Street
57
School was lettin' out
58
‽Yo, you ain't gonna shoot yet?" "Watch me!"
59
Opened his trunk and grabbed a shotgun
60
He shot him
61
Put his tooly on the front seat
62
Continued his mission, as he headed down the street
63
The kids was just starin' at each other
64
J.D. rolled by and smoked black's brother
65
Reached in his coat and grabbed a 'port
66
Full speed down Reed, shot his mom on the porch
67
On his way down Cullard
68
His brother was just dazed in a shock, "Why you do it?"
69
"Why you shot his moms Jay? Shit"
70
"He, he, he, he, he hah man fuck that bitch"
71
Went to the store to use the pay phone
72
Called up Mack, "Aiyyo J.D. Homey"
73
Hung it up and rolled down Dagger
74
Headin' for the nigga he was after
75
By the time he arrived at the scene
76
Malcolm was ready for anything
77
He tried to sneak around the back way
78
Never thought of bein' taken out on that day
79
Black boy, black coat
80
Stood around the corner as he passed slit his throat
81
He didn't fall so he fired
82
One to the middle of his skull, he's expired
83
A whole army came out
84
Twenty-seven niggaz all strapped out of one house
85
That how it happens in the acre
86
One nigga died in the park in the paper
87
Shit gets deeper but why?
88
I guess you only get a minute to pray and a second to die
