What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Black hoods, cops ' projects
2
Sewers flooded with foul blockage
3
The gutter's wild and every child watches
4
Changin top locks with ripped off hinges
5
Doors kicked off, drunks stag off smirnoff, wipe your beard off
6
Crippled dope fiends in wheelchairs stare
7
Vision blurry, cus buried deep in they mind are hidden stories
8
Bet he's a mirror image of that 70's era
9
Finished for the rest of his life, till he fades out
10
The liquor store workers miss him but then it plays out
11
So many ways out the hood but no signs say out
12
Mental slavehouse where gats go off, I show off
13
Niggas up north, prison-ology talk, till they time cut off
14
You should chill if you short, prepare deep thought
15
To hit the street again, get it on, get this paper and breathe again
16
Plan to leave somethin' behind
17
So your name'll live on, no matter what the game lives on
18
[Chorus]
19
Lookin' out of my project window
20
Oh, I feel uninspired
21
Lookin' out of my project window
22
Oh, it makes me feel, so tired
23
Yo, if this piano's the cake then my words are the candles
24
Light it up, make a wish, and them angels will grant you
25
Impatient once tried, but in those angels and bamboo
26
They lit it up, *puff* *puff*, hit it up, *puff*
27
Now they dismantled, think the whole world is crazy, got a 9
28
Watch where you walk, 2 dollar fine, sign of the times here in New York
29
Hi Satan, United Nations quietly taken, to own your soul
30
Take it or leave it, just my evaluation
31
Stack loot and guns, teach the girls karate, school your sons not to hate
32
But to stay awake, cus the scars a razor make is nothin' in comparison
33
To the gas left on this whole mass, if we don't get it controlled fast
34
Might as well be, laughin' with Malcolm X's assassin as we die slow
35
Perishin', brain dead from a Erickson
36
Words are the medicine, two teaspoons for goons
37
A cup of it for those thuggin' it, y'all sing the tune
38
[Chorus]
39
Another day, another dollar, my mother will holla
40
She said "go and see the world for myself, and my brother Shafala"
41
Pops was smooth, from his top to his shoes
42
Sang the rules, guitar strings he played smokin' his ?
43
? hat, picture this yo, seventies cat
44
He wrote his music in the back of the crib, I did my homework
45
At night the windows were speakers, pumpin' life out
46
A fight, people screamin' cus somebody pulled a knife out
47
So I look at this poem, I'm hooked to this tune
48
Every night the same melody, hell sounded so heavenly
49
But jail was ahead of me, ??
50
Reading's what I should've done, cus my imagination would run
51
I was impatient to get out and become part of the noise out there
52
I used to stare, five stories down, basketball courts, shot up playgrounds
53
And I witnessed the murders and police shake-downs
54
Yo, the hustlas and hoes, drugs and fo-fos
55
This was the life of every kid, lookin' out project windows
56
Oh, outta my window
57
Lookin' out of my project window
58
Oh, it makes me feel, so tired
59
Lookin' out of my project window
60
Oh, I feel uninspired
61
Lookin' out of my project window
62
Oh, it makes me feel, so tired
63
Lookin' out of my project window
64
Oh, I feel uninspired
65
Starin out of, of my window
66
Oh I, feel so tired
67
Oh yeah, outta my window
68
Oh, lookin' out, lookin' out
69
Lookin' out my window, oh yeah
70
Makes me, feel so tired
71
Outta my window, out my project window
72
Lord I feel, uninspired
