1
[Chorus]
2
A lot of money got made, drugs got sold
3
Lives got took on these corners so cold, oh
4
Imagine if the street lights, could talk and tell the story of the street life
5
Every ghetto in America is all the same
6
Chasing after money got us all insane, oh
7
Imagine if the street lights, could talk and tell the story of the street life
8
Ah, I look back and reflect doing a hundred pass
9
Thinking about it got me have me on the gas
10
Vivid is the picture coded in my dna
11
Mammy bless her heart, as we walked out the door she would pray for us
12
Knew that Jake was on us, dex... against us
13
Same shit to foretold it,
14
Another life flushed down the canal
15
Left the house without saying goodbye and didn't come home
16
It's all too common, and prolly me if it wasn't for Rami
17
I put that on my brother who was... with the iron
18
The hood is full of life but inside niggers dying
19
Instead of prosperity, only jealousy's thriving
20
Street lights... makeshift memorials
21
Know how the story goes, I ain't trying to bore you though
22
I'm just trying to she'd a little light
23
Job done, even if I save only one life, listen
24
[Chorus]
25
A lot of money got made, drugs got sold
26
Lives got took on these corners so cold, oh
27
Imagine if the street lights, could talk and tell the story of the street life
28
Every ghetto in America is all the same
29
Chasing after money got us all insane, oh
30
Imagine if the street lights, could talk and tell the story of the street life
31
Missing dark tunnel vision, the light at the end damages anybody listening
32
I'm talking to myself again, we so close but yet it seems so far
33
It's like 10 steps back and just one step forward
34
Just one more push and 60 more bars,
35
Comes to the dreams we have, the life we want
36
If these blood sweat and tears could talk, they'd be arguing,
37
With the look in our eyes saying all...
38
That bone in your head, get shattered like windshield
39
Now how that shit field?
40
Yeah you got a lot of nerve, you deserve
41
Every drop of that pain, when you playing with the mob
42
Can't you see we concentrating on this baking
43
Lot of lives got taken, lot of time spent in the cages
44
So we spend our days doing whatever must be done to become
45
The ones that steady burn like the sun because
46
[Chorus]
47
A lot of money got made, drugs got sold
48
Lives got took on these corners so cold, oh
49
Imagine if the street lights, could talk and tell the story of the street life
50
Every ghetto in America is all the same
51
Chasing after money got us all insane, oh
52
Imagine if the street lights, could talk and tell the story of the street life
53
I can tell you about some shit you don't really wanna hear
54
Some many disappear out here
55
One time I saw a man with a gun
56
Chasing another nigger trying to run
57
And even know they grew up on the same block
58
He ain't hesitate to gun him down in the same spot
59
The nigger that you knew from elementary
60
Will make your ass unsolved mystery
61
[Chorus]
62
A lot of money got made, drugs got sold
63
Lives got took on these corners so cold, oh
64
Imagine if the street lights, could talk and tell the story of the street life
65
Every ghetto in America is all the same
66
Chasing after money got us all insane, oh
67
Imagine if the street lights, could talk and tell the story of the street life
