Smile on my face but its really no joke
5
You feel it in the streets people breathe without hope
6
They goin' through the motion, they dimmin' down they focus

The focus gettin' clear and the light turn sharp

Cradle to the grave talk'll lead you on a shell
28
Universal ghetto life holla black you know it well
