Ooh, in your eyes
In your eyes, we were the perfect ones
But we fell
Everybody dropping like flies
Seen a little girl, tears in her eyes
Heard her brother got shot last night
Wore the wrong colors on the wrong side
How can I explain everybody dies?
Some sooner, others in a couple nights
Late nights, summer 4th of July
Fireworks gunshots coincide
Everybody quick, kids go inside
Better duck or run for your life
I heard your homie went and caught a body
I heard his lil brother sippin' on Bacardi
Her little sister start to slit her wrists now
Her stepmother slowly turning to a bitch now
One sip, two sips, oh it's pills now
Pop a Xanny, Percocet, your pain is killed now
I know this kid who's finally living in the hills now
And he don't worry bout a motherf*ckin' bill now
His parents never home they never pay attention
So he start slangin drugs just hoping for redemption
He throw a party, and it's open invitation
But an unwanted guest shows up and then his fate's in
My name is death, it's a pleasure to finally meet ya
Snort a line, pop a pill, Heaven will greet ya
Restless eyes, I can't sleep uh
Carry burdens from all this evil
We in too deep these days, we in too deep uh
We in too deep these days, we in too deep uh
We in too deep these days we in too deep uh
There are way too many wolves that hide among the sheep uh
Too many issues that are screwin' up the peace uh
The president could give a f*ck about a "beaner"
We pick their fruits while they picking us to remove us
I'm sick of fights with the courts when power misused uh
But they ain't do shit when all these girls get abused uh
The higher power one day gonna come for you uh
They want us in the hood to keep us down they love it
Then when we out the hood they use us as their puppet
But like Lewinski, man y'all can go and suck it
They want a good Brown boy, chinga tu madre
Homeboy we here to stay, si ya tu sabes
We never fall or fold, we only gettin' money
I wanna take a chance to finally thank the Lord now
Today we down but one day he gon' lift us all now
Lord forgive them for they know not what they do
In your hands we commend our spirit to speak the truth
And for future generations, may we make fairer lives
Remember our faces, so that we may be with you in paradise
