I met a young brotherhow young about eight
He seemed intelligent and rather quite straight
I greeted himand struck a conversation
To see if the youngster had some self-motivation
Peace brotherwhat's your nameand how ya be
He said I be soon coming off the currency
I said gettin paidhe said yeah like my man's brother
Who has a condo he shares with his baby's mother
He said a condo beats my apartment
With no lights and no gas and much backed up rent
No hot water or heatand invaded by plenty rats
That'll eat up the average alleycat
He said yeeahhhh boyyyeeethat's poverty
I said wordI know and it bothers me
Cuz we are the victimsof a situation
How wicked manseperated
A nation and got us cold-killin off one another
(word-wordto the mother)
It's getting hothow hothotter than july
Cuz the murder and crime rate is rising very high
For examplein my neighborhoodit's so hot
I'm often woke upfrom the alarming sound of a shot
So I'm thinking whatis my neighborhood a trap
Could this be the place marked x on the map?
Now I'm spotted like a targetin the shooting gallery
So I start to seek for a better salary
So I can escape from wherefrom this ghetto life area
Cause everyday you're getting scarier
*blam blam* and scarier and scarier Find More lyrics at www.sweetslyrics.com
Causing mass hysteriait's drama
Talkin bout drama
Not to be bold and disrespect the homeless
Cuz I can see that they suffer from a long list
From not having shelterand out on the street
Without a job and days without a bite to eat
Yo I feel for thosebut here's another side
About some more people that's living on the outside
Because of the fact that they chose the wrong way
And it took em on a trip for a long day
Got to the point you started stealing from your house
Stalking the rooms late at night like a mouse
Your family's upset and you've got to go
When it'sfivebelow and we're ex-pecting snow
And then you're on the train with a cup in your hand
Kicking dirtand making it look like sand
Then after you run that game for a while
You start sucking up tokens from out the turnstile
Are you that desperatejust to get a hit
Is it so effective that you won't quitand yo
Why do you come to me crying the blues?
About you can't get a job well go sell some street news
Then you can get straight and be real
But you'd rather rob and steal
And that's drama
Talkin bout drama
Not wonderama
But I'm talkin bout drama
Here what I'm sayin?
I'm not talkin bout your mama
Nahhhhbut I'm talkin bout drama
