Body Count - Enter the Dark Side lyrics

People say, "Ice, you got money"
I say, "Man, I just got some money
And I know how easy it is to lose it"
You know what I’m saying?
I know how one mistake can cost you it all
I didn’t come from money
I came from the dark side
And I never wanna go back there

The ghetto is not black, the ghetto is poor
You don’t know me
You ain’t never met me before
You pre-judge my life and you
Don’t know my pain
You feel you’re so much better
When we’re all the same
Because you have money you feel
You’re above us all
So fucking self-righteous until you
Take that fall
And then you’re flat broke and
You need food to eat
Once behind guarded gates and now
You walk the streets
Police are different now
They get fucked with every day
You walk my people now
They move the other way
You never gave a fuck
Just lived your selfish life
You never broke a law
Hungry you fucking might
Welcome to the dark side
Survival makes you blood thirsty
Into the dark side
Survival makes you blood thirsty
Welcome to the dark side
Survival makes you blood thirsty

Don’t ever judge a man till
You lived his life
The tables could turn in the blink of an eye
Talking shit damn from that
High horse you ride
One mistake for you, into the dark side

Into the dark side
Survival makes you blood thirsty
Welcome to the dark side
Survival makes you blood thirsty
Into the dark side
Survival makes you blood thirsty
