[Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, Thin C, Felecia - Our Streetz lyrics]
What the hell is goin onnnnn?
(These are our blocks, these are our hoods
These are our streets)
It's a war zone in the poor zone
We chasin after the fortune
In the belly of the beast is scorchin
Little kids is forced to tote guns
We so numb it's like fo-fum
Bloody redrum for the income
Refusin to be a victim
We do it and take it and then some
Tryna get out, and give back
The government givin us no slack
They double up on our taxes
Send us to jail because we sell crack
But them airplanes been flyin
Since Reagan was the president
Was evident, seem irrelevant
What's the relevance to your precedence
Let us live, quit willie lynchin
Layzie Bone got the heart to mention
The reason we live in attention
Cause the po-po a gang of henchmen
Who resistin, quit trippin
I'm just tryin to earn a livin
Tryin to go up against the system
Keepin my ass up out of prison
Listen, you younger niggas
You got to have vision
If you see it you can read it
Jesus died for the vision
But the vision is to walk with swag
Hold your head and walk in brag
Never let 'em make you mad
Rep yo' set and get the cash
Emergin from the cig' butt, showin up
Comin up barbecues by the pool
The neighbors can't believe it's you
Livin how you will, house up on the hill
Rides with big wheels
It's they worst nightmare
Gimme mines right here, dark skin, curly hair
Soul man, African-American
I don't mind your kid starin at my dude
Dancin to my tunes
It don't matter cause we set the
Trend for everything they do
Put the road to the wheel
Put the fire in your meal
Took the dog from your wife
Put the log in her life
Now it's all about you get it
Cause yo' shit real light
We the ones that keep it poppin
And got the whole world vibin
You wanna get in our minds
Cause we got the perfect timin
To build a whole new world
Take my gold and my diamonds
But, it's okay cause I'm rhymin
Chasin this money and grindin
Up the ladder I'm climbin - and you
Can clock me as I roll by!
Whaaaaaat's goooooo-ing onnnnn
(Gotta know what's goin on
Better know what's goin on)
(Gotta know what's goin on
Better know what's goin on)
Innnnnn thiiiiiis, worrrrrrld
(Gotta know what's goin on
Better know what's goin on)
(Gotta know what's goin on
Better know what's goin on)
(These are our blocks, these are our hoods
These are our streets)
It's a war zone in the poor zone
