Tune-Yards - Gangsta lyrics

What's a boy to do if
He'll never be a gangsta?
Anger in his heart
But he'll never be a gangsta
If you move into his neighborhood
He'll never make a sound, ooh!

What's a boy to do if he'll never be a rasta?
Singing from his heart
But he'll never be a rockstar
If you move into his neighborhood
He'll never make a sound
If you move into his neighborhood

Bang bang, oi! Never move to my hood
Cause danger is crawlin' out the wood
Bang bang, boy-ee never move to my hood
Cause danger is crawlin' out the wood

What's a girl to do if
She'll never be a rasta?


Singing from her heart
But she'll never be a rockstar?
If you move into her neighborhood
She'll never make a sound
If you move into her neighborhood
She'll never make a
If you move into her neighborhood
She'll never make a sound

You gonna put that on tape for posterity?
Rewind the tape!

Life in the city life in the city
("this is happening?")
