My City Lyric
Common
ONE DAY IT'LL ALL MAKE SENSE
This the city of Chicago The state of confusion The style I'm using is
free Or at least it would be if my mind was Peep I'm behind cause I
didn't handle my function while in high school Although I was cool The
hood I live in ain't that proper Cause a cop a stop ya And have you at a
hundred and eleventh before you can say not guilty I'm not filthy Nor am
I rich Ain't that a bitch Like life is Not your wife is See that
your better halve Do your math And peep that two halves make a whole
And all I have to hold Is my self pride So these streets I strive
Like a Black Panther Asking can the situation get much worst All
I do is try to appeal to the masses As the phrase keep it real passes
The teeth of too many phoney individuals Snakes, that smooth like
criminals They create chemicals That the Earth hate Doing their
damndest to decrease my birth rate I'd settle for lesser knowing I'm worth
wait Or at least my weight in precious gems So I'm steadily steadly
steadly Trying to lose my religion, like R E M Created in His own image
so are we him? And through all this crises Shid(Shit) I wonder where
Christ is Well he damn sure not in K town or the wild hundreds Where
they broadcast G.D. till the world blow-up And Stone run it Hunted by
police for display in state vile cages Come out to make minimum wages
And with a desiese that are contagious It is fucking outrages The
amounts of Black and Brown they lock up But the Most High encourages me to
put the glock up And Stock up on do for self knowledge A brother
couldn't afford to go to collage So I had to learn form the school of hard
knock On the hard blocks of the Chi Even I, think about moving out to
River Oaks As my liver soaks In mad Hennesy Cause I got a bad
tendency To do a lot of drinking Now I do a lot of thinking
Blinking, was your third eye When you heard I was one of the chosen
one Industry doors keep closing (sing) Watch the closing doors
Niggas want a record deal But can they deal with a record? Cause
once they get rich They tend to switch Like a sissy Please miss me
With all that bullshit you popping This knowledge I'm gonna keep
dropping Even if you had one of them red octagon Motherfuckers say Mylik
how you make your living? I say by breathing oxygen
