Eightball - Intro lyrics

rate me

Talking In The Background* <br />

Uh <br />

The streets of my city be gritty <br />

Young niggaz pack plenty and ain't never show no pity <br />

Many die on streets of concrete blasted from the heat <br />

From under the seat niggaz just tryin' to make ends meat <br />

Trying to eat day to day livin' with no religion <br />

Luxury cars and this money got my full attention <br />

School teachers and the preachers don't know what to teach us <br />

They don't get a second look without them ghetto features <br />

Created so the non pigmentated rated <br />

Pornographic caught they children learn the words and say it <br />

Save the monsters, but don't nobody know the lord <br />

Status depends on the baddest shit you can afford <br />

And look at me I'm in the middle of the confusion <br />

Crime in my blood and I need a transfusion <br />

Take it how you wanna take it <br />

I gotta twist and break it <br />

Make it shine to distinguish from the ones who fake it <br />

and if it comes out raw, and uncontrollable <br />

Money's foldable, fuck a hip-hop quoteable <br />

Nobody felt what I was feeling when I wrote this shit <br />

Broke this shit, but that ain't new so I can cope with this <br />

Hope it get better for those who don't get a chance <br />

To advance, and dig the shit I be saying <br />

You know what might make what I say a little clearer <br />

If mothafuckers judge the one they see in the mirror <br />

*Talking till the End
