Gza - Victim lyrics

rate me

Just another victim of the, victim of the ghetto<br />

Just another victim, that's how it goes<br />

<br />

Heavy foot traffic jam the hallway all day<br />

Adolescence, workin' for small pay<br />

World so little, he could never leave his block<br />

His home full of riddle, so he always need his glock<br />

<br />

Coast with his eye open, keep his metal smokin'<br />

Young wasted minds, fiendin' on dimes, cokin'<br />

Forgot kids, quick to break rules an' known to make fools<br />

Out of many, down the streets be more safe than school<br />

<br />

There's no diploma that can break him from the coma<br />

A bloody war in the country, the youth hungry<br />

On the corner, hyenas amongst me<br />

Yabbin' 'bout the stories, they be hearin', always swearin'<br />

<br />

Can't even spell the shit that he be wearin'<br />

Caught up in the silk web of material<br />

Superficial stains ya brain tissue, that's the issue<br />

The young is lost at their own cost, dreamin'<br />

Screamin' how they never hold positions, that's demeanin'<br />

<br />

Mothers of murder victims share the same grief<br />

The elderly shake their head in disbelief<br />

An' no relief came 'til I aimed<br />

An' blast one shot an' left my name, the GZA<br />

<br />

Just another victim of the, victim of the ghetto<br />

Just another victim, that's how it goes<br />

<br />

My residence is a city where army veterans smoke rocks<br />

On torn down blocks drug spots set out their shops<br />

An' cops watch innocent niggaz roamin' in flocks<br />

Romanism in tops, papers an' knots<br />

<br />

Churches an' liquor stores on every corner<br />

Plot to get money not, some funny niggaz act<br />

Like they could pop glocks an' those who can't cop<br />

Sisters givin' up ass a lot, brothers givin' up cash a lot<br />

They be strugglin' to become someone because their parents not<br />

<br />

Just another victim of the ghetto, where lost minds settle<br />

When the Devil uncivils society an' die free<br />

With double 'W' followed by J-D around the necks an' wrists<br />

The God is now a dog, the earth is called a bitch<br />

<br />

An' all my people wish to get rich in this wilderness<br />

To push a Lexus, ice on everythin'<br />

From rings an' bracelets to the necklaces<br />

Children molested within these pest infested buildings<br />

Thieves, uneducated in these schools paint on the ceilings<br />

<br />

Is peelin' off but all I see is lost black babies callin'<br />

"Please somebody save me, please somebody save me"<br />

<br />

Just another victim of the, victim of the ghetto<br />

Just another victim, that's how it goes<br />

Just another victim of the, victim of the ghetto<br />

Just another victim, that's how it goes<br />

<br />

Just another, just another victim of the ghetto
