Gza - Victim lyrics
rate meJust 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
