SLAINE - Stop The Violence lyrics

rate me

Yeah, since the beginning of time a life has been lost from a murder

Since they hung Christ from the cross

A man stabbed in the abdomen the knife has been tossed

Pieces that live in a river where the lifeless are washed

Is it love, lust, or anger? Your wife is divorced

From an expensive addiction, the price that it costs

Is too senseless to mention but lies lay inside of the eyes

Of these guys disguised with ruthless intentions

The gruesomest henchmen, screws loosened with wrenches

So I guess it takes a Slaine man to speak truth in a sentence

And I don't need to speak to a priest to find peace

In order to recoup some repentance

But all it takes is my anger to be sparked

To shoot from the trenches and kill a man

Become a prisoner who's cooped in the fences

Or come up with some robbery loot

Moving with Lex, Coupes, and Benzes

But when the greed and the need for speed

Leads you into weeds with diesel in your jeans

You're breathing a disease

Injected, infected in a sinister mind

Don't cry, this has been since the beginning of time

They tell us we can stop the violence

Cause we pack heat, pop the irons

This is the cycle it is, I can't break it

I just live in this world, I didn't make it

This is rap music, is it white music, is it black music?

You think it's so gangster that they clap to it

Godfather, Good Fellas soundtrack movie

Spit it, played it, sprayed it, I found that uzi

Who's he really playing our shit clean

Ain't reality, our grip got AR-15's

And you're gonna need an army to push

To come against us

Your whole squad's poonany and puss

So what am I, a pacifist or an activist

Acting pissed with the mac that spits at ya Acuras

You're shooting at us, we're clapping back at ya's

Come on man, we made our money wrapping packages

I'm fucking with you now, I bastard your kids

I know what I knew homie and I rap what I live

I never front, I show you how backwards it is

Till you hear the bullets crack in the back of your ribs

What!
