lyrics

RED IN MY EYE LIKE THEM OLD HOOD BRICKS I SEE NOT HEAR YA JUST A MIME IN THE MIX, LAST THING HE SAW WAS THAT SHINE BETWEEN THE RIBS I HEARD THE STORY THOUGHT ABOUT IT BETWEEN SIPS, THAT'S HOW SOME OF EM ARE THO WARRING LIKE VYBZ AND MAVADO MOVING BY THE CAR-LOAD, SNIFFER DOGS GET TREATS FOR DIRTY CARGO THAT'S BURNT MONEY WATCH IT SMOKE LIKE A MARLBORO, SOUTHERN CITY BUT IT FEELS LIKE A WESTERN AND DEATH RIDES A HORSE WITH A FISTFUL OF DOLLARS AND NO BITCH IS MODEST, SCHOOL OF HARDKNOCKS GRADUATES WITH DISHONOURS, WE DONS NO BOMBERS, LIGHTS IN THE BUILDINGS.. MINI FIRES, I'M NEVER YIELDING TO ANY LIARS, WARRIOR LEONIDAS CODE OF SILENCE LIVE MY LIFE PROUD GIVE MY SON GUIDANCE, WE HELLSBURN RIDERS.

(HOOK)
PEOPLE DIE IN THE CITY, THAT'S RIGHT, WE LIVE OUR LIVES IN THE CITY, DAY AND NIGHT,
GOTTA SURVIVE IN THE CITY, AINT NOTHING NICE, AINT NOTHING NICE RIGHT.

LIVE FROM MY CITY RIDE FOR MY CITY GLIDE THRU THE HOODS, OVERDRIVE SKY LOOKIN MISTY, THIS LIFE'S RISKY, YA NEVER KNOW TIL THE SCRIPTS UP AND SOME ACCIDENTS ARE IMPOSSIBLE TO FIX UP, BOOBS DO BURGS IN THE BURBS TO CHASE DRAGONS NOT BIRDS UP SHIT CREEK THE RIVER BANK'S THE KERB, LIVE AND LEARN IN AMONGST THE DIRT LIKE A FERN GOIN MAD LIKE CAGE WITH A PACK FULL OF SHERM, IMMACULATE WORDS…YOU VERMIN SHOULDA LEARNED, TATTLE TALE TENANTS GET STACKED UP AND BURNED, THE STREETS LIVE, BITUMEN SOUL WITH TARRED LUNGS, CAMERAS ARE THE EYES WITH FLESH OF DOLLAR FUNDS, MEMORY IS THE HISTORY WRITTEN BY DRUNK AUTHORS, VOICE IS THE WIND AND SIRENS ON CORNERS, FUCK LUCY LAWLESS…AINT NO WARRIOR QUEENS THERE'S WHOREISH RORTERS, AND CHALKED UP BRAWLERS.
