(Tupac)
Now of course I want peace on the streets
but realisticly
painting perfect pictures ain’t never work
my mysery was so deep
couldn’t sleep through all my preasures
my quest for cash
I learned fast
you survive voilent measures
memorys of adalicent years
their was unity
but after puperty we roll over
to our community
so many bodies dropping
its got to stop
I want to help
but still I’m stepping
keeping my weapon
must protect myself
promise of a better tomorrow
ain’t never reaching
plus my teachers were to petrfied in class to teach me
sipping thunderbird
and grape cool-aid
calling Earl since my stomach was empty
it suduced me to f*ck the world
watch my lil homiez
lose there child hood to guns
nobody cries no more
cause we all die for fun
so why you ask me if I want peace
if you can’t grant it
niggas fighting across the whole planet
so we can never be peace
(Chorus)
We’ll never be peace, or all we all just headed for doom, still
casumed
by the peace, and i’ll know there never be peace, that’s why I keep my
pistol when i walk the streets cause there never be peace
(Marvelouz)
No time to rest
they stressed out
I can’t remember the days my homie was here
now a days we live in fear
the stuggle is still here
so now who’s grabbing there strap
who’s getting bucked wild
representing the generation of killers
when I was a child had many dreams
reality kept me and my homiez stressing
tyring to raise my baby girl to be the strongest
know when I’m doing wrongest
I never had a bright day
just drunkless smoking blunts
getting faded
wishing my partna made it
if it was peace
or ???????????
I know there will never be
all my tears were shed
when I lost my homie number three
it’s getting harder to see
impossibilty should we just face it
can’t get through the pain
but still I can’t erase it
so many trials and tribulations
things we facing
wicked days
can’t see no brighter days
it’s time to chase it
cross dreams
cause the scene is when you never get by
that’s why I got to stay high
you’ll never know when you’ll die
my heart will never leave the ghetto
I know to rise only in peace
that’s why I say
there ain’t never going to be no peace
(Chorus)
(Storm)
Living life lonely
but I can’t even cry
cause visions of diseption
all around me
got my eyes full of despise
who can I trust
why even try
they say the world is mine
but I know that’s a lie
living to die
set up from birth
steady dreaming
wishing for better days
but all I see is demons
close my eyes
reminisence of my childhood
all I felt was pain from my arrival
no memories of nothing nice
nothing but blinded reminders of my future life
I’m freaking out
I’m getting closer to that other level
will I be strong with game
or just the heartless devil
I hope I’m able to find peace in me
cause there’s a storm sixty four inches deep in me
and I try to do the right thing
but it’s the wrong thing
that seems to bring me right back
to this dirty game
there never be peace
f*ck peace
(Chorus) x3
(Tupac)
shit f*ck peace, on the strength to my niggas get a peace, we can’t
have
peace, how the f*ck we gonna live happy when we ain’t got none, tear
drops and closed caskets, these mothafuckas are smiling but don’t mean
much, why cause I got to be a thug, see drugs gonna turn this
