Yo Ease let`s do this...
I am a nightmare walking, psychopath talking
King of my jungle just a gangster stalking
Living life like a firecracker quick is my fuse
Then dead as a deathpack the colors I choose
Red or Blue, Cuz or Blood, it just don`t matter
Sucker die for your life when my shotgun scatters
We gangs of L.A. will never die - just multiply
You see they hit us then we hit them
Then we hit them and they hit us, man
It`s like a war, ya know what I`m sayin`
People dont even understand
They don`t even know what they dealing with
You wanna get rid of the gangs it`s gonna take a lotta work
But people don`t understand the size of this
This is no joke man, this is real
You don`t know me, fool
You disown me, cool
I don`t need your assistance, social persistance
Any problem I got I just put my fist in
My life is violent but violent is life
Peace is a dream, reality is a knife
My colors, my honour, my colors, my all
With my colors upon me one soldier stands tall
Tell me what have you left me, what have I got
Last night in cold blood my young brother got shot
My home got jacked
My mother`s on crack
My sister can`t work cause her arms show trax
Madness insanity live in profanity
Then some punk claimin` they understandin` me
Give me a break, what world do you live in
Death is my sect, guess my religion
Yo my brother was a gang banger
and all my homeboys bang
I don`t know why I do it man, I just do it
I never had much of nuffin man
Look at you man, you`ve got everything going for yourself
and I ain`t got nuffin man, I`ve got nuffin
I`m living in the ghetto man
just look at me man, look at me
My pants are saggin braided hair
suckers stare but I don`t care
my game ain`t knowelgde my game`s fear
I`ve no remorse so squares beware
But my true mission is just revenge
you ain`t in my sect, you ain`t my friend
wear the wrong color your life could end
homocides my favorite venge
Listen to me man
no matter whatcha do don`t ever join a gang
you don`t wanna be in it man,
You`re just gonna end up in a mix of dead freinds and time in jail I
know, if
I had a chance like you,
I would never be in a gang man
but I didn`t have a chance
You know I wish i did
I`ll just walk like a giant police defiant
you`ll say to stop but I`ll say that I cant
my gangs my family its all that I have
I`m a star, on the walls is my autograph
You don`t like it, so you know where you can go
cause the streets are my stage and terror`s my show
phsyco-analize tried diognising me wise
It was a joke brother the brutally died
But it was mine, so let me define
my territory don`t cross the line
Don`t try to act crazy
cause the bitch dont thank me
you can be read like a punk
it wouldn`ta made me
cause my colors death
thou we all want peace
but our war won`t end,
they`ll always see
See the wars of the street gangs will always get to me man
But I don`t wanna be down with this situation man
but I`m in here, if I had something betta to do I think I`d do it but
right
now I`m just down here boye
I`m trying to get money cause I`m smart
I`m gunna get paid while I`m out here
I`m gunna get that paper, ya know what I`m saying
If I had a chance like you,
maybe I would be in school
but I`m not, I`m out here living day to day surviving
and I`m willing to die for my colors
Yo`ll please stop, cause I want ya all to live.
This is Ice-T, Peace...
