[Intro: Cappadonna]
It`s always a struggle, yeah
Don`t care how you look at
P.J.`s, you know how it get, dirty, dirty
Straight up and down, whole Staten Island (uh-huh)
Slums, still the same, dude... word
[Cappadonna]
From Park Hill to Jungle Nil`, we fight like Navy SEAL
Don`t get killed, chicks can`t run in them heals
Niggas whippin` out guns, payin` them bills
Life is a bitch, you best not snitch
Muthafucka, this the real, always
The dope fiends, the crack stashed in the hallways
Style hold it down, tell Polite call Kane
Don`t never test this, we try`nna make all aids
Just niggas down when we blaze, crime pays
Survival in the P.J.`s, or graffiti experts, M.C.`s and the D.J.`s
Better watch your back when flippin` them pies
Real niggas be goin` down right in front of your eyes
If you on the block gettin` it, or a straight nine to five
Still real, Homicide Hill, police circlin`
NARCs got pictures of your grill, street turbulance
[Chorus: Cappadonna]
Cuz everytime I close my eyes, I could feel the rain
And everywhere I seem to go girl, can`t stop the pain
No... can`t stop the pain, no..
[Cappadonna]
Uh... this one`s for mamma
Niggas be gettin` slumped in my projects, it`s real violent
Crackheads be on the steps, young bloods`ll pop somethin`
Just to get that rep, everyday it`s like this
Don`t even come outside, if you ain`t try`nna get no rich
Niggas murk each other for a small amount of chips
Bloods fightin` other Bloods, there`s no Crips where I live
Somethin` gotta give, niggas bust one another
Turn around and watch other kids, my hood`s straight 7:30`in
It get buckwild and the blocks is still dirty
Cameras in the hall, bulletholes left in the wall
Laundromats locked up, floods in the building
The front drain is stopped up, I`ve been in the hood
Ever since my pain popped up, but just in case
One of ya`ll niggas forgot, look at your head nigga
What`s that little red dot? Got ya!
[Chorus 2X]
[Outro: Cappadonna]
Give me the bread, heavy on the cheese
Uh... straight like that
Population Click! What`s the deal
FMF, PGL, Osama Island
All my niggas in Crimestock, Sing-Sing, what`s the deal?
Far Rock` posse, Queens, Brooklyn, P-Lon
That`s my word... dance with this!
Get your guns together... takin` pictures..
