In the beginning there was
confrontations in these streets
'Cause these police beat us
Young brothers born to fail, skippin' bail,
bitches was hatin' 'cause our skin was too dark?
Handed down his sentence,
A 25- to- life nigga never
That's how they do it to us,
it seem we caught in between
wastin' away for what he did in his teens
situation on these streets is critical
Everybody chasin' dough, if them ain't your folks,
If we ridin', then let's ride, do- or- die,
But tell me the reason for lost lives
Could it be we all caught up in a
Fallin' through the cracks,
blinded by the lies we given
Seen these g's on these streets
It seem too many of us born to die
But life goes on, and on situation in time
How many lost souls molded
From the bay in california to
Can't be no justice without no peace,
No matter what they say or do, I ain't
I won't doubt ya baby, won't
And no matter I'ma keep it true,
and together we gon' make it through
ain't livin' without ya baby
A ruthless cycle of thugs, coppers, drugs,
heliocopters, blood, spitting choppers, slugs
Who could stop to love this lifestyle
I'm lacin' adolescents with lessons no
I'm chasin', my competitors,
Conversation keep these cowards
Forget versache- watchy cartier
playas, I'm still the same
But I can't condone the phony
'cause I'm prone to be me
Never forgettin' where you came from,
Now keep on strivin' and survivin'
don't let life get down on you
Forget these haters that betray
mistakin' kindness for a fool
Keep your head up, don't get fed
up, keep on doin' what you do
For all true players in this game of
life you got to know the rules, true
No matter what they say or
do, I ain't never givin' up on you
And no matter I'ma keep it true,
and together we gon' make it through
ain't livin' without ya baby
No matter what they say or do,
I ain't never givin' up on you
And no matter I'ma keep it true, and
together we gon' make it through
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Now that's one too many times more than
three had to die 45's got to spittin
6:30 was the time, 7 years gone by, 8 of
9 times outta 10 somebody bleedin'
Tell me what's the reason? trial
These juveniles in wild life
Went from kids to killas, fun lovin'
We self- destructin' in this rush
Everybody in this world gone crazy
See money and murder be the
measure of a man everyday
break bustas for how they livin
'Cause some takin' better care of
their cars then of their kids
And it still seem we caught up
Fallin' through the cracks,
blinded by the lies we given
Seen these g's on these streets
It seem too many of us born to die
No matter what they say or do, I ain't
I won't doubt ya baby, won't
And no matter I'ma keep it true, and together
No matter what they say or do,
I ain't never givin' up on you
And no matter I'ma keep it true,
and together we gon' make it through
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
