jahaziel - in my neighbourhood lyrics

v.1
everyday another gun gets manufactured
another man’s blasted and some blame gangster rappers
i ain’t tryna say gangster rap’s the problem
but it don’t solve them, it just keeps them revolving
and nothing won’t change lest we change
if you wanna see change then be changed
rearrange your thought pattern towards action
coz if we do nothing then nothing’s what’s gonna happen
as for this thing we call rapping
time to use it in its true power
and give the youth power
death and life is found in the power of the tongue
and it’s not in the barrel of a gun
i’m shocked at how it has become
every coward got a gun
and they letting shots shower in the slum
young soldiers blamed for gun culture
they the ones dying
who’s flying them guns over?

v.2
i’m waving a white flag
tryna make somebody aware
and be like dag how did we get here?
coz by this time next year another young buck loses their chance to breathe fresh air
that’s why i make tracks tryna catch your attention
praying that my raps don’t fall on deaf ears
for sure the real cure is prevention
and we don’t need to see another mother shed tears
how many funerals do we need?
how many families grieve and crying their son was too young to leave them?
and some claim it’s a catch+22
get jacked by a crew or pack a 22
and that’s exactly what many do
that’s why so many of our youth never see 22
now what we gonna do about it?
as for me i’ma stand up on the roof and shout it
i’ma tell the truth about it
v.3
see the words that i speak are sincere
it’s death that men fear
i know that life, i’ve been there
if it wasn’t for the fact god filled me
i’d probably still be sticking up shops or robbing jewellery
l!cking shots at the judge and jury
coz they don’t understand why a brother got a gun in his hand
i’m a young man confined by limited chances
in a system that’s run by political gangsters
i see their gangster tactics
they got us paying taxes like it’s a protection racket
still i’m the one who gets labelled as the thug they hate for distributing them drugs they make
man i thought that is was much too late
i gone too far, but god’s love was just too great
a true faith from the bible pages
and truth loosed my mind out of higher cages
