kofi stone - blame my environment lyrics

[intro: julie london & kofi stone]
i give him all my love, that′s all i do (yeah, yeah)
i give him all my love, (yo) that’s all i do

[verse 1]
my sanity′s worth more
you know there’s more important things then fighting a turf war
all you know is pain now you’re thinking the worst thoughts
there′s gotta be a reason we was up on this earth for
had to find the purpose now i′m spitting this verse for
the ones that were forgotten got a pick of the worst draw
what really hurts more, is n0body was doing a thing
they closed the youth clubs, we should let the riots begin
dying in sin
the love started dying in him
cause all thе bad that was around was inviting him in
society thinks, f+ck what society thinks
he’s on his own up in thе streets he could die if he blinks
getting tested out the ends they was hoping he folds
think they got him by the park it was next to the goals
tryna send him to the stars or the devils he knows
got you cornered tell me where can you go, yo

[chorus]
streets cold so you know we gotta roll with the heat
don′t blame me
move along there ain’t nothing to see
don′t blame me
blame my environment
you wanna change
then change my environment
move along there ain’t nothing to see
there′s nothing to see (word, word)
[verse 2]
brothers from the hood are so afraid
cause everyday’s another day that you can pass away
seen so many graves that it doesn’t even faze
had to come of age, way before you come of age
it′s scary how the youngers going crazy
fifteen dead in the street that′s a baby
no father figure so the streets had to raise me
taught me how to get what’s mine
then it paid me
i need protection i was rolling with a piece
that′s just what you do when you was coming from the streets
i don’t deserve to feel the pressure and the grief
you get what you deserve, what you sow is what you reap
my mind distorted by the pressure and the trauma
chased me in the blocks saw lift was out order
so i took the stairs knowing that it wasn′t shorter
but there was someone waiting round the corner, yo

[chorus]
streets cold so you know we gotta roll with the heat
don’t blame me
move along there ain′t nothing to see
don’t blame me
blame my environment
you wanna change
then change my environment
move along there ain’t nothing to see
there′s nothing to see
[verse 3]
you see they wanna see my rap about guns
but guns k!ll people
imma say it′s good over evil
some brothers live a movie, but they never see the sequel
the worlds imbalanced
everybody wasn’t equal
caught him in the car park waiting on his own
brothers full of pride
so what was the result
brother took a life lost a brother to the road
rest in peace to everyone that never made it home
anyone can be a cold k!ller in the moment
that don′t mean you tough though
i’m sending my condolence
to anyone that′s ever had to make it through the pain
and it’s all good saying something gotta change
i ain′t even saying that i’m holier than thou
cause i had a couple fights
and i ain’t really proud
but this is for my people that never made it out
and if the war was water
then i wish there was a drought
stone signing out
