rocky "roc" vandergriff - warzone lyrics
[intro: news reporter]
this is in, uh, south central los angeles, the vicinity of 84th and vermont. once again, all streets leading into those areas are closed off now. that’s central los angeles, south central los angeles, and the area of sunland out in, uh, out in the valley…
[hook: roc]
you in a warzone, where brothers get shot down
slangin’ ‘caine, causin’ pain on a quest for the crown
k!llin’ each other just so we can get paid
i pray the lord save us, we’ve fallen astray
you in a warzone, where brothers get shot down
slangin’ ‘caine, causin’ pain on a quest for the crown
k!llin’ each other just so we can get paid
i pray the lord save us, we’ve fallen astray
[verse 1: roc]
speakin’ life to them crips and them pirus flamed up
rockin’ them paisley rags, d-ckies creased with the chucks
blazin’ that skunk, shoutin’ out “thug life!”
no remorse for the consequences of that drug life
ride or die, empty clips on yo’ rivals
bangin’ on them streets, there’s a low chance of survival
i know you only do it to get your family well off
but all that’s finna lead to is you in a cell block
locked up, probably hit with ’bout fifty
all because you went and let it sing with that semi
homie wake up, it’s time for you to re-ssess
you was made you for way more than that dope game stress
you risk gettin’ dusted when defendin’ the turf
but the real tribulation you’ve been facing since birth
‘cuz satan stay playin’ tug-of-war for your soul
time to rise up, don’t let that sucka take control
[hook: roc]
you in a warzone, where brothers get shot down
slangin’ ‘caine, causin’ pain on a quest for the crown
k!llin’ each other just so we can get paid
i pray the lord save us, we’ve fallen astray
you in a warzone, where brothers get shot down
slangin’ ‘caine, causin’ pain on a quest for the crown
k!llin’ each other just so we can get paid
i pray the lord save us, we’ve fallen astray
[verse 2: k the muss]
uh
i know i’m guilty, i still believe to be livin’ free
it’s typically a mystery, so picture me a simple fiend
to k!ll the mic like it’s meant for me when the devil sings
apparently, regretfully, i’ve sinned but lack the memory (true)
i’m cherishin’ my origin, still aware of the war we in (uh huh)
aborted kids and there’s no relent, it’s unfortunate (yup)
these opioid and methadone addicts’ll leave you stranded
don’t eat or sleep and it’s tragic, can’t imagine the madness
difficult just to fathom, be advised, no relaxin’
instagram tryna catfish, still portrayin’ a bad b-tch
some infection contracted, you wanted to be an actress (sorry)
now you’re failin’ with sadness, it’s hard to do when you’re -ssless
don’t be discouraged, just know your worth and you’ll flourish
i’m barely scratchin’ the surface, still intact with the verses
know the path isn’t certain, but feel my p-ssion is worth it
and now i’m deeply immersin’, i’m finally free, and i’m learnin’ (yup)
[hook: roc]
you in a warzone, where brothers get shot down
slangin’ ‘caine, causin’ pain on a quest for the crown
k!llin’ each other just so we can get paid
i pray the lord save us, we’ve fallen astray
you in a warzone, where brothers get shot down
slangin’ ‘caine, causin’ pain on a quest for the crown
k!llin’ each other just so we can get paid
i pray the lord save us, we’ve fallen astray
[verse 3: roc]
man the game don’t play, so quit rollin’ the dice
there’s a hole in your soul, and these streets won’t suffice
it’s all about the skrilla and these suckas actin’ wack
dudes you think will die for you ain’t scared to stab your back
pay attention, homie think about your children
and if you get wet up think about how they’d be feelin’
cuz dudes be out here dyin’ on a day to day basis
leavin’ they mamas cryin’, tears runnin’ down they faces
stay gettin’ bodied for the sake of the loot
homicide commencin’ over stupid money disputes
chasin’ after paper ain’t all it’s cracked up
these dudes on the block won’t hesitate to act up
hittin’ another lick ain’t gon’ heal all the pain
get you off of the streets, or lead you in the right lane
you ain’t got no future if you stay dealin’ hemp
you only finna end up with a slug in your temp
[hook: roc]
you in a warzone, where brothers get shot down
slangin’ ‘caine, causin’ pain on a quest for the crown
k!llin’ each other just so we can get paid
i pray the lord save us, we’ve fallen astray
you in a warzone, where brothers get shot down
slangin’ ‘caine, causin’ pain on a quest for the crown
k!llin’ each other just so we can get paid
i pray the lord save us, we’ve fallen astray
