sellassie – fast life lyrics
fast life
growing up as a ghetto experiment
got off the grey hound bus with only 30 cents in my pocket
caught the 14 mission to the top of the hill daly city
smoked the last of my doobie with my cousin to come get me
no mo’ abuse like janet i’m in control
like billy cid, god bless the child that holds his own
all alone in these k!lling fields they call the streets
surrounded by weeds but i was the rose that grew from the concrete
my fees, my transportation for many years
requiring displeasurement for all my childhood peers
some shed tears when i crying oceans filled with pain
black rain
like the homie at the corner told me to say
4.9 caddie, foot to the pedal i’m movin’ fast
duck and dodge the police, an undercover task
-ss-ssination on the indigenous people the american way
like it’s 100 or mo’ brothers dead where i stay
come out and play but bring your jacket cause my ghetto’s cold
21 just gave ’em five years parole
90% percent of the time hood crimes black on black
hate guns, but this jealousy has got me strapped
watch my back from the illuminati’s foot soldiers
drug dealers’, slangin’ all night, zips and quotas
never ‘mazed that the hate in the hearts of people
i stay weary of the hearts of men cause most men are born evil
i can’t fake it i gotta make it i’m a revolutionary rebel
put my life on the line and warn us poor people about the devil
the last forty years turned blacks into n-ggas
we put importance on clothes, cars, money and pullin’ triggas
uncle sam made us k!ll us
2.2 made us dealas
ghetto streets made us villains
heart disease from the chitlins
and beef, cavities in yo’ t–th
from no dental care, no health care
so sad society don’t care
evolution people shootin’, people shootin’, uh
brides in the streets lootin’, lootin’, uh
death penalty, executions, executions
but peace and love’s the solution, uh, uh
write to the cause the government, government
they tax the poor people payin’ rent, payin’ rent
young brotha died heaven sent
on the streets his whole life was spent
propaganda turns your mind to mush
takes your mind off tha power of us, power of us
keeps your focus on the god we trust, god we trust
greed and power, the systemless, systemless
grab the full five, homicide, homicide
self defense, so it’s justified, justified
instead of ten, they gettin’ me 25, 25
appeal denied, so i’m doin’ life, doin’ life
