taskforce - yesterdays hellhole lyrics

[verse 1 + chester p]
they’re talkin’ like they’ve lived my life
done the things i’ve done
felt the pain i can’t leave behind
‘cus as a kid i lost my innocence young
i was 9 when i started doin’ all the things i shouldn’ta done
i was 9 when i breathed the first smoke in my lungs
i was 9 when i got forced to break into drums
i was 9 when i realised we’re livin’ on crumbs
at school we just cuss and didn’t learn none
aged 12 i was playin’ in the slums with a junkie
watchin’ him fill up his arm with suttin’ f+ckery
aged 13 i was out on a earner
or walkin’ train tracks while my friends did burners
at 15 i was sellin’ hash in them slim bags
some cat came for my stash i got kidnapped
i was just a shook lil boy when i think back
aged 17 i was livin’ outta tin cans
drinkin’ like george best
venomous to policemen
chest like a pigeons
rest with a big gang
some friends fell to the fate of a cold blade
some friends fell to the ways of old cocaine
it’s a slow train, old nick smilin’
souls in the mix where we just keep tryin’
aged 27 and i’m still here tryin’
with far more scars and far more science
[hook]
yo my heart aches deep because we can’t save the world
is life in a jail like, life in a cell block (lights out!)
coppers who shot without a warning (we in a h+llhole!)
no it’s a new day dawning
my heart aches deep because we can’t save the world
is life in a jail like, life in a cell block (lights out!)
coppers who shot without a warning

[verse 2 + farma g]
i always wondered what my life’s worth
and crash landing on the streets stir the feelings of beef
that’s why i stay hurt
‘cus as a kid i had a lot of fun
but nowadays i walk around with the knowledge that i’m on the run
thirteen saw me losing my faith
‘cus my parents never told me there’d be so much hate
and my world caved in
as my childhood left me
thirteen years fade away as a memory
i cried “don’t leave me, the future’s too scary
the kids are too hard, i want my toy cars”
but the scars were inflicted
from sh+t i would witness
l!cks i would take ‘cus it’s survival of the fittest
so i grew with an attitude
forgot love as a youth
i walked around with tools i knew i wouldn’t use
i saw my old friend stabbed but we never knew
how much damage a steel blade can really do
so we learnt from the street burns
burned ‘cus the streets lessons learnt the hard way
it always burns
in my heart i’m gonna pray for the kids
‘cus there’s guns in the playground
and drugs on the high street
it takes the pick of the bunch to survive the crunch
i pray now and tomorrow that i survive the munch
and all we wish is for a brand new day
in a place where the kids grow up with no pain
[hook]
yo my heart aches deep because we can’t save the world
is life in a jail like, life in a cell block (lights out!)
coppers who shot without a warning (we in a h+llhole!)
no it’s a new day dawning
my heart aches deep because we can’t save the world
is life in a jail like, life in a cell block (lights out!)
coppers who shot without a warning (we in a h+llhole!)
no it’s a new day dawning
