toronzo cannon – the pain around me lyrics
[verse 1]
six kids on the corner up to no d-mn good
that’s six broken homes strugglin’ in my neighborhood
you got liquor stores everywhere on my side of town
i don’t want my kids to go outside, ‘cause the thugs are hanging around
[chorus]
don’t get me wrong, i don’t want to sing this song
about the pain around me, lord, but this is what i see, what i see
[verse 2]
check it out
you got the preacher man in the church giving folks false hope
you never see a politician around unless they want your vote
women walking around with skirts so, so, so tight
looking in cars as they go by saying, “you want some fun tonight?”
[chorus]
don’t get me wrong, i don’t want to sing this song, no, no
about the pain around me, lord, hey, but this is what i see, what i see, hey
[solo: 25 measures]
[verse 3]
shooting and k!lling’ i’m living in a war zone
see, police they never come around, so i’m out here on my own
i’m just an honest working man trying to do right and feed my family
when i go to work got to carry a piece, lord, for extra security
[chorus]
don’t get me wrong, i don’t want to sing this song
about the pain around me, lord, but this is what i see, what i see, yeah, yeah, yeah
but this is what i see
