I look around and this is all I see
Violence, ignorance, and poverty
Everyone is always looking our for themselves
They don't give a shit about anybody else
Hookers and dealers parading the streets
Gangs acting like they own everything
This was life growing up
Have things got better or just more fucked up

Nothing is ever going to change
It's just some vicious cycle
It's going to stay the same
There's nothing really that I can do
Just try to life day by day
I gotta get through!
