Ayo, check this dope-ass beat out
Yeah, Willie D back in the motherfuckin' house
And I got my niggas the Menace Clan on this one to help me out
And we representin' our goddamn selves
'Cause how the fuck you gonna tell me how to get to where I'm goin'
If you don't know where the fuck you goin'?
Man, that's the blind leadin' the motherfuckin' blind
I should've been a leader not a follower, a coach not a baller
I could've had progress, I could've lived with less stress
But I took it upon myself and played the card I was dealt
Thought about myself, fuck everyone else
And they said fuck me too, but it was cool like that
You see, my mission was paper chasin' and puttin' the hood on the map
Now I've done been there, done that, took one step and two back
For the life of me, I'm thinking what the fuck was I thinkin'
Should've slowed the shit sinkin', but I'm stuck with a code
Niggas wait around to see if I was gonna come up before
But I can't fold like a bitch, and it's too late to switch
I was brought up to make it, seen the chance to take it
Find a rule and break it, locate the badge and shake it
And against all odds, get the fuck outta dodge
Pop our niggas with records that the state can't file
Young, blind, and wild, an uncontrollable child in the ghetto
And I'm settlin' for more every day
And when I make up my mind, I'm gon' get back in line, but now I'm
Blind leadin' the blind
In a world of wars, I search for peace of mind
Instability for my niggas and me
This ain't the way life is supposed to be in the ghetto
It's the blind leadin' the blind
In a world of wars, I search for peace of mind
Instability for my niggas and me
This ain't the way life is supposed to be in the ghetto
I looked out my window, what did I see?
It was a crackhead nigga starin' dead at me
He said, "Can I get a motherfuckin' nickel for three?"
I told his ass to do better in his rorock swetta
He got a daughter, he ain't fed her, he'd rather get high
In his eye, I see a demon, I can hear babies screamin'
Fiendin, it's demeaning to see him
To be in the ghetto, but this is where I settle
Now what would you do with a strap in your hand?
Gangstas do what they want to, suckas do what they can
My role model sips on a 40 bottle
In his footsteps, I follow, grab the brew, and take a swallow
I've been livin' on the streets since the age of 13
'Cause I'm sick of being raised by a dope fiend, I so seen
Babies need Similac
Money that was meant for Similac was spent on crack
Now do you wanna, know why it's a liquor store on every corner
And niggas ain't the owner?
Listen, we can't afford to send our kids to school, but they got the knowledge
Spend our money with the Japs, and they send they kids to college
Now here we are, hoes, dopes, dealers, and bums
At the white man's table, still beggin' for crumbs
But it's the blind leadin' the blind
In a world of wars, I search for peace of mind
Instability for my niggas and me
This ain't the way life is supposed to be in the ghetto
It's the blind leadin' the blind
In a world of wars, I search for peace of mind
Instability for my niggas and me
This ain't the way life is supposed to be in the ghetto
Yeah
In the ghetto
Niggas shoot ball (niggas shoot the logs)
Niggas shoot the doves (niggas shoot to love)
Niggas shoot up (niggas shoot pool)
But watch out 'cause niggas shoot niggas too
So what the fuck am I to do when niggas fallin' down like flies?
And this motherfuckin' money starin' me in the eyes
And my brother sayin', "Come on in, stop buggin'"
But we done already lost three uncles and five cousins
To the streets, niggas shit deep, no room for the Maple Leafs
'Cause motherfuckers play for keeps
My road dawg got shot with a Tec
The bullet went through his face and came out his motherfuckin' neck
I want respect when I step on the field
So a nigga that killed, I gotta kill before these niggas get some bright ideas
And start thinkin' we hoes or something
So when I see that motherfuckin' nigga, nigga straight dumpin'
It's the blind leadin' the blind
In a world of wars, I search for peace of mind
Instability for my niggas and me
This ain't the way life is supposed to be in the ghetto
It's the blind leadin' the blind
In a world of wars, I search for peace of mind
Instability for my niggas and me
This ain't the way life is supposed to be in the ghetto
It's the blind leadin' the blind
In a world of wars, I search for peace of mind
Instability for my niggas and me
This ain't the way life is supposed to be in the ghetto
It's the blind leadin' the blind
In a world of wars, I search for peace of mind
Instability for my niggas and me
This ain't the way life is supposed to be-
