City's On Fire

Burn
 My city's on fire
 Burn
 Modern day tragedy
 Crime on the rise
 Police brutality
 My reality's B-A-D
 Cuz the F-A-C-T of the matter's
 Getting sadder
 Check it
 No unity in my community
 Everyone for themselves
 That's they way it's gotta be
 Don't think twice in this false paradise
 One step ahead
 Or you'll end up dead
 Burn up, burn up
 My city's on fire
 Step the fuck back
 That flame's getting higher
 Bleed with me, bleed with me
 Bleed with me
 Forever now
 Done my time in a world fulla crime
 It's my turn to watch Babylon burn
 Bleed with me, bleed with me, bleed with me
 Now you gotta pray to god cuz it's on
 Defeat from the street
 Now I know I've been beat burning from the heat
 Hotter than the flames of hell
 Straight scorching me torchin' me
 Dirty ashtray dreams, busting up scenes
 It's everyone and everything
 The effect is direct and clean, from the peasant to the king
 No way out, this battle's more than we can handle
 The town's a slaughterhouse and we're the fucking cattle
 Soul shakedown
 Headed for a breakdown
 My town, your town
 It's about to go down, throw down
 Forget about tomorrow
 Cuz you can't pay back all the time that you borrowed
 It's too late, on streets of hate you await your fate
 I tell you brother you were gone from the gate
 Just another kid swallowed by the streets and retired
 I can smell the smoke shit my city's on fire
 We were cursed from birth, incarceration planet Earth
 Sentenced to die and smile on the face of the outcry
 Criminal-minded blinded, I'm barely getting by
 Reminded, constantly I'm nowhere that I want to be
 Cuz it's real in this battle field
 Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
 Eventually the other side
 Will catch me slippin' on the tripwire
 I can smell the smoke
 Shit, my city's on fire
 I can smell the smoke
 Shit, my city's on fire
 I can smell the smoke
