In the City (feat. Zumbi of Zion I)

In the city
 It's always been that way
 In my city is blacks and blocks
 With avenues and street tops
 Where people struggle to sleep, Ock
 There's trouble and beef, go t rocks, yeah
 Don't let the higher power but don't reach pops
 Ain't home, momma been lone, going away
 So the children run stray
 Cannibalistic war play, it's animalistic where I stay
 The devil won't play
 And, too many contesters today-day
 The level won't stay where it's at, stay strapped
 It's the monstral recital that conquers the Bible
 By any means, see survival
 When friends turn rivals as liable for these confrontations to be homocidal
 Her dog hollers back at the sirens, the pain is so blinding
 Forgot we are diamonds
 In the city
 It's always been that way
 Ain't nothing uglier, ain't nothing prettier
 Than corner stores, whores, drugs galore
 Exploitations core, guns and gore
 I abhor each metropolis between these shores
 And then I see it, faith in humanity restored
 An act so selfless that I break out in applause
 Giving is so elvish that it must be Santa Claus
 In the city, dogs, foaming at the jaws
 That's kept the voice of justice in its claws, get the gauze
 Because it can silence the loudest man
 Whether concrete, dirt, canal or sand
 You can black top, but the back drop remains
 With the same plots repeating like famed refrains
 The stains stare at ya
 Intensity of character
 Gotta be Darwinistic, Got a propensity to bury ya
 Home of the merriest
 Land of the nefarious
 Tomorrow is the city that will carry us, prepare
 In the city
 It's always been that way
