The streets are now filled with kids,
who dream big but the city shreds their dreams to bits.
It's a fight for survival, a fight to kill the rival.
It's the live of the poor, the live of the homicidal.
And the rich sit idle while everyone on the streets
is unknowingly their disciple.
The gangs fight each other, one dead after another,
for the money they are willing to kill their own brother.
But it's not only for the cash, some will take a life to make a man.
Is it worth it do you want that kind of fame?
The streets are corrupted by flame.
It's them, you should put your aim at them.
[Chorus]
A life for a life, what is it worth?
Is it for the rich to pave on top of the blood?
The G's have been fed a lie throughout their whole lives,
that if they take to arms they should expect demise.
The rich never televise what's happening outside,
cuz hide inside, while the poor fight and they don't act
despite having the power to turn the tides.
They just sit at the top looking down,
and they don't laugh at all,
but instead they yawn and maybe frown,
with stone faces beneath their crowns they're sacrificing pawns.
And it's like this, you're either with the rich or
you're struggling on the streets, where the kids dream big,
but the city shreds their dreams to bits.
[Chorus]
You've been shot.
The streets are now filled with kids,
who dream big but the city shreds their dreams to bits.
It's a fight for survival, a fight to kill the rival.
It's the live of the poor, the live of the homicidal.
And the rich sit idle while everyone on the streets
is unknowingly their disciple.
The gangs fight each other, one dead after another,
for the money they are willing to kill their own brother.
But it's not only for the cash, some will take a life to make a man.
Is it worth it do you want that kind of fame?
It's worthless.
