Kano - Fightin' The Nation lyrics

Police and thieves in the street Fightin the nation with their Guns and ammunition Police and thieves in the street Fightin the nation with their Guns and ammunition Guns and ammunition Guns and ammunition Late night roam the street like a fox on the road 16, experiment a little h**n and coke Room full of coke cans syringes Poster over the hole where po-po kicked the door off the hinges 6 kids all living in a flat no jobs no dough every dealer on his back Mums on her own drunk when she comes home Days on end sleeps out and don't phone Daddy don't exist such a cliche these days So he looks up to the G's, theives Whatever he makes G's take and call it a clean slate Until one day he said he had a job for him, paid And said "all you have to do is wait Outside 1 crib and tell me when the breader comes in And who the breaders with and if the sh** goes to plan you can earn a gib That's what I call quick dough but what he didn't know that the G was a snitch And the breaders in the crib were selling guns and cutting bricks And he just phoned the G when the breader rolled in and told him He with about 5 man and 1 chick and next thing you know there's armed police at the crib Sirens so loud he's tryna read the fed's lips And what sounds like "put your hands behind your head" Was actually "don't f**ing move and we won't have to shoot" Police and thieves in the street Fightin the nation with their Guns and ammunition Police and thieves in the street Fightin the nation with their Guns and ammunition Guns and ammunition Guns and ammunition Look how many youths have got guns on 'em, bustin' 'em Eyes on the back of their heads, can't see infront of them. Enough of 'em, it's time to f** with 'em Yeah I got 99 problems and London's one of 'em Youths have lost lives from Stratford to Moss Side And all they care about is if they lost stripes I ain't no preacher MC, I'm feeling MC's, But dig a little a deeper like dynamite And I know I say some bullsh** in moments of anger, And it's not cool for the fan club Just the other day we we're up late discussing Iraq, Over a gla** of champagne, how f**ed is that? I ain't celebrating sh** - If I ain't using my status to make a change, I ain't ever making hits A wise man told me Kane listen, If you want to fly like an eagle you can't fly with pigeons, An eagle I am for a reason I am, where I m but how you supposed to make it out of Eastham when there's... Police and thieves in the street (and it's easy to end up in a police van when they're...) Fightin the nation with their Guns and ammunition Police and thieves in the street Fightin the nation with their Guns and ammunition Guns and ammunition Guns and ammunition Guns and ammunition Guns and ammunition Fighting the nation with their Guns and ammunition Police and theives in the street Bang bang and it ain't nothin sweet Believe, peace
