[Verse 1: Psy, Westside] See, this city that we living in It makes me hard to love her My black brothers drop out of the 10th Grade get a gun and shoot each other Tell me how I make it in a city Where they live to die Since 15 they wasn't taught We live in a city that's bred in violence Adolescent, look up How can I look up if I don't know better? Scheming trying to make it in life Needed money started selling that white Oh, my Lord, How did I get caught up In the situation I'm in I promise, Lord, only took one hit Now it seems like I'm sprung on the sh** Habits turn magic with sound Excuses be holding you down Half of my thoughts I regret it Half of my people indebted Money the root of all evil Backstabbing mashing your people Tell me how angels don't cry Boulders on shoulders won't lie Holding you closer my five Exposing my knowledge and time Look at the daughters that cry They turn into women that fly Leading the blind and misguided Hope that you find it in time Leading the blind and misguided Hope that you find it in time [Verse 2: Da Grym Reefer] I'm from the belly of the east Where you won't find a damn thing peace When you're struggling to pay the lease You do the most but get the least Cause these streets They teach that you can't eat Without no heat So we preach You come short on my money Put you six feet deep And f** police Cause it ain't me They serve and protect Oh heck! Go check! Those negroes so suspect... Description Not to mention We came in chains and whipped So now we murder one another Over chains and whips Cause when it rains it pours And when it leaks it drips And when the storm has pa**ed You all abandon ship Because the gra** looked greener You thought the water was cleaner (But no) The freedom is raining Jim Crow And you didn't even know.... [Bridge: Psy, Westside] This city was built by trains This city is full of snakes This history hard to take Every street was built by slaves Don't talk to her In a city full of pain I know it feels strange When they up them thangs Nothing remains [Hook: Psy, Westside] Jackson done changed Jackson done changed The problems and the issues that you have And you can't talk to her Jackson done changed Jackson done changed The problems and the issues that you have And you can't talk to her [Repeated from Bridge]
