Reef - Good Bye lyrics

We live in a world Where a man is judged by the color of his skin We can't win Not the content of his character They scared of you 22 million black in America You better stand your area 75 percent population of the prison system n***as listen n***as listen n***as listen Outlawz on a mission Verse 1: Napoleon So more gun shots By some young n***as And now the media consider y'all some dumb n***as And where you at I done came from that So I know what's on your mind when you're co*king your nine back Busting your bullets at them n***as on the corner And you aim 7 5 till your victim is a goner But it's more than life And I don't blame you Matter of fact I blame your parents for the sh** you gonna do There's a lot of n***as under ten getting shot by the nine 8 of them died and left 7 of them crying For the 5th and 6th time I'm trying to tell you dog You done pulled through n***a I know that's where he are And the third second and first is when the welfare kicks in We joined by nothing Cause your ??? Drinking Buying crack Go for d** again And it make you want to go and bust your gat again But if you got a problem grab a pen Write a letter And send it to the Outlawz We'll try to make it better My young soldier You ain't no dumb soldier Keep your mind on your dream And you a pro soldier Verse 2: Young noble Hey yo I spit, rip for Pac and Yak I love y'all both That's why I rap with a grudge and keep my enemies close Memories float Nothing else to do but smoke Now I'm numb with a lump in my throat I'm scoffed up Constipated with pain Hating the rain We all get wet And pretty much when you close to d**h I think you live by the gun You die by the judge And if my girl have a son I'ma raise him better than I was A little time does justice to the heart You should ask your little boy why he rushing to the park Everyday after school You wonder why he love there? They got guns d** and plenty of thugs there No care That's why I speak on sh** To you parents out there Don't sleep on sh** Raise your kids Come on you made the kids We got kids k**ing kids Doing major bids Damn Chorus: I never really got a chance to say good-bye I hope you're thankful you lived your life And nothing keeps that before your eyes I never really got a chance to say good-bye And even though you're gone You're always on my mind I never really got a chance to say goodbye Verse 3: Edi To all my youngsters out there Trying to burn something Will you pay attention a minute You might learn something Cause look All they want to do is lock you up and make some dough off you And when your a** finally die They'll find a hole for you I know it ain't no love It seem cold to you But yous a soldier Got to keep your goals close to you Cause 25 with an L ain't closer junior Now in society You're labeled as a loser junior 2 times at that So close to your 3rd Only 22 now what the f** you gonna do Convicted felons They don't get no work We all know that Now you forced to draw back You seen the cycle They don't call it the system for nothing Systematic ways to get you to your grave But you heard it before You ain't gonna listen to Edi You gonna have to go through it But please believe me Ain't no glory in pain A soldier story in vain You n***as gobbled by the game Ain't no glory in pain A soldier story in vain You n***as gobbled up by the mutha f**in game Verse 4: Kastro It's a long long dark road out of hell I've been there I can tell you the story well Most don't make it 10 out of 12 And the 2 left fighting themselves We sit in desperate need Searching for a cure Us youngsters indeed We deserve much more It's war Cause we don't get along with each other God damn We need to get it together For real Chorus Verse 5: Napoleon I got 50 shots for every ??? These pigs is more crooked than some snakes on my block They gave him a choice He had to ride or die Since bullets don't die Oz can you tell me how he died Stay ahead of your game Young star Grow eyes Stay away from them haters Also 1 time I respect the game I'm real serious with mine It's like they lost Playing on furious with mine [Edi talking] Uh So serious You know It's all about will and how strong you are If you can stand it Stand the pressure and stay strong youngsters Move up Chorus
