[Intro] First you add the Drama then you add the beef plus the baby mama who is living in the streets Subtract the clothes and the shoes but add the unknown residues you'll see there's a problem A lot of social issues now add some guns to the mix subtract the real facts were k**ing our race but damn we all knew that [Verse 1] Listen as I try to be the voice of reason in this time of Depression I know times are rough we're just coming off a {Recession} but enough is enough I need to teach a social Lesson one that will stick I reckon people know what I'm talkin' bout but choose to stay tight lipped Seeing people get gunned down but, see its not snitching its a new form of the truth if you talk what you see How can people claim that you ain't true "true to what u might ask the family, blood in blood out" d**h is the only option we need to focus on the real reasons like why your kids think crime is the most logical way to live That's because its as easy as 1, 2, 3 to get in The mind state we're in when we commit sins is one I can't quiet comprehend but It's even harder for me to grasp the thought process in which a man takes the life of an innocent kid but see as humans ya I know we all make Mistakes but if we were to think before we act we would have a different outcome I guess that's why we repent because WE NEW WE WERE WRONG!! But still we let our emotions get the better of us, these landscapes in which we built is threatening us and even our minds See this ain't the type of world I wanna be living in where I gotta watch over my shoulder in fear I might become just another number etched into a statistic times are rough yea but the streets ain't different we need to all come together as people and make a difference and remember Knowledge told you in these rough times use "Addition & Subtraction" add the Positives & the Negatives subtract them
