Victim Lyrics

Just another victim of the, victim of the ghetto
Just another victim, that's how it goes

Heavy foot traffic jam, the hallway all day
Adolescence workin' for small pay
World so little, he could never leave his block
His home full of riddle, so he always need his glock

He coast with his eye open, keep his metal smokin'
Young wasted minds, fiendin' on dimes, cokin'
Forgot kids, quick to break rules, and known to make fools
Out of many, down the streets be more safe than school

There's no diploma, that can break him from the coma
A bloody war in the country, the youth hungry
On the corner, hyenas amongst me
Yabbin' 'bout the stories, they be hearin', always swearin'

Can't even spell the shit that he be wearin'
Caught up in the silk web of material
Superficial stains ya brain tissue, that's the issue
The young is lost at their own cost, dreamin'

Screamin' how we never hold positions, that's the meanin'
Brothers of murder victims share the same grief
The elderly shake their head in disbelief and no relief came till I aimed
And blast one shot and left my name, the GZA

Just another victim of the, victim of the ghetto
Just another victim, that's how it goes

My residence is a city where army veterans smoke rocksGenius - Victim - http://motolyrics.com/genius/victim-lyrics.html

On torn down blocks, drug spots set out their shops
And cops watch, innocent niggaz roam in flocks
Romanism in tops, papers and knots

Churches and liquor stores on every corner, plot
To get money not some funny niggaz act like they could
Pop glocks and those who can't cop
Sisters givin' up ass a lot, brothers givin' up cash a lot

They be strugglin' to become someone because their parents not
Just another victim of the ghetto, where lost minds settle
When the devil uncivils society and die free
With double 'W' followed by J-D around the necks

And wrists the God is now a dog, the earth is called a bitch
And all my people wish to get rich in this wilderness
To push a Lexus, ice on everythin'
From rings and bracelets to the necklaces

Children molested within these pest infested buildin's
Thieves uneducated in these schools, paint on the ceilin's
Peelin' off, but all I see is lost black babies callin'
"Please somebody save me, please somebody save me"

Just another victim of the, victim of the ghetto
Just another victim, that's how it goes

Just another victim of the, victim of the ghetto
Just another victim, that's how it goes

Just another, just another, victim of the ghetto
