Yesterdays Rising - Ghetto Classics lyrics
War, we at war, we at war, we at war, we at-- 
 Gimme my rifle, gimme my rifle, gimme my rifle, gimme my rifle 
 Lets get this motherfucker back crunk 
 This is gonna be me and my niggas 
 Holdin triggers in our back bump 
 To take back what we once had 
 We don't give a damn about the enemies 
 Send they out to baghdad 
 They put a nigga on the frontline 
 But when it come to gettin ahead 
 They put ya way behind 
 And they supports in minimum wage 
 They don't give a choice to niggas 
 They thinkin we still slaves 
 Every nigga's got some thug in him 
 Every nigga's got some love in him 
 Every nigga's got a grudge in him 
 Every nigga's got a mug in him 
 And every nigga busts a slug in him 
 Now like a cat, bitch, we'll skin em 
 Yall niggas aint holdin my venom, check yourself 
 I'ma drop your ass off, bitch 
 As soon as i loosen my motherfuckin belt, ah 
 [Hook:]
 1 for the money, 2 for the thugs 
 3 for the projects, 4 for the love 
 Y'all gimme my rifle, we moving by bus 
 And if ya moving too fast they'll get ya caught up like 
 Ooh, them ghetto classics (ghetto), ghetto classics (ghetto) 
 Ghetto classics (ghetto), ghetto classics 
 Time for us to find just a little piece of mind, talkin bout 
 Them ghetto classics (ghetto), ghetto classics 
 We just black people gone and lost our mind 
 We just really trying to draw the line 
 Before it left our eyes 
 Before we get left behind 
 Let me tell you something about hard times Yesterdays Rising - Ghetto Classics - http://motolyrics.com/yesterdays-rising/ghetto-classics-lyrics.html
 Before we used to walk 
 Before we had life in the dry 
 And 911 wasn't known outside 
 We didn't know how to read 
 We didn't know how to write 
 All we did was sing all day and all night 
 Then when they let us start learning 
 You all lose y'all mind 
 And y'all forgot about the earlier times 
 When Martin Luther King had a dream 
 That one day we'd walk together 
 We really need to get it together 
 Kids stay in school 
 Learn all you can 
 Graduate, go to college, get knowledge 
 Then we shall overcome, yes we can, we 
 In the urge of faith we can demand it, for real 
[Hook]
 Hup, 2, 3, 4 
 What the hell are we fighting for? 
 Passing off 
 Relationship's done what spore 
 That's why they got the door 
 More time, hoot hoot 
 Aim aim, shoot shoot 
 Aint nothing but the young kids they recruit 
 Its a wonder they don't come home in they suit 
 I took away some time 
 Thinkin how i could, should, would be 
 If everybody in the world was free 
 No crime nobody doing wrong 
 Everybody getting along 
 But when i step into reality 
 This world is sore 
 And that's why we at war 
 Killin ourselves over bullshit 
 That we valued more than life 
 Y'all people better to get right, cause...
