paroles de chanson Black Hearts - Reverie

My city got problems
Mr. President, why don't you solve em
Why you choose to cause division with precision
Look, the system that's in place ain't fucken working
I've been to Ferguson
Seen people live like they ain't worth a shit
My people smoking, tweeking, codeine, percocetting
It's upsetting
So broke and hungry, antsy, bust a 2-11
Class in session
This confession gon make people hate me cuz I'm honest
My culture is addicted to the chaos, no days off
Got juvenile delinquents doing years in juvey
If only you knew the injustices and corruption
One day it's gon be in movies
How do we change the cycle
They say "don't play the victim"
Like it's easy to ignore discrimination and hide it from the children
Like they ain't gon experience it in the real world
Educate the youth and talk about reality so they could get a feel for it
Half my childhood friends doing life, locked up in the feds, or dead
So don't talk to me about equality, cuz all I see is hypocrisy
I'm tryna live my life, but I'm lost
My addictions rotate, but liquor is my new favorite
I'm tryna live my life, but I'm lost
Liquor store on every corner
How can I resist temptation?
I'm tryna live my life, but I'm lost
My big brother out there banging
And my daddy ain't around
I'm tryna live my life, but I'm lost
How can I escape when I'm trapped inside this town
I'm human, I'm hypocrisy, exist with instability
Watch yo friends, watch yo enemies
Business partners ain't friends to me
She's slanging out that pusssy
Cuz she got no other options
She's 15, in a sick dream
And aint nobody talking no sense, no rules, no curfew
No stress and no school, no parents
Abueltita can't even speak her language, broken English
Broken ego, broken dreams, a hopeless mind state
I probably woulda been friends with her back in my day
Gotta hide the pain- cuz tears, they bring shame
When rain is all you see, it's hard to get up out the game
Today I'm doin okay. Sometimes I'm suicidal
I am my own worst enemy, I am my biggest rival
I really miss you, I cried for you today
I hate hearing your name, standing over your grave
Sometimes I think I'm crazy, I know that I'm insane
You'll never understand my past, so don't speak up on my name
I'm tryna live my life, but I'm lost
My addictions rotate, but liquor is my new favorite
I'm tryna live my life, but I'm lost
Liquor store on every corner- how could I resist temptation
I'm tryna live my life, but I'm lost
My big brother out there banging and my daddy ain't around
I'm tryna live my life, but I'm lost
How can I escape when I'm trapped inside this town
