Текст песни Neighborhood Watch - Dilated Peoples

The Neighborhood Watch
Is jewels and spots
It′s mine and yours
Let's guard the block
This ain′t the cops
It's the Neighborhood Watch
It's mine and yours
When I was young
The neighborhood watched
Us get down on a
Cardboard box
In vacant lots
Well down on Venice Beach,
You had to jet before dark
The freaks come out at night
To spark
Write with my right
Bat with my left hand
Hearing of a blind cat
Vision of a deaf man
Breathe through my eyelids
My flow keeps my teeth white
Half B-boy, half Z-boy
The street lights watch
The Neighborhood Watch
It is jewels and spots
It′s mine and yours
Let′s guard the block
This ain't the cops
It′s the neighborhood watch
It's mine and yours
Let′s guard the block
Watch your colours and
Watch your slang
Watch how your fingers
Twist and change
A lot of cats out here
Ain't playin′
A lot of cats here still
Gang bang
Me? I don't bang
I rock the good rhymes
The whole scenery reminding me
I should rhyme
And not floss but
Invest in mine
And hope it never comes
To the best in nine
But hey, the Neighborhood Watch
Guard the block
Watch for criminals
And watch for cops
It ain't gon′ stop
It′s the Neighborhood Watch
Watch for criminals and
Watch for cops
Neighborhood Watch
Neighborhood Watch
Neighborhood Watch
Neighborhood Watch
Protect your own
Protect your home
Respect the hustle
And set the tone
Entertain but drop
Gems mostly
Like, don't covet your neighbour
But watch him closely
Closed circuit
Checking the street
Between blessing the beat
And stressing to eat
Between my first breath
And resting in peace
Between keeping the peace
And arresting police
The eyes have it
Once again it′s your Peoples
Blacked out your tinted windows?
We still see you
The streets is breathing
The streets is watching
The streets start trends
And end them
Be cautious
Black Panthers
Brown Berets
We watched the Watchers
And found a way
I see it all like a
Fly on the wall
And that's real game
So keep your eye on the ball
The neighborhood watch
It is jewels and spots
It′s mine and yours
Let's guard the block
This ain′t the cops
It's the Neighborhood Watch
It's mine and yours
Let′s guard the block
The Neighborhood Watch
Guard the block
Watch for criminals
And watch for cops
It ain′t gon' stop
It′s the Neighborhood Watch
Watch for criminals
And watch for cops
The Neighborhood Watch
The Neighborhood Watch
The Neighborhood Watch
The Neighborhood Watch
The Neighborhood Watch
The Neighborhood Watch
The Neighborhood Watch
