Lyrics

There's something happening out here, man
You know something, man? I know something that you don't know
That's right, Jack
The man is clear in his mind
But his soul is empty
He likes you 'cause you're still alive
He's got plans for you
We walk this life, we don't run from it
So we dwell amongst the hunted
Under the bright light, the most wanted
Fuck right, honest, we remain strongest
Through it all, we still the number one target
We walk this life, we don't run from it
So we dwell amongst the hunted
Under the bright light, the most wanted
Fuck right, honest, we remain strongest
Through it all, we still the number one target
These are the demons in us, we are not natural born sinners
It's the grief you give us, it's enough not to trust
Those running the law, so we coming for y'all
Never running, it's a call of duty, what you doing?
Handcuff and shoot me? Excuse me if I shoot you first
You cursed me with the life expectancy of twenty-threes
You can see I missed it and I'm still optimistic
I'm a soldier that's sadistic with a different way of thinking
Back to 1975, my first day alive
I didn't know that I was destined to die
I learned quick and in time realized these streets are hard to survive
There's a thin line within crime and those of my kind
You can't rewind life, so every step I take gotta be right
Dodging time from the pigs and bullets from these street fights
It's the roll of the dice
Every time I take a step out at night
I gamble and my soul is the price
We walk this life, we don't run from it
So we dwell amongst the hunted
Under the bright light, the most wanted
Fuck right, honest, we remain strongest
Through it all, we still the number one target
We walk this life, we don't run from it
So we dwell amongst the hunted
Under the bright light, the most wanted
Fuck right, honest, we remain strongest
Through it all, we still the number one target
I mean, what are they gonna say, man, when he's gone, huh?
'Cause he dies when it dies, man
When it dies, he dies
What are they gonna say about him?
What, they gonna say he was a kind man?
He was a wise man?
He had plans? He had wisdom?
Bullshit, man
Am I gonna be the one that's gonna set them straight?
We navigate through life, gun and knife hidden in garments
Come to realize me and the cops have nothing in common
So we warring on the street, a lot of bodies are falling
You know death is hard to avoid when the Lord is calling
Prayers don't keep bullets from digging your skin layers
Pay us no respect, we're quick to pull triggers and blind stares
We're targets in the crosshairs, hoodlums on the run from the gun
We're paranoid and shooting first when they come
To get the number one target like the star shit we ended
End of defendants, sentenced and incarcerated
It's modern day segregation through the court's injunction
The pigs the ones corrupting and we still feel like we can't function
The man can't understand the ink and needle
The haircut to zero and the culture of my people
Should be apparent why we not caring
We barely doing better than our parents
A generation that feels the desperation
We walk this life, we don't run from it
So we dwell amongst the hunted
Under the bright light, the most wanted
Fuck right, honest, we remain strongest
Through it all, we still the number one target
We walk this life, we don't run from it
So we dwell amongst the hunted
Under the bright light, the most wanted
Fuck right, honest, we remain strongest
Through it all, we still the number one target
Okay, okay, alright, big man
You wanna make some big bucks, huh?
Let's see how tough you are
You know something about cocaine?
Dígame
¿Pero qué dime o qué?
