Lyrics
STRAIGHT HEAT 2 Can’t noboby hold a brother But when it comes to levies from the flood We draggin more then mud on your carpet Always one to start shit, quit stop and relax. They kick more facts then channel zero. Better question every word from your 10 O clock hero. Military occupation to liberate foreign nations. A major stretch of the imagination For my seeds to get a decent education Spending more on cellblocks then on hard backs. But every four they pass the buck to another who don’t give a fuck. How my people be living. Land of the free but some conditions are closer to third world Oh girl got it bad, cuz she got two youngens and caught in a cycle of abuse, while government misuses funds she stuck between a rock and hard place and She’s getting treated like criminal Cause all she wanted was to be loved, But when push comes to shove he got to stepping And we all got problems, and I ain’t one to be the judge one by no means but we can’t be acting like we don’t know what be happening Cuz this kids grow up, and I ain’t actin’ like nothing ever fucked my flow up, (and you know that’s real, come on, come with me, lets go) Chuck d said rap is the ghettos CNN So I bust this like the reservation KTNN Headlines like the front page of the Navajo times Or the Tutuveni, but don’t take it from me look out your window. Now when did it become cool not to care about things plaguing our communities, young men acting like they G’d up but they still hanging on they momma’s titties. Thinking they got strips cuz they bought a T-shirt with logo’s of Makeveli. Don’t get it twisted I ain’t advocating no nonsense But brothers done taken slugs and knives to the belly even before they out of puberty and the reservation wasn’t ready for the epidemic. See those that pay the cost take the most losses to gain in experience. Now we in long periods of silence cause we done loss another to senseless violence in both the Rock Towns, Fort Defiance, San Carlos, Pine Ridge, Salt River, Warm Springs, Burque and Puyallup. And if you didn’t know the reservations are just as bad as inner city ghettos but some still won’t acknowledge the facts. Wanting everything all pretty smelling like rose petals. They be tripping on appearances to be fresh dipped wanting respect from men that ain’t giving it. Yet they quick to turn they backs on kinfolk, I can understand better then anyone bout no longer wanting to be broke and to each his own. And again they got it twisted cuz its about what we spitting from our lips that makes it all worth it cuz is you perfect to never gotta dirt under your finger tips. Cause we ain’t even in the clear yet so do we gotta pose the question While we sit by and ignore the youth and their cries for help How they suppose to know how to step into the game when we don’t show them how to play the hand they were dealt. Why our people gotta be stressing Cause important lessons got lost in the course of oppression To manifest our destinies, and all we knowing that but still that ain’t no excuse No that ain’t no excuse…
