GZA -Victim

Just another victim of the

Victim of the ghetto

Just another victim

That's how it goes ooh

Heavy foot traffic jam the hallway all day

Adolescence workin for small pay

World so little

He could never leave his block

His home full of riddle

So he always need his glock

He coast with his eye open

Keep his metal smokin

Young wasted minds

Fiendin on dimes cokin

Forgot kids quick to break rules

And known to make fools

Out of many down the streets be more safe than school

There's no diploma

That can break him from the coma

A bloody war in the country

The youth hungry

On the corner

Hyenas amongst me

Yabbin bout the stories

They be hearin always swearin

Can't even spell the sh*t that he be wearin

Caught up in the silk web of material

Superficial stains ya brain tissue

That's the issue

The young is lost at their own cost dreamin

Screamin how we never hold positions

That's the meanin

Brothers of murder victims share the same grief

The elderly shake their head in disbelief

And no relief came till I aimed

And blast one shot and left my name

The GZA

Just another victim of the

Victim of the ghetto

Just another victim

That's how it goes ooh

My residence is a city where army veterans smoke rocks

On torn down blocks

Dr*g spots set out their shops

And cops watch

Innocent ni**az roam in flocks

Romanism in tops

Papers and knots

Churches and liquor stores on every corner plot

To get money not

Some funny ni**az act like they could pop glocks and those who can't cop

Sisters givin up a**a lot

Brothers givin up cash a lot

They be strugglin to become someone because their parents not

Just another victim of the ghetto

Where lost minds settle

When the devil uncivils society and die free

With double w followed by JD around the necks

And wrists the god is now a dog

The earth is called a b**ch

And all my people wish to get rich in this wilderness

To push a lexus

Ice on everythin from rings and braclets to the necklaces

Children molested within these pest infested buildins

Thieves uneducated in these schools

Paint on the ceilins

Peelin off

But all I see is lost black babies callin

Please somebody save me

Please somebody save me

Just another victim of the

Victim of the ghetto

Just another victim

That's how it goes ooh

Just another victim of the

Victim of the ghetto

Just another victim

That's how it goes ooh

Just another

Just another

Victim of the ghetto
