Corner Block

Hoodlum’s hanging ‘bout the corner block
Waiting patiently all day, everyday
Chose the wrong path, no coming back
 
Users two, that have no fear
Eagle eyed and bouncing here
Payin’ for a simple shot of gear
 
Death has struck that corner block  
Legends leave, then newbies flock  
Mothers pain, worse than news from Iraq
 
Yes it haunts us, ghetto lives
Slain by bullets and kitchen knives
Never able to wed our future brides
 
Users two, just felt the fear
Eagle eyed and bouncing here
Once done, nature will expel their gear
 
Whilst playin’ in the gangland night and day
Hoping his brotherhood won’t go away
Hoping as their bodies start to swayForever searching for respect
Wanting to live, but waiting for death
Hood life, that’s all you can expect?
