War

[Verse]

If the Bronx was like a war zone ( like a war zone )

It was just a feeling of hopelessness

There was crime from like the crooked politicians

Crooked cops in the early seventies

Man crime was like the major income of the Bronx

It wasn’t like you had a choice

What ever gang ran the block you had to be apart of it

You can feel the tension building up

You can see the fights across the street

You can hear them shouting at night time

The violence was everywhere

Everyone take over one of my division

Well they uh didn't quite make it and killed

Two of their guy they tried to burn down my club and

We killed two of their guys and five of their guys

Leaned up on the side you know what they told us

We going to get you baby we going to get you

And they didn't even need a killer
