You may be any race or color, but it don’t matter;
\nIf you grow up in the slums, you could get splattered.
\nAll over someone’s wall, in the bedroom,
\nIn the bathroom, or the hall.<\/p>\n

You told your mother to be proud,
\nAnd you’re still messing with the wrong crowd.
\nFor what and for why;
\nWho really knows, guy?<\/p>\n

You said, “I’m goin’ ta get educated,
\nget outta this place and get a job.” Yet nothin’s related.
\nAt 10th grade you quit school;
\nAll your friends thought you were cool.<\/p>\n

Doin’ drugs, Messin’ wit thugs;
\nIt just don’t click, did ya wanna die?
\nYou made the mistake;
\nYet your family loses.<\/p>\n
