War Zone Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Police on every corner, every block, every street
With the number one objective of making us obsolete
Us against them, listen, it’s a massive war
When they wanna regulate us, they just pass a law
The destruction of our young Gs being arranged
If you black or latino, you must be in a gang
You must be a thug, you must sell a whole lot of crack
You ain’t got no home-training, you don’t know how to act
So they ride on the poor folks, joking aside
They said racism is dead, man, somebody done lied
Understand you and Tommy can commit the same crime
But when you go to jail, you receive triple the time
Classroom full of ghetto kids tryna excel
But they already know how many going to jail
Had plans to succeed but they falling apart
‘cause they the ones who set it up for us to fall from the start
[Chorus]
We in the war zone
It’s gettin’ real in this war zone
No chance to fix America, it’s too far gone
Get your knowledge up, channel your anger
If we don’t come together, all of us are in danger
[Verse 2]
We searched the US government and gathered some facts
All the guns and the crack, the CIA did that
They give you the drugs just for you to sell to your brother
Then give you the guns so that you can murder each other
If you slip in this game, then you go to hell there
‘cause the last thing they give you is a long jail sentence
This route, most of us know something about
Locked the man up, now the woman’s running the house
Democrat or Republican - which way will you vote?
Either one you might as well put a blade to your throat
When they see you all they see is just a slave from the boat
And the coon on the TV got paid when he spoke
Whole world getting restless, that’s hard to defeat
Country split down the middle, riots all in the street
In the end, none of this will be fit to behold
Economy breaking down, better get you some gold
[Chorus]
We in the war zone
It’s gettin’ real in this war zone
No chance to fix America, it’s too far gone
Get your knowledge up, channel your anger
If we don’t come together, all of us are in danger
In the war zone
It’s gettin’ real in this war zone

No chance to fix America, it’s too far gone
Get your knowledge up, channel your anger
If we don’t come together, all of us are in danger
[Verse 3]
It’s getting hard to keep up with all the ones they shot
If we in trouble and we need ‘em to respond, they not
They’ll let you have a few weapons to run they spot
But it’s a plot, you ain’t got the kind of guns they got
It’s hate in their hearts, knowing who you are, they mad
It’s been bad, we done fought in every war they had
Living here for a long time but justice is foreign
In these days, they’ll run up in your house, no warrant
It’s the same way as before, they sick and they rob
Snatch you out your vehicle, dogs sniffing your car
It ain’t nothing for a pig to come steal your life
Being a woman won’t help you, they’ll kill your wife
Chasing integration, you was never part of this nation
The FBI monitored our organizations
Brought us down to square one with no elevation
Now we begging our oppressor to give reparations
[Chorus]
We in the war zone
It’s gettin’ real in this war zone
No chance to fix America, it’s too far gone
Get your knowledge up, channel your anger
If we don’t come together, all of us are in danger
In the war zone
It’s gettin’ real in this war zone
No chance to fix America, it’s too far gone
Get your knowledge up, channel your anger
If we don’t come together, all of us are in danger
