Ripping Out Tears

Breeding stool pigeons, I can't take it
Breeding stool pigeons, I can't take it
I saw two gunmen.
I saw them who had weapons, black masks, black trenchcoats.
I was very frightened.
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Ain't no stoppin' me the Prophesy
I came to fulfill my destiny
Ain't no stoppin' me the Prophesy
I came to fulfill my destiny
Breaker breaker 1 9 in a world full of crime
They got a nine to my spine no time to recline
Sit wine relax and unwind
Time is running out
I'm trying to keep hope alive
President full of jive
My 9 to 5 is the hustle to strive
Born to die and survive at the same time
I gotta analyze what lies beneath genocide
What happen to the freedom rob?
Increase the murder rate or suicide
Ey yo goverment plus
Sometimes I think we were born to rot, on the block
So many got shot over rocks
While the neighborhood watch the cops and shout
Hope somebody listening
???
But never mentioning
On the occassion that's he's slipping in
Man this world is tripping in
Make me wanna say it again
Yo, money sex and religion
They got us all standing like stool pigeons
I can't take it
Man I'm fully clothed and I feel naked
Walking through these streets of death
Yo man gotta watch the left though
Man it's real sick
I don't know it's like some devilish shit
It's like who making all these plots?
Who wanna see us all rot?
I don't know but this shit is sick
It's like disease trick please
I can't take it man...
I can't take it damn...
I can't take it man...
I can't take it...
Damn...
Ain't no stoppin' me the Prophesy
I came to fulfill my destiny
Ain't no stoppin' me the Prophesy
I came to fulfill my destiny
Yo what a lady gotta do?
Gotta come through shake that ass to get that revenue?
Man my mother never knew never had a clue
What this ill game will do
I'm trapped in this rap life living it
Man, everyday I'm giving it
Love the God because he made this
I don't know trying to be famous
Man just shooting up
You wonder the Jews stay looting up booting up
For the front line
Man gotta speak from the mind
Man griddling
Got the kids minds griddling
Man this shit is just simple and
I can't understand all these demons man
Man griddling
Got the kids minds griddling
Man this shit is just simple and
I can't understand all these demons man
Cold killing blood stakes spilling
These streets is revealing
Yo we at the last days
Man and I'm trapped in this worldly maze
Looking like man X was just a phase
Now I'm back to my weed smoking days
Don't let it fuck with your brain
Ease through the pain and maintain
A lot of drug abuse
A lot of prostitutes
A lot of people dying for the loot
A lot of people barely got a roof
A lot of people barely know the truth
I'm like this
Ain't no stoppin' me the Prophesy
I came to fulfill my destiny
Ain't no stoppin' me the Prophesy
I came to fulfill my destiny
Ain't no stoppin' me the Prophesy
I came to fulfill my destiny
Ain't no stoppin' me the Prophesy
I came to fulfill my destiny
