Lyrics
Crimes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In the glare of the streetlight
Young toughs on the prowl
In the pale of the moonlight
Ghetto wakes with a howl
Crimes, gettin' ready for crimes
Crimes, in our hearts an' our minds
Hot times in the city
Big deal on the curb
Kids strugglin' to bust out
Tryin' to act on their nerve
It don't matter what they taught you
When you're unemployed
Feelin' restless and ripped off
And you know you're annoyed
I got a new piece of news for you
You can get bailed out
God can change your criminal heart
That's what love's about
It was crime, just a low-down crime
Just a crime, in my heart in my mind
No more crimes
In my heart, in my mind
