Mayhem (feat. Rush Davis)

Murder murder murder, city going crazy Somebody baby gone, the stats had said its record-breaking Reason unknown, only thing for sure is funeral arrangements My region torn up in pieces, I pray for better days cause This sh*t is daily How we end up here? People dying, people scared Peep the times, we live in fear The steepest times is feeling near 40 people, 30 days, imagine the way it played out Some was just tryna fit in, while others needed a way out I play out, scenarios in my mind, wishing that I Could be one to stop it all right in the nick of time But God, he's never mistaken But God, I'm asking you, why? My city stuck in confusion, I'm asking for you to drive The road to life should be bumpy but never should it subside To violence in front our eyes, you watch in horror as time Reverting back to murderous motive I hope you ain't blind It's too many of us dying This work of my hands Can't pray the world away War was here before my first breath Death was here before my first step So, Where is the life? Where is the life? Yea, I pray for better days Cause i been seeing the end of em' Kids bleeding on CNN I grieve like I'm kin to them Prosecution non existent, don't believe in sentencing Executioner walking free while the deceased was innocent Grannies bury babies, see the irony in that Ain't no questions asked and ain't no chance to fire back This cycle of confusion got us used to dying black Chief of police be misdirected, yea I'm aiming for the Cap I pray for better days cause I believe it Although it's hard to see Through bullet holes and misery And misty eyes that hold defeat Told my granny that I would to be somebody, so you see Mr. officer I can't be the subject of somebody's tee Fight for something or fall Ain't no bluffing involved We just stuck in the system and we just wanna evolve I just ask for a witness I'm bent on pushing the cause Change is coming and we at source This work of my hands Can't pray the world away War was here before my first breath Death was here before my last step So, Where is the life? Where is the life?
