These Streets
These streets, they don't know
They don't know
These streets, they don't know mercy
These streets, they don't know grace
These streets, swear they wanna hurt me
They stare all in my face
I swear if these streets ain't hell then
I don't wanna see that place
I swear if these streets ain't hell then
I don't wanna see that place
I swear everybody love talking greazy
Sell a likkle ting then they're talking Jeezy
Too many picture, them man are cheezy
Causing dread like them man are Weezy
Tempted by the life like, tease me tease me
But the devil is a liar, please believe me
Him seh fi press trigger like squeeze me, squeeze me
Next ting you inna cell, like please release me
I been around the block, circled that twice
Second time around, I was half as nice
They said if God is good, why is there evil?
I point at myself and then I point at the people
These streets, they don't know mercy
These streets, they don't know grace
These streets, swear they wanna hurt me
They stare all in my face
I swear if these streets ain't hell then
I don't wanna see that place
I swear if these streets ain't hell then
I don't wanna see that place
Make the sign of the cross, before you cross the road
Know, them man are crasses, no street code
You want things to be fine park pon di yellow line
Life full of sour grapes, but - Jesus is the vine
Life's so short, like we're watching a vine
Buying drinks at da club, tryna catch a whine
As we toast to the sins of a soul left behind
I see no good, it's like I'm legally blind
I came back to the block, I had to look twice
My people sold their soul, and they never knew the price
They know God is good, but still chose evil
I blame myself - and then I blame my people
These streets, they don't know mercy
These streets, they don't know grace
These streets, swear they wanna hurt me
They stare all in my face
I swear if these streets ain't hell then
I don't wanna see that place
I swear if these streets ain't hell then
I don't wanna see that place
They don't know
These streets, they don't know mercy
These streets, they don't know grace
These streets, swear they wanna hurt me
They stare all in my face
I swear if these streets ain't hell then
I don't wanna see that place
I swear if these streets ain't hell then
I don't wanna see that place
I swear everybody love talking greazy
Sell a likkle ting then they're talking Jeezy
Too many picture, them man are cheezy
Causing dread like them man are Weezy
Tempted by the life like, tease me tease me
But the devil is a liar, please believe me
Him seh fi press trigger like squeeze me, squeeze me
Next ting you inna cell, like please release me
I been around the block, circled that twice
Second time around, I was half as nice
They said if God is good, why is there evil?
I point at myself and then I point at the people
These streets, they don't know mercy
These streets, they don't know grace
These streets, swear they wanna hurt me
They stare all in my face
I swear if these streets ain't hell then
I don't wanna see that place
I swear if these streets ain't hell then
I don't wanna see that place
Make the sign of the cross, before you cross the road
Know, them man are crasses, no street code
You want things to be fine park pon di yellow line
Life full of sour grapes, but - Jesus is the vine
Life's so short, like we're watching a vine

These streets, they don't know grace

They stare all in my face
I swear if these streets ain't hell then
I don't wanna see that place
I swear if these streets ain't hell then
I don't wanna see that place
