The Block
Before Jesus cleaned me up and got me out my mess
I was into criminology I must confess
Caught up into sin went hard on the block
Held heat wasn't scared to let that thing pop
West north south east they wilding here
Praying on those whose hearts are full of fear
The block ain't no joke these gangsters ain't playing
They get busy real quick no talk no delaying
Code of the streets is real and way strict
Slip on the block become the next Vic
Prostitution and extortion go down on the block
People sell dope and get killed on the block
It's a shame cuz it really goes down on the block
You really got to watch your back on the block
I live that crazy life and I watched it go down
There's a lot of lost souls that need to be found
Every city got blocks patrolled by cops
That will take you from your block to a cell block
First you get charged they read you your rights
Then they take you for a ride that will change your life
When you're in a cop car in your hands are cuffed
You start thinking to yourself man I messed up
Now it's off to central booking to court then to prison
You learn real quick it's a foul way of living
Cuz things get real when you hit the cell block
Three hots and a cot wasn't part of your plot
And them cons are going to test you straight up front
They want to know if you're a soldier or if you're a punk
And they carry sharp shanks they cut real deep
Disrespect will make them pull them out and settle the beef
It's a struggle to survive on the cell block
You pray trust God and give it all you got
From the blocks that were on to the blocks we're in
We're dealing with a serious epidemic of sin
We need Jesus on the block and the cell block
The harvest is ripe we need to water the crop
We're in the last days can't you see that it's on
We got problems out here the size of a King Kong
But the God of Abraham can handle the situation
We need to preach the message of hope and salvation
Come on Christian people this time to get with it
No more talking about what to do it's time we did it
Doer of his other word quick to show and improve
Let the Lord lead us time to make a move
You plant I water and God will give life
He can even give a blind man his sight
Walking in the spirit now you see the light
Walking in the spirit now you see the light
I was into criminology I must confess
Caught up into sin went hard on the block
Held heat wasn't scared to let that thing pop
West north south east they wilding here
Praying on those whose hearts are full of fear
The block ain't no joke these gangsters ain't playing
They get busy real quick no talk no delaying
Code of the streets is real and way strict
Slip on the block become the next Vic

People sell dope and get killed on the block
It's a shame cuz it really goes down on the block
You really got to watch your back on the block
I live that crazy life and I watched it go down
