Robbin' Hood Heroes

Rags to riches, star to addict, ya'll know how the story goes
Around every corner and playground, there's someone who could have had it all
But for one reason or another, their path went somewhere other than a world calling their name
From A grade students to class A users, what's happening with our kids today?
Poisoned by our own, can't sleep anymore, sister's work on corners, brothers keep on brawling'
So just tell me how the story ends,
The question is where did it all begin?

Robbin hood heroes
Just a page in a fairytale, lifestyle of the ghetto
They robbin' hood heroes,
Goes on and on, goes on and on, goes on and on
Robbin hood heroes
Just a page in a fairytale, lifestyle of the ghetto
They robbin' hood heroes,
Goes on and on, goes on and on, goes on and on

They deal to the rich, give to the poor, only metres from my door
Turning street legends to urban myth, from Rucker park all the way to Grey Lynn
From what could've to never been, be the words in the song you sing
Not with trumpets, instead with violins, while you dance by yourself (So hooked)
You can't see you needing help (So cooked)
So it's back to the bro you go,
It hurts, cause you could have had it all

Oh oooh
You could have had it all

Robbin hood heroes
Just a page in a fairytale, lifestyle of the ghetto
They robbin' hood heroes,
Goes on and on, goes on and on, goes on and on

Robbin hood heroes
Just a page in a fairytale, lifestyle of the ghetto
They robbin' hood heroes,
Goes on and on, goes on and on, goes on and on

It goes on and on, it goes on and on
