Got a pocket full of stones, walkin up and down the block
See the cops at the corner, real niggaz never stop

When I'm gone to the coroner they'll leave me on the block

It's a tear I done shed
Another black male on the stairs laid dead

Move up, nigga ain't no rules in the hood
Too many drugs used in the hood
We all young black and abused in the hood

No sense to keep cruisin I'ma keep cryin
The judge got a grudge, the D.A. lyin

Hold your head soldier I'm right here for you
And that go for all my homeboys - yuh!
