Lets do this one positively

This one goes out to me mislead

To preserve the youths of tomorrow

Today is the time to stop all the unnecessary blood shed

Life of a gangster is not sweet

And I'm coming to you straight from the streets

This could be a story about anybody

But let's call him John Doe



[chorus]



A rude boy get murder cops were quicker on the draw

Another youth get murder a victim of the law

Rude boy get murder cops were quicker on the draw

Another youth get murder a victim of the law



[verse 1]

Johnny was wicked ragamuffin and raw

Pull off a robbery but the cops he never saw

He got surrounded and they crushed him like a straw

John Doe went out like that

No, no, no

He heard them coming but he didn't get to flee

Wanted by the cops was living like a refugee

Do no evil think no evil try it and you will see

Bad boy and law man don't gree



[chorus]



Wicker on the microphone that is where I get my vibe

Trying to hustle and make a doller ain't got no 9 to 5

watching my back when going home and trying to stay alive

Got to strive, got to strive, got to strive

Johnny was a gangster well ain't life a bitch

Robbing with his homies then they got ditched

Thought he was the man but he was rolling with a snitch

All he wanted to do was get rich



[chorus]



[verse 1]
