I don't know what's goin on
 Everybody tryin to flip
 All they need to do is do the right thing
 Put it where it's supposed to be

 News story.. open to the media
 Crime bosses  do or die  or either ya
 live like a convict on the rock
 You get SHANKED  battered and brusied you get dropped
 in the bang  just livin like a savage
 And at the same time  your body's damaged
 Made a move on a brother from the Boogie Down Bronx
 He was a bully, that beat up punks
 in the cells, and caught a couple of the C.O.'s
 Snatched a brother by his neck
 and knocked him down and broke his nose
 Here's the bumrush - twenty at a time
 Started somethin new just when the brother dropped dimes
 Huh, this is a brother who's a drug kingpin
 Made millions and millions, again and again
 Used to, stitch a snitch just to get him switched
 But the brother didn't know, that snitches get stitches
 Had a Jah had a Benz had.. plenty of friends
 Had.. fifties and hundreds stacks of twenties and tens
 He was evicted, mother probably did time long style
 Had her workin with the chain gang in the coal mine
 Did the bid came out, but the brother was broke
 Had connects so the brother started sellin some coke
 And vials of cracks he sold it, to all the new jacks
 He sold, buddha and stuff, meth sloopies and smacks
 He wore Polo and Guess, dressed the part and the style
 Whole teeth were clean, every time he would smile
 He had a.. girl named Josie was a beautiful chick
 Ended up bein a girl in a, porno flick
 Tis the season to be skeezin, the girl made me sick
 Wanted to kick a little flavor so the flavor was kicked
 She's a girl from around the way that likes to play
 Spendin his dough, eatin out every day
 Wearin jewels expensive clothes so on and so on
 And my man didn't know that the girl was a hoein
 Now she got a little pot I guess she's goin for self
 Tryin to make brothers lick her, below the belt
 Takin trips to Virginia with a key at a time
 Makin 42 G's at a drop of a dime
 Now she's thick but what about the brother that put her on?
 And gave her, jewels and furs and treated her like a Don
 She forgot all about him, so now he's mad
 He got a thirty-two clip and when he find her she's had
 But that's the life of the fast lane
 There you just might gain
 A house and cash, and either jail or chump change
 I've seen it before, my buddies went through it all
 And because of that, I don't see em anymore
 Twenty-five to life, doin crazy hard time
 And in the jails, what's yours is mine
 Huh, and as I say I need a moment of silence
 The almight Kid Capri says.. stop the violence

 Stop the violence
 All you gotta do is put it in effect
 Put yourself where you're supposed to be
 Teach others, save the children
 And all that
 Big shout.. to the Trooper Love Crew
 Rest In Peace, to my main man, Chuck G
 Pop Duke
 This is the Kid Capri, and the Lords of Funk
 And we outta here... see-ya
