In the beginning there was confrontations in these streets

Cause these police beat us

We tired of runnin' fuck peace

Young brothers born to fail, skippin' bail, helluva start

Could it be them, bitches was hatin' 'cause our skin was too dark?

Handed down his sentence, he got no reason to live

A 25-to-life nigga never knowin' his kids

That's how they do it to us, it seem we caught in between

Another one, wastin' away for what he did in his teens

Life is hard, situation on these streets is critical

Everybody chasin' dough, if them ain't your folks, then here we go

If we ridin', then let's ride, do-or-die, homicide

But tell me the reason for lost lives

Could it be we all caught up in a scandalous system?

Fallin' through the cracks, blinded by the lies we given

Seen these G's on these streets bleed freely but why?

It seem too many of us born to die

But life goes on, and on situation in time

How many lost souls molded by a criminal mind?

From the Bay in California to the streets of the east

Can't be no justice without no peace, believe



Life Goes On

No matter what they say or do, I ain't never givin' up on you

I won't doubt ya baby, won't doubt ya baby

And no matter I'ma keep it true, and together we gon' make it through

I'm about ya baby, ain't livin' without ya baby



A ruthless cycle of thugs, coppers, drugs, heliocopters, blood, spitting choppers, slugs

Who could stop to love this lifestyle juveniles embracin'?

I'm lacin' adolescents with lessons no one could beat the cases

I'm chasin', my competitors, no need for a spot

Conversation keep these cowards off my stick when I bust

Forget Versache-watchy Cartier playas, I'm still the same

But I can't condone the phony 'cause I'm prone to be me

Now what you sayin' huh? Life Goes on

From the Atlantic to the Bay, what? Life Goes on

To all my people gettin' paid, huh? Life Goes on

Never forgettin' where you came from, Life Goes on, fa' sho

Now keep on strivin' and survivin' don't let life get down on you

Forget these haters that betray mistakin' kindness for a fool

Keep your head up, don't get fed up, keep on doin' what you do

For all true players in this game of life you got to know the rules, true



But Life Goes On

No matter what they say or do, I ain't never givin' up on you

I won't doubt ya baby, won't doubt ya baby

And no matter I'ma keep it true, and together we gon' make it through

I'm about ya baby, ain't livin' without ya baby



No matter what they say or do, I ain't never givin' up on you

I won't doubt ya baby, won't doubt ya baby

And no matter I'ma keep it true, and together we gon' make it through

I'm about ya baby, ain't livin' without ya baby



Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up 8x



Now that's one too many times more than three had to die 45's got to spittin

6:30 was the time, 7 years gone by, 8 of us done been deceased

9 times outta 10 somebody bleedin' in these streets

Tell me what's the reason? Trial date's the 10th

These juveniles in wild life smile upon your death

Went from kids to killas, fun lovin' to felonies could it be

We self-destructin' in this rush for the cheese?

Everybody in this world gone crazy

See money and murder be the measure of a man everyday

Separate from the fake, break bustas for how they livin

'Cause some takin' better care of their cars then of their kids

And it still seem we caught up in a scandalous system

Fallin' through the cracks, blinded by the lies we given

Seen these G's on these streets bleed freely but why?

It seem too many of us born to die



But Life Goes On

No matter what they say or do, I ain't never givin' up on you

I won't doubt ya baby, won't doubt ya baby

And no matter I'ma keep it true, and together we gon' make it through

I'm about ya baby, ain't livin' without ya baby



No matter what they say or do, I ain't never givin' up on you

I won't doubt ya baby, won't doubt ya baby

And no matter I'ma keep it true, and together we gon' make it through

I'm about ya baby, ain't livin' without ya baby



Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up [x8]
