Jaya The Cat - This Town lyrics

God's ways can be hard to understand

When your living your life out of a trashcan

And for some the mic can turn into a crack pipe

If you don't have the strength to fight

Like don carlos said it's just day to day living

Staying one step ahead of the system

And if you don't watch out it'll piss all over you

And there's always some motherfucker there to say "i told you so"

And so it's 7 for 10 on your foodstamps

But if the vice squad catches you kid you'll have to make other plans

To fill up that pipe

Cause it's a downward spiral it just don't happen overnight

This town has left you so hard

And what about all those things when you were young?

And what about all that shit that you never done?

When you take, take, take, take what will you receive?

When you lie, lie, lie, lie what can you believe?

Hey kid where you been?

It's been a long time since you left the garden

Used to see you downtown at all the bars

Now you're sleeping near a heating grate

Living in your car

Begging spare change just to straighten out your brain

But the shit your putting in it is more of the same

Of what put you there in the first place

You think your buying freedom but it's just freebase.
