ONYX

ONYX - Thangz Changed lyrics

A lot of things have changed since I grown up

Half my brothaz got locked half got blown UP!

From playin' '2 hands touch'and the games in the street

But the games ain't the same now we playin' with heat

SEE THIS DANGER! In my building they're rollin' dice there

Ain't nuthin' nice there who dare with ice there?!

My hallway ain't right wrong way to the thugs in the doorway

Peace kid I'm out, NO DOUBT! We just hangin' on the corner

Puffin' trees as tryin' to stay warm, sippin' ??? Jezus!

Problems after problem, it keeps involvin'

They got us starvin', that's why we out rottin'

(Knah'm sayin'?)

These days I can't remember like the 6th of December

I think it was September nah, maybe it was November (what?!)

This kid got rocked, just was steppin' on some sneakers

Heard from Tamica, he's gettin' buried in a speaker

Cuz his mom's was on that *inhaling*, gettin' laced

She got SMOKIN' IT! She took one bad hit

[CHORUS]

Aiyyo (YO!), you can't escape the ghetto

Hell no, it's everywhere you go

Aiyyo (YO!), you can't escape the ghetto

Hell no, it's everywhere you go

Aiyyo (YO!), you can't escape the ghetto

Hell no, it's everywhere you go

Aiyyo (YO YO!), you can't escape the ghetto

Hell no, it's everywhere you go

[Sonsee]

I'm not your rolemodel, I drink the whole bottle

Dont' follow nobody, cuz you'll never know tomorrow

Just look around, EVERYWHERE!, it's dispersed

It ain't no care, hate, and good times is rare

Or seldom last long, they always fade it

With my fam is dyin' over money and gettin' incarcerated

Yeah! Just to be as patistic, it's sadistic

Too realistic, we doin' this QUIK!

The other night kids got bad, got 'em kids build intend

They caught a law's news spread(?)

Last week they was blazin' on the corner, bullets ricochet

It's somebody's baby, had they kid maybe dead

They sold it from the ???, they say delease

Livin' in the ghetto...rest in peace

Hates where I'm from, the good tie up

The sky is grey, we never see sun

The ghetto-life is: 'live and let live'

All the day to day

[Sticky Fingaz]

It all began when Shorty rocked, took the law in his own hand

Sick of seein' his mom's gettin' beat up by his old man

So he did what any kid would've done

Went into the closet, got his pop's gun

Who need enemy when you got family?

It's hard to get a job when you look like me (WORD UP!)

See people don't just rob cuz they all unemployment

Some do it for the pure satisfaction enjoyment

Brrrr, it's cold, this world is freezin'

Folks get murdered over no-pair raisin'(NO!)

Packin' they backs, talkin' 'bout they leavin'

But where ya gonna go? You can't escape THE GHETTO!

You see more when you HIGH, even less when you LOW

You can't run from your own ??? home

[CHORUS
