I'm talking about the badlands |
|
Ain't nothing but a sadland |
|
I don't blame it on the city |
|
But the badlands put its mark on you |
|
I see Johnny at the corner |
|
As the Popsicleman |
|
All of a sudden he's got a gun in his hand |
|
Now Johnny's in a wheelchair |
|
'Cause of the Popsicleman |
|
At the wrong place at the wrong time |
|
Now he understands |
|
I need to find some peace of mind |
|
I need a rest, I need to unwind |
|
This hangin' and bangin' goin' on |
|
This ain't no hell, this is my home |
|
Talking about the badlands |
|
Ain't nothing but a sadland |

I don't blame it on the city |

|
Bad Land!/You gotta know the streets muthaf-a/It can't be no one |
|
time beef muthaf-a/Can you feel me really/I hope you rocking mic's |
|
/than you ain't slinging dope/Check the masses who major in the |
|
gunblast on yah filthy rich ass/cause you ain't never cut class/ |
|
But they did/now they're f-n' underrated/Y'all showed no love/so |
|
now their hearts are full with hatred/And ain't trying to throw no |
|
joints, or no bullsh.../Just drink liquor, smoke hydro and just pull |
|
sh.../Stay jigg without the man, stack the grand/cause the plan done |
|
work/Now we're duckin' from Uncle Sam/Blam! Take that on yah |
|
way out/Stay out. Yah days out - lights out!/Back to my hideout/You |
|
inside out makes the inside edition/A scar is my tradition/Doin' you |
|
in intermission |

"A lot of sad things has happended to people that I know and |
|
grew up with. Some of them are no longer with us. Everytime |
|
I go back to N.E.OKC it dawns on me how sick it is that it has |
|
to be this way. I'm happy that Swing laid his fat rap on this |
|
song and that he voiced his opinion since he is from New York." |
