[00:27.35]As I take a look down the boulevard
[00:30.04]For the ghetto youth life is very hard
[00:32.77]So many faces bearing the battle scars
[00:35.66]But love I bring to the people
[00:37.92]Coming straight from the heart
[00:39.89]If crisis is what we see
[00:41.64]All over the world is pure controversy
[00:44.41]One man can't put the price upon humanity
[00:47.66]It seems like the whole world's gone crazy
[00:50.60]Everybody knows Johnny came from the roughest part of town
[00:54.06]Survived the School of Hard Knox but still came up and made his chips
[00:57.70]The realest life  never watered down

[01:40.85]Things get funny when you rump with the daddy
[01:43.79]Later on the goons pull up in the black Caddy
[01:46.79]Next step on the news them find another dead body
[01:50.17]
[01:50.86]Tales from the inner city
[01:52.60]We break it right down to the nitty gritty
