The streets might be sleeping but still eating
Competing and depleting cos no one’s retreating
It just keeps repeating like a sports meeting
Except cheating’s allowed as part of the beating
Cos Its just about defeating the opposite side
So you can lie, ride a drive-by, until one of you dies
The streets stay the same, another relative cries
Why?… Are dry eyes not better than goodbyes
Bricks and mortar aren’t alive, its people that is
So let the streets sleep, while heart beats live
Give a shit, don’t give shit, yea that’s the biz
Commiserations aren’t good, it fucks the hood
Draw up an amnesty instead of drawing blood
It would make life easier for the majority within
So lets eradicate sin and bring a grin to the chin
Then everyone wins, violin’s will cease to play
And our days will be brighter, lighter like a sun ray
The only prey will be bovine, a beef buffet
So obey your morals, don’t quarrel with others
Treat men as brothers, don’t be haters, be lover’s
Yea, we need to discover a new way of living
Or one day there’ll be no where to play for our children
