A Walk Thru the Valley Lyrics by Masta Ace Incorporated

SlaughtaHouse

1993

[Intro]
"What the hell's goin on"
"What the hell's goin on"
Hi boys and girls, it's a wonderful day
[Masta Ace]
As I walk through the valley of one eighty-seven land
No matter what state, what city, what town
I can see there's no place to run, no place to hide
I could be in the crosshairs of somebody, somewhere
I wanna ask why...
But I ain't got time for that
I gotta keep movin on
Or be the next one to die
I walk through the valley of no-man's land
Sayin peace, slappin fives and holdin up those two fingers
To the many nine millimeter automatic pistol toting young men
That roam everywhere
I wonder what will be the next small incident
That will cause one of them to pull out
And spray bullets recklessly in every direction
Will my grandmother be on her way to the store
For a loaf of bread and a TV Guide at that very moment?
As I walk through the valley at night
I'm thinkin, "I don't know that brother walkin across the
Street in the black hoodie, so he may be a threat to me"
He's thinkin, "I don't know that brother walkin across the
Street in the blue hoodie, so he may be a threat to me"
What's goin through out minds
As we reach down into our waistlines
And pull out the tools, the heaters, the scraps
The biscuits, the gats
The jammies, the grips with the clips
All placed there purposely by them
"Here niggas, sixteen shooter made specially just for you"
What goes through our minds at that moment
When a brother's at the other end of our barrel
About to catch a hot piece of steel
And take his last breath?
What goes through our minds?
What's goin through our minds
As we walk through the valley?
[Outro]
Quiet down, quiet down
Now listen, this is Hardcore Rap 101
Check your programs to make sure you're on the right class
Right, everybody alright? okay
Now, when you write, you have to say that you smoke blunts
Also, you have to mention that you drink forties
You have to mention that you carry a 9 milimeter, a TEC-9, a MAC-10, a M16 or a Uzi
You all writing this down?
Any questions? yes?
Excuse me, sir, but I don't have a gun
It's not important that you have a gun or not, just act like you have a gun, alright?
Now here's a a taste of the latest group on the cutting edge of hardcore rap, that's the most everyday stuff on ninety-nine third
