Justified Street Actions Lyrics by OnlyOne

Police Brutality

2009

OnlyOne:
I just took a look across the street and there's the ATF
On my rainy deck, baby steps away from crazy meth
I black out, from a heavy dose I wake up
To find my dad's house filled with federals and Jacob
Sippin' my Henny slow, I break up
My head is in my medical
And I blaze a blunt but you already know
I let the pencil just explain it
I made getting dead presidentials detrimental to my situation
Why do people cherish the greed and respect while
Single parents have to bleed for their checks now?
Careless I can't be with connects
Cause that's when you get them Sheriffs
That breathe down your neck
They got me checking if I'm still alive, the force isn't there
It's like it's wrong to look upon someone's misfortune and care
We drink away our problems like we got endorphins to spare
The bank and ATM became a place of worship and prayer
A free man I can supposedly be
But I need to eat and I can't get my groceries free
Life is kind of like an egg when it's over-easy
And I sure as hell was never born with rosary beads
Mother's concerned
Handing me money to feed my hunger to learn
But I won't take it, I'm as stubborn as her
I need no man's help
My dad wanted to, but I'm responsible for my own damn self
I try to picture right without the bad
My father hit his wife
So in turn I learned to fight and live a life without a dad
What about the past? You is who you is
I never said my situation was special, it's just the truth, ya dig?
I was born with ill fate, all the poor can relate
I ate off poorly built plates on the floor from milk crates
It's either eat your spinach or you get a whipping, fool
But now I'm grown and getting spinach what I'm fin' to do
To the poor this isn't new, but to the rich it's like an interview
I'll answer the questions so y'all can get a clue
We've been abused by this ghetto economy
My man Ron had been accused of federal robbery
And to think a friend of me, now in the penitentiary
Reading letters he sent to me, I bought books that'll set him free
I fear not those who kill their body, so I let it be
Eventually I guess I'll just get whatever is meant for me
I live my life for what I do, whatever happens gon happen
I don't have to justify my actions
I live my life for those I love, whatever happens gon happen
I don't have to justify my actions
