The World We Live In Lyrics by Wavy Cee

Before I’m Gone

2019

[Intro]
This world we live in
It's a cold, cold, place
Murders, racists, rapists
Crooked cops, you name it
[Verse 1]
Turn on the TV, where do I begin
I find myself watching CNN
Now I'm sitting pad and pen
Writing about the world we live in, yeah
People really out here tied up in tape
It's horrible knowing
That their's victims of rape
From evil, the cops suppose to be our escape
Sometimes we gotta call on those with a cape
Government got money to go to war
But ain't no money to go to the poor
And the rich just ask for more and more
When we got some homes
With no door or floor
Now I hear there's a race war
Nothing but a country tore
Protests begin to roar
Now some tryna settle the score
[Chorus]
Can you believe that
It's sad out here
But look, what’s all this violence for
Broken buildings and a broken store
Is this what’s really in store
Chicago gang violence at its core
Banging over two colors
Can we just love each other
I'd hate too see one of my brothers
Not get out one these gutters
It's a cold world
Gotta keep the heater on ya
It's a cold world
Gotta keep the heater on ya
[Verse 2]
Turn on the TV, where do I begin
I find myself watching CNN
Now I'm sitting pad and pen
Writing about the world we live in
Yeah, it’s crazy
People really out here tied up in tape
It's horrible knowing
That their's victims of rape
From evil, the cops suppose to be our escape
Sometimes we gotta call on those with a cape
Man, government got money to go to war
But ain't got no money to go to the poor
And the rich just ask for more and more
When some got homes with no door or floor
Now I hear there's a race war
Nothing but a country tore
Protests begin to roar
Then you got those tryna settle the score
Then you got those tryna settle the score
