Questions - Black The Ripper

Jesus, answer these questions

How come niggas in the hood ain’t receiving your blessings?

It’s constant stressing

It’s our environment that stops us progressing

Are you teaching us a lesson

By putting us in the Ends with bad tension?

Everyone cops a weapon

So when the war’s on they got protection

I got to mention

The harassment from police is never ending.

What’s going on?

What’s happening?

How is London City a tourist attraction?

Come round the East Side, you’ll see some action

My only outlet’s the rapping

I stay true to this

Cause if I weren’t doing this

I’d probably be jacking

There must be more to life than this

Grow up, get a job, find a wife, have kids

Work hard day and night

Try and get rich

Get old, get sick and die

And that’s it.

No

There must be more to life than this

Grow up, get a job, find a wife, have kids

Work hard day and night

Try and get rich

Get old, get sick and die

And that’s it

Why are we here?

Why do we breathe this air?

I don’t get it

You might think I’m sad and pathetic

But this topic never gets spoke about

I’m interested

Everyone says they’re repping

Without understanding what they’re representing

It’s time to start asking questions

Cause a lot of subjects go without mention

How come the youth walk with weapons?

And out in the Ends we feel threatened

I’ve got a short temper but I always remember to keep my cool

Cause your life can change in a matter of seconds

Anger could leave you seeking vengeance

Now you’re receiving a sentence

And no-one can help you, not even your parents

There must be more to life than this

Grow up, get a job, find a wife, have kids

Work hard day and night

Try and get rich

Get old, get sick and die

And that’s it.

No

There must be more to life than this

Grow up, get a job, find a wife, have kids

Work hard day and night

Try and get rich

Get old, get sick and die

And that’s it?
