Times R Getting Crazy - Mac Dre

Awe, yeah

Mac Dre

From the brain

They don’t know nothing about this type of music, mayne

So-so dope

Check it out…

1991 can’t leave my house without packing my gun

'cus nowadays things ain’t so clean

You either end up dope dealing or being a dope fiend

Too much stress on a young man’s brain

Smoking that dank to deal with the pain

Much love for the brothers in the crew

But who in the crew will be here in '92?

Every damn day I see more

Brothers getting killed or thrown in a trunk

Dope fiend mothers sellin sex

Welfare mother’s waiting for checks

Pops in the bathroom shooting Hop

Tell me, my brothers, where does it stop?

I got to get a grip, can’t let it phase me

I’m staying strong, 'cus times are getting crazy

Times are getting crazy

Times are getting crazy

Times are getting crazy

Times are getting crazy

Times are getting crazy

Times are getting crazy!

Brothers search hard for that perfect life

5 bedroom home, 2 kids, and a wife

Dog in the back by the swimming pool

Everybody wants to be living cool

But, to have these things you must have hope, mayn

Can’t get wrapped up in the dope game

It ain’t cool, you better stay far

Life is much more than brains and a car

Girls having babies before it’s time

Getting pregnant and don’t have a dime

THINK, baby, don’t be a fool

You better wait until things get cool

Keep a hat on a young man’s jimmy

It’s safe sex, but you don’t hear me

Wake up, you can’t be lazy

'Cus times are getting crazy

Times are getting crazy…

Children from the black minority

Locked down in the Youth Authority

Dewitt-Nelson, Washington Ridge

These are places they lock down kids

It ain’t right, it wasn’t meant to be

We don’t belong in no penitentiary

You got a talent, you better use it

Pick up a pen and write some music

And if not, boy, play sports

Get the Hoop ball and hit the court

The dope game just ain’t cool

You better try and stay in school

'Cus times are getting crazy…

Times are getting crazy
