I can hear Chicago crying
Tears falling from her eyes Every day she witness some of her die
Gangbanging, block wars, claiming victims
Homelessness, poverty, broken systems

These streets ain't treating her right
Killing her boys in broad daylight
Cocaine, pimpin' her girls
Got'em hookin', day and night
Life is hard
Got shallow graves in the backyard
In to it, driveby shootings from police cars
Moma laying on that coffin, screaming
While Rahm Emanuel, sitting in his office
Playing with his thumbs, plottin'
Scheming
Her people done lost their minds
Lost that go, lost that grind
Can't keep that the boat afloat
Lost that will, lost that shine
Looking for identity
Sixteen shot brutality
Innocent the cop a plea
Where is the morality?
Fakaz, takaz, murderaz, rapaz
Nobody wanna do good
Hataz, traitaz
Spare the rod, now everybody wanna know why?
The gun violence in the Chi is at a all time high
Drinking blood, the sidewalk says it's last goodbyes
The curtains close
And I can hear Chicago cry

I can hear Chicago crying
Tears falling from her eyes
Every day she witness some of her babies die
I can hear Chicago crying
The tears, the fears, the death appears
I can hear Chicago crying
Tears falling from her eyes
Every day she witness some of her babies die
I can hear Chicago crying
The tears, the fears, the death appears

This city's partially segregated
Black hated
The rich, the cops, and the legislative
Committing gentrification
Throughout my community
Destroying black families with impurities
They got me trapped like a rock
In a hard place
About to depopulize the human race
Trump is, ready to send in his troops
But not to patrol, but to come and shoot
Who will help us when it's time for judgment?
Not the police, the army, or the government
Chicago, Chicago not a wonderful town
It will be thousands of bodies
laid on the ground
The youth of today is to slow to know
The only way, black people will grow
Is to become culturally aware
And most about
Black unifying
Chicago cryin'

I can hear Chicago crying
Tears falling from her eyes
Every day she witness some of her babies die
I can hear Chicago crying
The tears, the fears, the death appears

Day by day, her children gets to see that life ain't fair
They close her schools
And no one even seems to care
Grave plots, have now become the home for tots
Vacant lots, have takin over her city blocks
Her county jail, is overpopulated
Her taxes have Inflated
Her neighborhoods, devastated
Drug infested what could she do? Her children are being molested
Funding coming to the hood
She might as well forget it
Her city officials, they pocket all her money
Her grass ain't even green
Her days, are never sunny
Violence escalated when they tore her projects down
They stole her soul
Now they wanna burn her to the ground
Her people are hungry, they starving
Off minimum wage
Bring in the anger of the fury
Now they're in a daze
She done lost all her spirits
So she cry
Arrivederci, sayonara, goodbye

I can hear Chicago crying
Tears falling from her eyes
Every day she witness some of her babies die
I can hear Chicago crying
The tears, the fears, the death appears
