What's gangsta In my humble opinion What's gangsta is knowledge Spilled out on the track Tell me who are we really When we don't know our history What good is the church for When you can't trust the priest Guess the lies are easier to swallow Than it is to face the truth But the struggles of tomorrow Are the same ones as the past Wishing I could prophecy Or perhaps just fade away For brand new better day So until my dying day Living life like a catch 22, yeah yeah For every step I try to take yet they wanna push me back Yeah, yeah, yeah I ain't worried about it see 'Cause I can handle that, yeah yeah yeah If the sidewalk could speak It would tell you how blood is lick? While little girls were playing double dutch And look outs were guiding the police While they restored the projects For the inside to remain the same 'Cause if it looks brand new to me and you We won't feel the need for change It's got me passing back and forth on concrete Wishing I could prophecy Or perhaps just fade away So until my dying day Living life like a catch 22, yeah yeah For every step I try to take yet they wanna push me back Yeah yeah yeah I ain't worried about it see 'Cause I can handle that, yeah yeah yeah This one is for my profess That don died way to soon In the same block with the cracked rocks And another closed down school For all the precious babies With fathers locked down with fake crime For the sleep walking and blind chilling On ice slain by the mind I ain't gonna settle No change is going to come Each one reaches one My word ain't done, am gonna keep on living Living life like a catch 22, yeah yeah For every step I try to take yet they wanna push me back Yeah yeah yeah I ain't worried about it see 'Cause I can handle that, yeah yeah yeah Living life like a catch 22, yeah yeah yeah Living life like a catch 22, yeah yeah yeah Living life like a catch 22, yeah yeah yeah
