What is a man that stays true to the game But has to cheat a little to get by Well that's a person that I know too well Don't want to know but I don't have to ask why Everyone like a loaded gun You want some shit I'll fuckin' pound you, son Don't need a reason, pain I'm feelin' I gotta vent or else I blow inside Introspection, termination Can't tell right from wrong Fed up with this whole system It's gone on far too long You tell a thousand lies been told a thousand times Your words we hear but we cannot sympathize Thousand lies been told a thousand times Hard as nails the power to survive What's a man that stays true to the game But can't believe some of the things he sees Anger's a gift and I won't be kept down In poverty there is no democracy Used needle and a crack vile A broken bottle and a bullet shell This urban life is so volatile An inner city or a concrete hell Introspection, termination Can't tell right from wrong Fed up with this whole system It's gone on far too long You tell a thousand lies been told a thousand times Your words we hear but we cannot sympathize Thousand lies been told a thousand times Hard as nails the power to survive So pick it up, pick it up, pick it up, get up What is a man don't stay true to the game Don't care for no one, only cares for his greed He's playin' God killin' thousands of people 'Cause the power is the fix that he needs Racist goal of the white devil I watched our soul burnin' over oil A politician got no feelin' It makes my motherfuckin' cold blood boil Introspection, termination Can't tell right from wrong Fed up with this whole system It's gone on far too long You tell a thousand lies been told a thousand times Your words we hear but we cannot sympathize Thousand lies been told a thousand times Hard as nails the power to survive Slow Slow Slow
