Testo di 'Damn Shame' di BAD FX

I swear down we stay spliffted up beer yea we sip it up
But some of di youth dem don't give a fuck and kill each other over bits of dust
Running down the money like its a must till the feds pick'em up
Meat waggon plenty heads in the truck

It's a damn shame, it's a familiar scene, thought he was
Living the life, but it was really a dream
Until life woke him up and bitch slapped him with the handcuffs
Tryna not get shot, with his hands up

Used to spend it as it came
Iced out on the block jumping out the range
Everybody else hustle looking kinda lame
Knowing where he's coming from it's looking kinda strange

Gal dem get attracted 'cause the bother looking paid
Pheinds dem get attracted 'cause they know he's got the weight
Feds dem get attracted 'cause he's looking kinda bait
Didn't listen to the elders now he's gone astray
To the cell right away

Its a damn shame
Mothers have cried daughters have yearned fathers
Its a damn shame
(Some have been locked up some are departed
Its a damn shame
You have to be careful in the streets brother
And we all have to be there one for each other

Never been one for the beef I'm the peace lover
Everyone tryna be Street till the street touch ya
Spend my life tryna avoid all the mean muggers
Quick to run up on you as soon as they see suttn

Greed is a factor that often does motivate
You wish to reconsider as soon as they close the gate
Even tho you know its late, like you on deaths bed asking God to hold a space
For you up in heaven

Can you trust your brethren?
These are the questions you should ask when you show them the weapon
The holder of the secret's usually the one to leak it
Coming up with plans behind ya back plotting and scheming

Thought you had angels on your side no those are demons
Didn't want to hear the woke message so go to sleep then
Life can knock you right down regardless of how you feeling
Every fruit has its season until its ready for squeezing the vicious cycle we breeding
