"Troubled World" lyrics
[DJ Skee:]
That's right, DJ Skee
Told y'all motherfuckers, man
Listen up man, I ain't doing shit
This place is incredible
Watts Finest Volume. III, Jay Rock
Shout out to Top Dawg Entertainment
Warner Brothers in the building
K. Dot, what up, I see you?
Let's Get into it
(DJ Skee, DJ Skee, World Premiere)
[Jay Rock:]
[?]
The world's all fucked up
Dogg, it's hard to survive even with luck
Can't even walk outside without ya burners tuck
Colors is pullin' up
Everybody's scattered when the shots fire, duck
Ya not tried and I tried again
But sometimes I feel like giving up
And the governor, ain't helping us
He killed Tookie, no clemency, black youth
Only remedies, now change, just a memory
Thing gotta pass, gotta move on, shots gotta blast
Triggers lettin' off, bodies in a bag
Huff the same shit we live in
And do shit and pray for a better position
'Cause bullets got no air condition, they hot
Twenty-four, seven, you work in the dope spot
It's the only way you think you gon get that Porsche [?]
Got the heart of a lion, mind of a militant
I'm stranded on the island, but I'm far from Gilligan
Concrete jungle, with it kill for dividends
One time, don't give a damn about your innocent
It's a troubled world we livin' in
Got two choices, dead or in the pen
It's a troubled world
It's a troubled world
It's a troubled world
It's a troubled world we livin' in
I've gotta make a way for myself
Dogg, I hope this entertainment shit can help
Meanwhile, sublimed by a fake smiles
Every time pres is felt, it's like some of my homies are turnin' on me
Media senior tryna judge wrongly
Say I don't know but homicide and blow
I say that they won't give minorities hope
But we self destruct, say that ain't so
Life got me in handcuffs, and just won't let go
Reality feels like death row
Fatalities, back to back tsunami came between our tat
Look where I'm at
Thunder and rain, still niggas gotta feel pain
A troubled world can't be a shame (shit, shit)
I know things just can't be right
Still [?] your sight, hope for a better life
Got the heart of a lion, mind of a militant
I'm stranded on the island, but I'm far from Gilligan
Concrete jungle, with it kill for dividends
One time, don't give a damn about your innocent
It's a troubled world we livin' in
Got two choices, dead or in the pen
It's a troubled world
It's a troubled world
It's a troubled world
It's a troubled world we livin' in
Momma asked why I don't smile like I used to
(This is a DJ Skee exclusive)
'Cause back then I thought I had a future
And if ya got a voice, yeah, police'll mute ya
I seen that scenario from pop
'Cause now'days is mo' crooked than rookiee cops
Complainin' about their partner that got shot
So they gon draw first, even if ya reachin' for your license in ya purse
Goddamnit, it hurts, to see society fail
And my generation either dead or in jail
To see twenty-five gotta pace myself
And play the game smart when the cards is dealt
And only time will tell, will I surive this troubled world?
And sometimes it makes sick, I'm quick to hurl
But still gotta live with it and hope for change
Got the heart of a lion, mind of a militant
I'm stranded on the island, but I'm far from Gilligan
Concrete jungle, with it kill for dividends
One time, don't give a damn about your innocent
It's a troubled world we livin' in
Got two choices, dead or in the pen
It's a troubled world
It's a troubled world
It's a troubled world
It's a troubled world we livin' in
That's right, DJ Skee
Told y'all motherfuckers, man
