I got this melody in my head
Its gonna be with me till im dead It has to do with gangs
And what its like to bang

Its ringin
in my head
Now their bringin
Da casket in, Anougher homies dead

How could a color
Bother
Da lifes of many
Do these gangsters have any

Remorse for what they do
Who
Am I to judge them
I once was one of them

  ThePureBLackPoeT:

Grew up around it, Never lived it,
But they were my boys,
So I still kicked it,
Gun's tucked in secret places,
Blades under tongues, I knew it was wrong,
And when they came on the block,
they never aimed, just sprayed it,
I never forget when his body hit the pavement,
leaking from this head blood stained it,
He died for colors, I don't know where his soul went,

  kratos:

Yeah I lived da gangster life once
Now Im free for it
Yet
Dat lifes still apart
of me
But know I know I have a heart
Now Im free

This gangster melody
Still flows freely through me
I was a blood for 8 years
Now my fears

Is that my homies are still tryin
To live da gangster life
While Im rhyming
My homies are dying

In da streets for colors
While their brother
Is reminded by these rhymes
Of da time

He spent in da gang
Now he hangs
His head high
While he trys

To make da big time
With his rhymes
And this gangster melody
As he leaves
Da hood behind him

  ThePureBLackPoeT:

Sum kill for money,
Sum kill for a piece of colored cloth,
But it's good see you found your heart,
and a strive for change that's a start,
This A gangster melody, but a happy ending....
