I've walked my own road, bro
_____
I sit down and watch
_____
I sit down and watch
_____
I've walked my own road, bro
_____
I sit down and watch
_____
I sit down and watch
_____
The end of the world's coming soon
But the world doesn't care
_____
Just wants to stack cash like in football
_____
Some will surely be saved
_____
Too many sins exposed, yeah I just slip up
_____
You want me to tell you my story
_____
Where Shaytan's the only spectator clapping?
_____
Well no, I can't complain
_____
My knowledge is a weapon that keeps shooting everything down
_____
But life ain't rap, even if I rap my life
_____
It's damn hard to keep up 'cause the world moves fast
_____
The little bros are nuts
_____
They keep shooting themselves
_____
The cops, for their part, love to pin them down
_____
And as for our sistas, all we witness is
_____
Self-destruction, sad women
_____
Dolled up, bimbos, to seduce the gringos
_____
Akhi, people'll do anything to fill the fridge
_____
Of a gore flick and I admit the next part scares me
_____
Of a life too short, if I really could I'd redo it
_____
Of a gore flick and I admit the next part scares me
_____
Because Mama gets up early
_____
And my enemies test me
_____
And, between us, in the ghetto
_____
I saw we hurt each other
_____
Yeah, I've got the sword of Damocles over my head
_____
Yeah, sure, we wage war on each other
_____
But it's to keep the soul at peace
_____
Because Mama gets up early
_____
And my enemies test me
_____
And, between us, in the ghetto
_____
I saw we hurt each other
_____
Yeah, I've got the sword of Damocles over my head
_____
Yeah, sure, we wage war on each other
_____
But it's to keep the soul at peace
_____
Spectator of a world in peril
_____
Where peace signed a temp contract
_____
Where being a holy man is called childish
_____
I looked for peace and quiet, f*ck, it's a trek
_____
Witness to their debates, they think we're uncultured
_____
Bro, I came, I saw, I was beaten
_____
We've all seen things that traumatize
_____
On freezing winter nights, I can say the subway makes me sad
_____
Sometimes tears fall, it's automatic
_____
Maybe it's the season, or maybe the crisis is too much
_____
I saw that lone, dirty man stinking of booze
_____
Alone, drunk, it doesn't buzz him anymore, his son no longer backs him
_____
I saw that man's loneliness
_____
Who once was a strong, tough leader
_____
Tired spectator, we've yanked our hair out too much
_____
So in the end we swallow it, we’d rather shut our eyes
_____
Of a gore flick and I admit the next part scares me
_____
Of a life too short, if I really could I'd redo it
_____
Of a gore flick, and I admit the next part scares me
_____
Because Mama gets up early
_____
And my enemies test me
_____
And, between us, in the ghetto
_____
I saw we hurt each other
_____
Yeah, I've got the sword of Damocles over my head
_____
Yeah, sure, we wage war on each other
_____
But it's to keep the soul at peace
_____

_____
And my enemies test me
_____
And, between us, in the ghetto
_____
I saw we hurt each other
_____
Yeah, I've got the sword of Damocles over my head
_____
Yeah, sure, we wage war on each other
_____
But it's to keep the soul at peace
_____
Showed me the little bros will be lost
_____
I saw evil spread and then stick around
_____
I see we're lost, lost, lost, alas
_____
Because Mama gets up early
_____
And my enemies test me
_____
And, between us, in the ghetto
_____
I saw we hurt each other
_____
Yeah, I've got the sword of Damocles over my head
_____
Yeah, sure, we wage war on each other
_____
But it's to keep the soul at peace
_____
Because Mama gets up early

I've walked my own road, bro
