LA blocks
Born in 1990
living in the LA blocks
around gangs holding there chrome glocks
many live in fear of there lifehard
always carring a nife
drug dealer on every block
gun shots fired at 12 0'clock
friends pass away
And i live another day
every corner is a dirty cop
u jus wanna put a buulet in um and make um drop
life is a to survive you got to play the right cards
every day life is hard
this is the life in the LA blocks.
