Victim - GZA/Genius
Written by：GZA/Genius/Gary Grice/Sulayman Ansari/Kristal Moss
Just another victim of the
Victim of the ghetto
Just another victim
That's how it goes ooh
Heavy foot traffic jam the hallway all day
Adolescence workin' for small pay
World so little
He could never leave his block
His home full of riddle
So he always need his glock
He coast with his eye open
Keep his metal smokin
Young wasted minds
Fiendin' on dimes cokin
Forgot kids quick to break rules
And known to make fools
Out of many down the streets be more safe than school
There's no diploma
That can break him from the coma
A bloody war in the country
The youth hungry
On the corner
Hyenas amongst me
Yabbin' bout the stories
They be hearin' always swearin
Can't even spell the sh*t that he be wearin
Caught up in the silk web of material
Superficial stains ya brain tissue
That's the issue
The young is lost at their own cost dreamin
Screamin' how we never hold positions
That's the meanin
Brothers of murder victims share the same grief
The elderly shake their head in disbelief
And no relief came till I aimed
And blast one shot and left my name
The GZA
Just another victim of the
Victim of the ghetto
Just another victim
That's how it goes ooh
My residence is a city where army veterans smoke rocks
On torn down blocks
** spots set out their shops
And cops watch
Innocent niggaz roam in flocks
Romanism in tops
Papers and knots
Churches and liquor stores on every corner plot
To get money not
Some funny niggaz act like they could pop glocks and those who can't cop
Sisters givin' up ass a lot
Brothers givin' up cash a lot
They be strugglin' to become someone because their parents not
Just another victim of the ghetto
Where lost minds settle
When the devil uncivils society and die free
With double w followed by JD around the necks
And wrists the god is now a dog
The earth is called a b**ch
And all my people wish to get rich in this wilderness
To push a lexus
Ice on everythin' from rings and braclets to the necklaces
Children molested within these pest infested buildins
Thieves uneducated in these schools
Paint on the ceilins
Peelin' off
But all I see is lost black babies callin
Please somebody save me
Please somebody save me
Just another victim of the
Victim of the ghetto
Just another victim
That's how it goes ooh
Just another victim of the
Victim of the ghetto
Just another victim
That's how it goes ooh
Just another
Just another
Victim of the ghetto
