BURN IT

For all the homies doin' time

Look alive

For every tear your momma cried

Look alive

When the 5-0 arrive

Look alive

Everybody look alive

Look alive!

You ain't ready!

See, we always on the run

'Cause they be chasin' us for fun

When the neighborhood in pieces

They say to pray and look to Jesus

Light a candle with the sun

'Cause we lost another one

Got us pledgin' our allegiance

To a hand that doesn't feed us

Preach

I got a mouth like Malcolm

And hands just like Ali

Black Panther, white mother

You better not try me

I got a mind like Martin

Visions of Rodney King

My city's on fire

You know, sometimes you gotta

Burn it down

To build it up again

Lights go out

In the town we're livin' in

Burn it down

When no one's innocent

Burn it down

I am a gun on the run

I am a gun on the run

I am a gun on the run

We live behind the lines

That they be keepin' us aside

And the president knows the Devil

Then in Hell is where we'll settle

If I had to pick a side

It's Inglewood until I die

We the necessary evil

For all these fake angelic people

I got a mouth like Malcolm

And hands just like Ali

Black Panther, White Walter

You better not try me

I got a mind like Martin

Visions of Rodney King

My city's on fire

You know, sometimes you gotta

Burn it down

To build it up again

Lights go out

In the town we're livin' in

Burn it down

When no one's innocent

Burn it down

I am a gun on the run

(Fight for survival but we was dead on arrival)

(So we gon' fight for survival until we)

Put me in front of the gun!

(Fight for survival but we was dead on arrival)

(So we gon' fight for survival until we)

Put me in front of the gun!

Put me in front of the gun

You know, sometimes you gotta

Burn it down

To build it up again

Lights go out

In the town we're livin' in

Burn it down

When no one's innocent

Burn it down

We point our fingers while they point their guns

Bullets, they miss us, we're guys on the run

So burn it down

And build it up again

Burn it down

I am a gun on the run

I am a gun on the run

I am a gun on the run
