Lyrics
NovA - Verse 1:
Cops that search cavities
Tragedy, street, hammers, leave
Caskets, teen casualties, paster say it ain’t as it seems.
Says heavens on my doorstep
All I see is a war that’s
Outside of my blinds and porches
Should I survive these forces
Took loses, that left forces
On the wire, of course it’s
On channel 6 at 4
Plus, my man said keep a banger
Cuz danger lurking, round corners
I’m steeped, so deep the reaper, would need, his black sheet to haunt us
Will I survive the gauntlet
The ghetto left me shell shocked, cell tower, or cell blocks
Shots ring, or ya bail blocked
Leave earth, ain’t no pale dot
No Sagan’s, because Reagan, left neighborhoods everywhere hot
From projects to the crack house, the bando, was just our sandbox
**** beef, ain’t no lamb chop
Guns shots can’t no hand block
Won’t snitch, but shits depressing
Can’t guarantee that ya man’s not
D’evils, feed unfair shots
Search and seizure, the jail, cops,
Welfare office, cuz ain’t no check, up in your mailbox.
Chorus x2:
(Hell on earth)
We don’t sleep, cuz we don’t dream, ****
(Hell on earth)
After conviction be on a leash, ****
(Hell on earth)
Project babies, shoot up the scene, ****
(Hell on earth)
Get your honor, when court convene, ****
Styles P - Verse 2:
Hell on earth, dance with the devil, when in the devil’s spot
Project babies letting the metal pop
The court say in god we trust
But that is never ock,
Your honor ain’t got no honor
Streets is tougher than leather
Keep your third eye open for shit they never watch
Time don’t stop, but you never seen a forever clock
Nor calendar, life has its challenges
Makes you a challenger, until you a champion
Streets will put you to sleep, like it’s an ambien
Life is a bitch, well I’m guessing that she’s a hoe too
Hell on earth, fucked **** over what did you go through
Me, I been through a lot, homie and I can show you
Matter fact, I can tell you,
Trying to get to heaven, cuz I’ve been going through hell too
If you don’t ever sleep, there ain’t a dream they can sell you
Hell on earth, like the homie NovA tried to tell you.
Chorus x2:
(Hell on earth)
We don’t sleep, cuz we don’t dream, ****
(Hell on earth)
After conviction be on a leash, ****
(Hell on earth)
Project babies, shoot up the scene, ****
(Hell on earth)
Get your honor, when court convene, ****
