What happened to peace?
I feel a hungry war machine is having a feast
I see his victims reaching out through the cracks of his teeth
Feel like we living in his stomach, we trapped in a beast
I seen the right foot of Goliath trample the east
A dead child laying flat with her back on the streets
Tell me why she had to die?
She ain't ask for the beef
Staring up in the camera's eyes and captures the grief
Still I let the hammer fly, don't imagine me weak
Humanitarians brought a care package to eat
Then got killed 'cause they bombing disaster relief
We're in a time where human rights activists bleed
And social media wake 'em up when the masses asleep
No more narratives and fake propaganda to leak
Babies are getting blown up in the land of the meek
While the world waits around for you rappers to speak
Another dead son, another crying mother
They say "Peace died young", toe-tagged in the gutter
Sirens howling as one while the city just kills each other
It's all smoke like I'm in my whip burning rubber
I'm diagnosing the block, the post-weak heart cold
And the mic just stopped
Peace got gentrified, I moved out of the hood
Replaced with straps, liquor and bad bloods
Red and blue lights got the hood feeling sick
Same colors on the flag but they don't mean the same **
It's all these dreams wholesale, nightmares retail
Keep a Glock under my pillow where I can sleep well
A lot of the homies flatline
Know it's not a good life then that's a bad sign
That's why I'm in the front lines
Ain't nothing changing this California sunshine
