Monster

Time it makes you old, experience Makes you wise. And it's only a fool who judges life by What he sees in other people's eyes. The decisions that you cast effect The outcome of your game the Only person who's gonna think about You is the one that's standin' in your shoes Live by the sword die by the wword I'm a weapon of my set. The only family that I've ever known Is the gun that's by my side Little big man he's not alone Now, he's all grown up his stories Written all along these city walls. Found unity, he's gained a brotherhood As they gather to beat you down The fists reign hard, the fightin' Never stops. There's no mercy in this town And I don't know when it's gonna' end for me This side of town is all I know It's all I see If I go on like this I'm gonna' End it all one day It's my destiny it's my reality It's society. I wear colors proud but stare Me down I've got a million scars to prove My pain You think you know who I am Try walking a mile in my shoes. Quick on the draw Never walk alone Know your enemy Never be afraid, it's what they always say Till they come around for you. Ghetto birds light the evening Sky as the sun begins to fall Another night he'll spend in this Jungle with his back up against the wall --- Monster - Strung Out
