Feel invisible noose around my neck
tightening up with each problem
Giving up ain’t so easy
Hard to go on
That’s life
Status quo
If you stay
I’m gonna go
Inner city crime peak higher
Heroin, coke, pot desire
Killing each other for a fix
Cops dealing the dirties tricks
That’s life
It’s easy
Conform
It’s easy
D. Boon is dead
Minutemen warn civilians, yeah
the thinkers are coming
Pasadena gangs when he was young
Lock a race into the ghetto
System lies never let go
One lie leads to another
No one sees defeated brothers
Liar, they’re hurting
They don’t deserve it
