Lay down your weapons, weapons for me Lay down your weapons, weapons for me If that means anything Listen little man, I done told you *** the hype ting I done told you road life ain't what it might seem Where I'm from we do wrong for the right cream But at a price, could lose your life for some nice things No nice dreams, just fiends and sirens No lie, you don't wanna hear the nine scream These cold nights got us sippin' like a ice drink My bro died, he got hit up like lightning My bro dog killin' me, he's in prison with the lifers Young'un listen, can you vision where my mind is? This life sickness, sort of like fire Friends tell us bitch, I know you heard about Spider I recommend you take a tellin' from me Cause I've been in it from the start dog, it's hell in these streets Once you in it, then you in it, ain't no settlin' beat Lay down your weapons, *** reppin', get your money and leave Lay down your weapons, weapons for me Lay down your weapons, weapons for me Let me take the lead Can we avoid war? Search and destroy war Learn what to live for, if that means anything Lay down your weapons, weapons for me If that means anything You think this life looks fun? Well look a little closer You just might find this life isn't what you hoped for The roadside's a lie, and the proof's in the cold jar The truth is you died, so sit down, no sofa Prison livin' is an image you don't know done Bitch you livin' in this prison and it's so dark And when you listen, you hear whispers from the cold draft Lookin' in the mirror at a sinner with a broke heart I know it's so hard, I hope it won't last I know you're scarred and you just wanna get your dough fast But you don't wanna end up dead or stuck behind bars Time is of the essence and the present flies past When the nines bark, mothers lose their baby boys But die hard kids wanna play with toys Listen to my voice, can you hear my pain? Lay down your weapons, weapons for me Lay down your weapons, weapons for me If that means anything Can we avoid war, search and destroy war Learn what to live for, if that means anything Lay down your weapons, weapons for me If that means anything If that means anything If that means anything If that means anything If that means anything
