• What's really going on?
    My people we gonna rise
    If we just open our eyes
    Can you see who makes us weak?
    Killing each other for a color
    Right now as I speak
    Understand the cowards act fools
    But the bravest of all men obey god's rules...

    I see my streets full of hustlers selling dope
    Creeping trophy trucks and buss off killer smoke
    I see older folks turn away
    they disgusted all the money that I earn a day
    And they've been busted but everybody payed for
    The way they live may I be on my way lord
    I make a wish, I see mothers on crack
    G'z gotta serve them everybody wanna stack
    Keys it don't hurt them cold blooded will it ever be?
    Ain't no love you can die and still never see
    That the blood that you're spilling is your own kind
    Now take a look who you killing when you go blind
    All the years selling bricks black taught me well
    That life only gives back who you can sell
    And this message is colored by asperity
    So out of lessons these streets wanna marry me
    And it's on...

    [Chorus:]
    We're gonna take control
    Take our place on the totem pole
    you know we got to blow
    That peace pipe, peace pipe...
    We're gonna take control
    No matter where we go
    you know we got to blow
    That peace pipe, peace pipe...

    Stop the greed as I proceed to blaze
    And recollect my thoughts, 'cause we living in the last stage
    Of revelations doomed for a devastation
    So before I die, I'm gonna bring about this unification
    Spread love all across the whole nation
    Sheeting tears for my peers and all this s**t we facing
    'cause lord knows, this mexicano had it bad
    Just like the rest of my people had in the past
    They've been in misery suffering through property
    But I'm gonna help my fella brothers through this trouble G
    Lil' Russ well let it be known worldwide
    So I'm gonna reunite mi gente till we unify


    [Chorus]


    Bandannas flagging everywhere, claiming sets
    Gangstas playing double dare, aiming techs
    Many people heard of me when I was lost
    Involved with a dirty deed with nino Ross
    Homies was the full dad
    I was at the party with my steel hammer pulled back
    Thank god he turned into a better man my second chance
    But I don't think I ever can forget the past
    We was kids playing football having fun
    Now we playing 'shooting you all' with real guns
    One time for my dead friends I do my best
    So the trigger happy trend ends
    So you may rest...

    [Chorus]
