Versuri 10. The Good Die Young

These is hard times we livin' in, go down 
Churches burnin', planes fallin' from the sky 
Murder, the good die young 
Good definitely die young, this is a lil' somethin' 
To help you get through the day, if you could 
 
It was more than a tragedy 
Emotions be grabbin' me 
Plane fell from the sky 
We tryin' to figure what happened 
 
Burnin' churches, fearin' God 
Who can be so cruel? 
We all ignorant to AIDS 
Till it happens to you 
 
Just be a man, make plans 
Listen to your voice 
A woman's tryin' to make decisions 
We should leave them a choice 
 
'Cause who are we to say? 
Who lives and die, breathes and stops 
All this judgment on other lives 
Needs to stop 
 
What are we livin' for? 
Givin' more back than takin' 
On my knees still waitin' 
For my own salvation 
 
Now I feel abandoned 
'Cause Pat Buchanan say, ?I'm greedy? 
You can take my taxes, send me to war 
But can't feed me 
 
It's so easy to regret things 
After they done 
Babies catchin' murder cases 
Scared to laugh in the sun 
 
The tragedies that we all need 
Love in doses 
In times like these we feel closest 
The good die young 
 
Does anybody have an answer why? 
It seems the good die young 
Can anybody tell me why? 
Can anybody tell me why? 
 
Does anybody have an answer why? 
It seems the good die young 
Can anybody tell me why? 
Can anybody tell me why? 
 
Now in my world, will it get worse 
When I been trapped since birth? 
But I had to sleep in a hearse 
'Cause it was my bed first 
 
My grands probably burnin' 
Turnin' in, they grave 
Some folks ain't even get to see a high age 
But they did so, I ain't afraid 
 
And this money got me feelin' like a star 
And this murder got me 
Feelin' like my death ain't far 
And the land and stolen cars 
 
Don't get no better 
Don't get no weaker or no harder 
I was raised in a rush without my moms 
And my father 
 
So tell me somethin' 
If I grab my gat and get the dumpin' 
Would God get to lookin' at me funny? 
 
Rest in peace to my mother, Aquillah Beale 
Rest in peace to my father, Salek Beale 
Rest in peace to my grandparents 
And thug in peace to my brother, Seike 
You know I love you 
 
Witch world first storms and then Al 
Pac and then Yak 
Redrey Brown 
Coulda' sworn, I seen ya face in a cloud 
 
Family grievin' on your last breath 
Close to the heart whether you know it or not 
I swear, the love won't stop 
Jewel, that's my boo, Mom, Duke and Lou 
From jump you kept it true, helped to feed the crew 
 
The good die young 
Livin' fast jumpin' the gun 
Mama blamin' the community for killin' her son 
My cousin Darren wasn't scared of goin' 
But never knowin' he was dyin' slower 
I guess I see ya when I see ya soldier 
 
Does anybody have an answer why? 
It seems the good die young 
Can anybody tell me why? 
Can anybody tell me why? 
 
I know my life ain't promised 
That's why the wise move in silence 
Analyze these scandalous times 
It's hard Dogg but we manage 
 
Schools turn to war zones 
Even homes unsafe 
Leavin' children to play caged and raged 
They hate, how come? 
 
Someone explain, why the good die young? 
Why the bad die slow and outlive everyone? 
It's time somethin' is done 
 
For our young kids 
They growin' opus 
That ain't the way to live 
Tell me why? 
 
Days go past and as they pass 
Time move quicker 
No time for wastin' 
Put your hustle down my young dealers 
 
'Cause the end is nearer 
But at least that's what they tellin' me 
Hell, all I know brothers 
Ain't ridin' 4 3 felonys 
 
It's time to plan, plot, and strategize 
Capitalize, mobilize 
We in the war y'all 
It's for all y'all 
 
My family to the ones that stabbed me 
Little bit mo' love is what's recommended 
Yeah, and it's plain to see 
The seeds from you and me 
Gon' be the ones to lead us towards unity 
 
That's if we treat them right 
Man, teach them right 
Raise your kids better than you was 
And see what it does 
 
But if you don't 
Man, we sho' to be done 
And we'll all see exactly 
Why the good die young 
 
Does anybody have an answer why? 
It seems the good die young 
Can anybody tell me why? 
Can anybody tell me why? 
 
Does anybody have an answer why? 
It seems the good die young 
Can anybody tell me why? 
Can anybody tell me why? 
 
This is for all my homeboys that passed away 
And all yo' homeboys that passed away 
I send this out to all the fallen, fallen soldiers 
That's in the cemeteries buried 
Never got to see they dreams 
 
For everything I touch you touch 
For every step I take you take 
For every breath I breathe you breathe 
Every dollar I make you make 
 
I told you we'd make it to the sunshine one day 
You just got there a little quicker 
But like my homeboys, thugs say 
I'll catch ya at the crossroads 
The good die young 
 
This song is dedicated to all them 
Young kids and people that are innocent 
That died young at Columbine High 
Rest in peace Oklahoma, Outlawz 
 
Lil' young Xzandafer, Tasha, all them 
All the fallen kids the dead babies 
The closed caskets, [Inaudible]
