Street Lights
Mobb Deep

[Chorus]

A lot of money got made, drugs got sold

Lives got took on these corners so cold, oh

Imagine if the street lights, could talk and tell the story of the street life

Every ghetto in America is all the same

Chasing after money got us all insane, oh

Imagine if the street lights, could talk and tell the story of the street life

Ah, I look back and reflect doing a hundred pass

Thinking about it got me have me on the gas

Vivid is the picture coded in my dna

Mammy bless her heart, as we walked out the door she would pray for us

Knew that Jake was on us, dex... against us

Same shit to foretold it,

Another life flushed down the canal

Left the house without saying goodbye and didn't come home

It's all too common, and prolly me if it wasn't for Rami

I put that on my brother who was... with the iron

The hood is full of life but inside niggers dying

Instead of prosperity, only jealousy's thriving

Street lights... makeshift memorials

Know how the story goes, I ain't trying to bore you though

I'm just trying to she'd a little light

Job done, even if I save only one life, listen

[Chorus]

A lot of money got made, drugs got sold

Lives got took on these corners so cold, oh

Imagine if the street lights, could talk and tell the story of the street life

Every ghetto in America is all the same

Chasing after money got us all insane, oh

Imagine if the street lights, could talk and tell the story of the street life

Missing dark tunnel vision, the light at the end damages anybody listening

I'm talking to myself again, we so close but yet it seems so far

It's like 10 steps back and just one step forward

Just one more push and 60 more bars,

Comes to the dreams we have, the life we want

If these blood sweat and tears could talk, they'd be arguing,

With the look in our eyes saying all...

That bone in your head, get shattered like windshield

Now how that shit field?

Yeah you got a lot of nerve, you deserve

Every drop of that pain, when you playing with the mob

Can't you see we concentrating on this baking

Lot of lives got taken, lot of time spent in the cages

So we spend our days doing whatever must be done to become

The ones that steady burn like the sun because

[Chorus]

A lot of money got made, drugs got sold

Lives got took on these corners so cold, oh

Imagine if the street lights, could talk and tell the story of the street life

Every ghetto in America is all the same

Chasing after money got us all insane, oh

Imagine if the street lights, could talk and tell the story of the street life

I can tell you about some shit you don't really wanna hear

Some many disappear out here

One time I saw a man with a gun

Chasing another nigger trying to run

And even know they grew up on the same block

He ain't hesitate to gun him down in the same spot

The nigger that you knew from elementary

Will make your ass unsolved mystery

[Chorus]

A lot of money got made, drugs got sold

Lives got took on these corners so cold, oh

Imagine if the street lights, could talk and tell the story of the street life

Every ghetto in America is all the same

Chasing after money got us all insane, oh

Imagine if the street lights, could talk and tell the story of the street life
