Stuck In The City

I'm talking to you, the youth of today
i know what you've been up to
and my advice is a step above theirs
cause i'm not a part of their youth crew

i've walked the same streets that you walk today
i journeyed through self-destruction
just like you i was an architect
of my own deconstruction

mastermind your own destruction
victim of your own disease
finance your own misfortune and rot
ghetto defendent. stuck in the city

it's hard to sleep when you're thinking about
tomorrow and who you're gonna have to rip off
dope on the brain. dope on the brain
it's in your mind, it will never get off
