I was born in chicago 1970

What my father told me,

"son, you'd better get a gun."

My first friend went down

When i was 16 years old

Oh my first friend went down

When i was 16 years old

There's one thing i can say about that boy

He gotta go

My second friend went down

When i was 17 years of age

Oh my second friend went down

When i was 17 years of age

There's one thing i can say about that boy

He gotta pray

Oh life is a lie

If you don't know how to play the game

Oh life is a lie

If you don't know how to play the game

All my friends are going

And everything's gonna stay the same
