Grand Puba - How Many More Lyrics
Pour it outHow many more gotta dieHow many more mothers gotta cryHow many more locked away for lifeJust tryin' to get a piece of the pieThe struggle continues, we hate each otherAnd we don't know the reason why, petty shitCrabs in the back room, holdin' each other backUntil the day we die, uhI been droppin' knowledge like this for a long long timeThey don't feel meWhen I strive to help the dumb deaf flyLong as I'm sittin' bullshit is just fineBut when I speak on them, that's when they draw the lineConspiracy is a theory, let's promote the black-on-blackNiggas don't know how to actLet em' send each other backToo many shorties dyin' everydayToo many niggas bein' locked awayRealize what's really goin' onAnd how the black community got so tornHow many more mothers gotta mournHe didn't make eightten and he's livin' in the lawnSomebody tell me what's that all aboutThere's too many shorties checkin' outMy nigga's locked up for a lifetimeDidn't even get a chance to use his lifelineThe game is setup for you to loseSo watch the po-po cause like Tom they cruiseFocus get cha' head straight, fix ya plateLearn from others and don't make the same mistakeKnow who you are, where ya at, and where ya goin'The worst thing about life is not knowin'Knowledge break it down it's know to ledgeCause if you don't know the ledge you droppin' off edgeThe hood drama is horrificEnough ghetto tears for years that could fill up PacificI'm not standin' here tryin' to be no preacherBut each one, teach one, hope I reach yaSee I'm here to enter brain then I entertainThose who lost one in the struggle, I feel ya painCause everyday somebody else is gettin' blownBut we don't moan until it hits close to homeHear me y'all cause the numbers seem to multiplyAnd that's the reason that I ask myselfHow many more gotta dieHow many more mothers gotta cryHow many more locked away for lifeJust tryin' to get a piece of the pieThe struggle continues, we hate each otherAnd we don't know the reason why, petty shitCrabs in the back room, holdin' each other backUntil the day we die, uh
