It's an Addiction

Violence and anguish, its my addiction
Nah this shit isn't no fuckin fiction
Shootin up school, slittin throats, is all cuzza friction
So yo, this is my prediction
This whole generation gonna have the popo busy with conviction
Fuck the law, its only a restriction
The streets are too hard, fuck taxes and eviction
I'm sick of this shit, all this infliction
So ya better listen up cuz this is my diction!1

So lil Johnny boy's old man to a swing at em'
nailed em, smashed em, squashed em, splat em'
And lil Johnny, kid's too scared to rat em- out
Wipes his tears, stiffens up that pout
Hold in his yells, his screams, his shouts
His family is poor, the damn kid went without
Yeah this is what this shit is all about2

Sweet lil Jenny, she was only ten
When she found herself caught up with a couple of' men
I'll tell ya the whole thing, all it takes is a pen
She struggled to yell and fought back but then
The socked 'er in the head and that was just about when
The brought an end to innocence for Jen'
Yeah, the fuckers did it again and again
Well hell, bitch is in my prayers; amen!3

Lizzy and Benny are sittin on the stairs
Litterin the floors are a buncha broken chairs
His own flesh and blood, his own goddamn heirs
Just lookin at the site, at their hearts it tears
Now look what he did? Kids have their own despairs!
They didn't need his fuckin' shares
The damage is done, there's no making repairs!
Scarred forever over domestic affairs4

Hey look, lil outcast Billy just found daddy's gun
takes it to school, shoots a goddamn nun
"I didn't think I'd hurt her, it was all just for fun!"
But now all this trouble has just begun
And kids are hollerin, pointin', "He's the one!"
And Billy gets scared, begins to run
They are angry, you can hear in their voices as they shun
And he makes it outside, out into the sun
He's locked in the schoolyard, father looks at his son
All the pressure, it weighs a motherfuckin' ton
And just when this kid thinks he has won
The future he might of had becomes undone
And now he has none5

Too bad no one taught them a real lesson
Its a dog-eat-dog world, gotta look out for just yourself
No one else matters, they'll all turn their backs
Greed envy, and lust; Hell the whole world is a sin!6

Kid poppin pills, smokin a joint
Out for kills, disappoint
Got some pot? That's what I want!
Heroine? Take a spin!
Have some crack; its what you lack
Wanna smoke? Here, have some coke!
Hey, I told you this wasn't no joke!7

This whole generation is goin to hell
What can you expect? restrictions make them rebel!
Ruins their chances to excel
Towards sex and drugs, you only impel
And all these kids keep their secrets, too afraid to tell
Else they'd be locked up in a jail cell
What this shit your tryin to sell?
Well we ain't buyin, so fuck it! Farewell...
