[00:11.78]You know sometimes I sit at home, you know
[00:15.07]And I watch TV
[00:18.04]And I wonder what it would be like to live someplace like, you know
[00:22.76]The Cosby show, Ozzie and Harriet
[00:28.25]You know, where cops come and got your cat outta the tree
[00:31.74]All your friends died of old age
[00:35.30]But you see, I live in South Central Los Angeles and unfortunately...

[01:10.23]To the red, white and blue?
[01:13.08]What I gotta die before you realize
[01:15.11]I was a brotha with open eyes?
[01:17.94]The world's insane, while you drink champagne
[01:20.32]And I'm livin' in black rain
[01:22.61]You try to ban the A.K., I got ten of 'em stashed

[01:37.52]You know what you'd do if a kid got killed on the way to school
[01:39.49]Or a cop shot your kid in the backyard
[01:42.83]Shit would hit the fan, muthafucka
[01:44.72]And it would hit real hard
