What's Going On

(What's happenin'? Hey, bruh)

(What's happenin'?)

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?)

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?)

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?)

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?) What's goin' on?

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?)

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?)

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?)

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?)

What's happenin'? It's been so long, what's going on?

And what's goin' wrong? The good old days are gone

You forgot your plot and your plans as a young man

You invented a scam even you don't understand

You rig the enigma, can't figure it out

You change the route, now you're in doubt

You used to cut class, smoke grass, still pass

Figured you was all that, but that ain't last

The times is harder, the drugs is heavier

You say whatever, the more, the merrier

Smoke chokes your dreams and blurs your scenes

Now a young man fiend change his plan to schemes

(What's happenin'?)

No more good times, no more time

Too far to find, you're almost blind

You can't see what spot that the trap is in

(Hey, bruh) What's happenin'?

You had it mapped out, your plans get torn

You stay up for days and now your dreams are gone

You said you quit, stated your word is bond

(Hey, bruh) What's going on?

(What's happenin'?)

(What's happenin'?)

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?)

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?) What's going on?

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?)

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?)

My neighborhood don't look so good

I'll find a way out, yeah, I would if I could

But the government is doin' a project

(Hey, bruh) So I live in the projects

Where we fight for elbowroom to the doom

Try to live long but you die too soon

I might not be alive to see 25

Taught at 10 to make money and strive

I sold tapes at school, and made some ends

Met a lot of skins and even made some friends

Cool 'cause now I got a crew to run with

Break a couple of rules, have crazy fun with

But every now and then they give my knuckle game a test

But I won't fess, I just get rid of the stress

And then shake hands like a man

'Cause it's a family thing, only the crew will understand

But you had a one-on-one fight with drugs

And when he ain't cool no more, we bust slugs

Clip after clip till one of us is gone

(Hey, bruh) What's going on?

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?)

(Hey, bruh)

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?)

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?) Yo, what's going on?

(Hey, bruh)

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?)

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?)

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?)

The crime rate in New York state elevates

A city filled with hate, more deaths accumulate

Drug wars daily, a lotta blood spilt

Kids on the playground shot down and killed (What's happenin'?)

Nobody wants to live on the first floor no more

'Cause stray bullets explore

We're killin' ourself off slowly but surely

And at the end of the year, I'm sure many more'll be (What's happenin'?)

Rubbed out in a quest for clout

The rest'll be drugged out, this is bugged out

Half of the projects is dead or locked up

Kids gettin' kidnapped, then found chopped up

Humane abortion create distortions

And that's just a portion, you know that we're lost when

Babies addicted to drugs when they are born

(Hey, bruh) What's going on?

(What's happenin'?)

What's going on?

(Hey, bruh)

(hey, bruh) What's going on?

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?)

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?)

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?)

(Hey, bruh, what's happenin'?)

(Hey, bruh)
