Laughter And Tears

Walking down the streets, feeling the heat
Every corner a different beat
Noisy cars, falling stars
The pavement tells stories of wars

Cops and robbers, snitches and gangsters
The streets speak loud, but no one listens
Laughter and tears, fears and cheers
Always a party, never enough beers

The boys in blue, they don't have a clue
Ruling with fists, forgetting who pays their dues
Corruption, extortion, power and greed
The law is a joke, just a sign, indeed

Cops and robbers, snitches and gangsters
The streets speak loud, but no one listens
Laughter and tears, fears and cheers
Always a party, never enough beers

Those who snitch, pay the price
No code of honor, no heart, no spice
Whispers and secrets, knives in the dark
Broken trust, a life left with a mark

Cops and robbers, snitches and gangsters
The streets speak loud, but no one listens
Laughter and tears, fears and cheers
Always a party, never enough beers

The streets are a jungle, a mirror of our souls
We fight for power, for love, for control
Take a walk, take a ride, take a breath
The streets are alive, just be careful, don't test
