WHICH PATH ?

We can all expect something like death to
happen when we're living life hard but....
We hope that it don't
What can we do as a group
Except the death of a homeboy that was down from
day one by means of retaliation
or go out looking like a sucker by ignoring his death
The pressure is one you
Knowing that you can only go forward
There is no turning back
Time will not wait for anybody
Right now there is still two paths you can walk on
You can continue on your journey or take another route
Yeah it's easy to continue walking on the road which you've
been on
The other route, towards education and a better way of life
is another route you can take
To a real gangster losing respect and love from his peers is
very hard to deal with
Time is still ticking the decision is yours
Picking up the gun or dropping it is the path you will take
Time is still ticking, remember you choose your own fate
Time is still ticking, ticking, ticking
