Oscar Auliq-ice The Streets Ain't No Joke
Verse 1
I grew up on the streets, where the tough survive
Always looking over my shoulder for the cops to arrive
There's nothing worse than a snitch, they'll rat you out in a minute
That's why you gotta keep your circle small, and be careful who you're with
Chorus
The streets ain't no joke, you gotta be on your toes
Keep your eyes open and your head up, or you might get exposed
The police always watching, but they ain't stopping the crime
It's up to us to make it out, and make a better life
Verse 2
I've seen the struggles of the streets, where the weak get beat
But those who made it out, found a way to stay on their feet
The police say they're here to help, but they're just part of the problem
They harass and intimidate, and get away with it often
Chorus
The streets ain't no joke, you gotta be on your toes
Keep your eyes open and your head up, or you might get exposed
The police always watching, but they ain't stopping the crime
It's up to us to make it out, and make a better life
Verse 3
I'm from the streets, where respect is earned not given
You gotta hustle hard, and stay true to your vision
Snitches get stitches, that's just how it goes
If you can't keep your mouth shut, then you gotta go
Chorus
The streets ain't no joke, you gotta be on your toes
Keep your eyes open and your head up, or you might get exposed
The police always watching, but they ain't stopping the crime
It's up to us to make it out, and make a better life
Outro
The streets are like a jungle, where only the strong survive
You gotta fight for what's yours, and never take a dive
The police and snitches may try to bring you down
But keep pushing forward, until you wear the crown.
