Room With A View lyrics

[Brother Ali]
One side of the street, is Malone`s Funeral Home and the
Other side`s a library, try very hard to picture this shit
Walk through where I live at
Where parents are embarassed to tell you they raise they kids at
You`ll need some half and half over 8 bar you can get that
Fuck with Little Rodney and you`ll get all of your ribs cracked
In a location where slanging crack rock is not seen as a fuckin` recreation but a vocation
And the sellers and smokers are both out pacing
Got one eye on Minneapolis P.T. they both racin`
3 for 50 is the supply and demand, and the
Twin Cities` American heartland, and they
Been busy, masterminds tearing apart plans
And hoop dreamers ballin` with blisters on they hands
With chains danglin` from the rims
Pain strangles `em from within
Till` the belt around the arm makes the veins stand at attention

I try to block it out with a bed sheet the moonlight`s as a curtain
`Cause I`m not comforted by red and blue lights when I`m hurtin`
Mommy loves you yeah I knew but I wasn`t certain
`Cause the lenses through which she views life wasn`t workin`
As a boy she told me wait till` your father to come home
I`m 24 still waitin` for my father to come home
And some parents only touch they children when a whips brought
That`s why bad kids do bad shit, just so they could caught
And get touched, this growing up shit`s rough
That`s a big part of why were so mixed up
Shit we don`t have Bar Mitzvah`s
We become men the first time our father hits us
And we don`t open gifts up
Sister Regina from across the street is beautiful
But for 50 bucks ain`t nothing she won`t do to you
Used to be premium pussy now she u
