I slang to get by through this life
For protection, on my ankle, I carry a knife
Gangsters to my left and gangsters to my right
Always looking for a reason to fight
I try to find ways to leave this town
But more trouble is all I've found
This is my life that I'll never hate
Where I end up is up to fate
Don't look down on me
Because you dont understand or see
That this is the only way to make it through
So all I cfan say is
"IF ONLY YOU KNEW"
