City 2 Save Lyrics

Hands up

Hands up

Guns down

R.I.P. Jelan Moreira

Hands up, guns down

Some way, some how

Rome wasn't built in a day

Brick by brick I got a City 2 Save

Hands up, guns down

Some way, some how

Rome wasn't built in a day

Brick by brick I got a City 2 Save

Legend, legendary

It's a celebration case of Aces necessary

What's the occasion, shit what's the occasion

Made it to 25, avoided the cemetery

On the west side, Queens our side

So many lost lives down my timeline

Terrified I can't even close my eyes

Every week we wake up to a brand new homicide

Dirty side, 40 side, genocide

99% the time issues could be rectified

Who decides when to slide or to let it slide

Once the ego meets the pride we too numb to empathize

I can't even emphasize, all the futures jeopardized

Frontline spirit can't no longer step aside

Black Panther I'm not

Black man that hate to see another black man shot

Hands up, guns down

Some way, some how

Rome wasn't built in a day

Brick by brick I got a City 2 Save

Hands up, guns down

Some way, some how

Rome wasn't built in a day

Brick by brick I got a City 2 Save

Is it me or is it not no more

Righteous rappers stepping up, no Tupac's no more

Them outspoken OG's ain't on the block no more

Clips squeeze kids don't even slap box no more

It's opp this opp that, bloodthirsty revenge

Scoreboard count the spins, now tell me who really wins

Brag about it on the gram, week later it lands

Right on the DA desk, then jury selection begins

Losing sons, losing kids, losing brothers

Losing friends, losing families to the mothers of the fallen

Put my all into the cause hear you calling

Never heard the phone ringing, I just know your soul singing

Takes a village, we can really save the city

Real niggas willing to come build it with me

Would you please put the guns down, put the guns down

Jada voice we gon' make it some way, some way, some how

Hands up, guns down

Some way, some how

Rome wasn't built in a day

Brick by brick I got a City 2 Save

Hands up, guns down

Some way, some how

Rome wasn't built in a day

Brick by brick I got a City 2 Save
