Peep Hole

See them gunshots/
 Yea that's them goons with that iron out/
 If you listen closely you can hear the streets crying out/
 died before he got a chance to make loot/
 Thugs caught him sleeping left a slug in his grapefruit/
 And his moms cried a bundle of tears/
 Ain't third world but they concrete jungleing here/
 Were gorilla's and them tigers and them bears they be lying at/
 Thinking they the king cause they ain't met the Lion yet/
 Blowing on the Cush/
 Got'em feeling radiant/
 Trapped in the trap trapping twelve block radius/
 Maybe on the Boyd/
 dormin whipped like some quicksand/
 Peep'em in a nod make'em lean like a kickstand/
 All they want is pleasure/
 do anything to have it/
 boxing with the wind/
 Can't seem to grasp it/
 And Jesus ain't the answer they just see him as a lamb/
 He was beat, mocked, killed they just see him as a man/
 The hoods were it's grimmy they don't think he can relate/
 Being forsaking by your father seeing streets the all the hate/
 Seen so much death in the slums it's the usual/
 Pain gets suppressed they just numb to the funerals/
 Searching for some joy possessions bring them happiness/
 Living for today so they ain't focused on what's after this/
 The core of the hood this how the heartbeat goes/
 Can't show it all you just looking through a peephole/
 Tell me can you see it/
 The shots are firing/ the cops and sirens/ the block is crying/
 Tell me can you see it/
 The stress the streets claim/ at best they seek fame/ the death and deep pain/
 Tell me can you see it can you see it through the peephole/
 Tell me can you see it can you see it through the peephole/
 Tell me can you see it can you see it through the peephole/
 Cant show it all you just seeing through a peephole/
 Born for the grind/
 Whole hood heard of him/
 Before the age of 5 he had people trying to murder him/
 On strips and every block they was waiting on his rise/
 But them haters had papes and sent them killers out to ride/
 Moms & pops dipped from one town to another one/
 Pops was a carpenter but they was still struggling/
 Got to Nazareth that were they chose to fallback/
 If that ain't hood life then what do you call that/
 Came in our frame so he can relate to/ everything we face cause he faced what we face to/
 Raised in the gutter deprived from the best/
 But he wasn't just man He was God in the flesh/
 Came from above to reflect what his loves like/
 Stepped into time and divine was his blood type/
 Send me I'll reside were the sinners be/
 You'll ride for your homies but he died for his enemies/
 Just for u and I he would rise on the third day/
 The same God who spoke the world alive that wordplay/
 Now we got two options believe or be crushed/
 Yea he was beat mocked killed but endured it for us/
 So it's by grace through faith mans saved now/
 His life wasn't taken homeboy it was laid down/
