Inner City Blues

Rockets, moonshots
Spend it all, the have-nots
Money, we make it
'Fore we see it, you take it

Oh, make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
This ain't livin', this ain't livin'
No, no, baby
This ain't livin', no, no, no, no

Inflation, no chance
To increase finance
Bills pile up sky high
Send that boy off to die

Oh, make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
This ain't livin'

Hang-ups, letdowns
Bad breaks, setbacks
Natural fact is
Oh, honey, now I can't pay my taxes

Oh, make me wanna holler
Throw up both my hands
Make me wanna holler
Throw up both my hands

Crime is increasing
Trigger-happy policing
Terror is spreading
God knows where we're heading

Oh, make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
