WHO?S TO BLAME

Intro:
Verse#1

What?s this infrared aimed at my forehead
Is it my fault that yo relative got caught slippin? and ended up dead
And just because I?m bangin blue don?t mean I?m bangin too
Now what you gone do when they come for you-------
Can stay strapprd blast back aratatattat in yo back
Now ya moma hollerin? they didn?t have to do that
Now who?s to blame for the reason ya kids aint got no real daddy
Is it granny, mammy, fanie may,or ya lil cousin danny
Take ya pick it gotta be somebody?s fault but not ya own
Too bad you can?t apoligize cause you long gone
And your spirit done left yo body where is it
Up in heaven or is it down in the pit
Only you know but it?s too late you aint comin? back
This aint the twilight zone gangsta ya death is a fact
And life goes on I wish you could?ve listen to the song
At least you would have had a chance now your life is gone

Chorus

Who?s to blame is it me or society for the riot in me desire in me and the fire in me
Who?s to blame for the lust to blame for these cuffs why do I cuss and always want to bust
Who?s to blame when I excell who?s to blame when I fail who?s to blame if I
End up in a jail cell or hell who?s to blame hua who?s to blame who?s to blame hua who? to blame!

Verse#2

Am I cool if I graguate from high school - nope
You gotta be dumb to hang bang and slang in the ghetto
Cause some of the thugs and gangstas got heart
And if smart they gone think you a mark and then start
Flossin? frontin? stuntin? gruntin? sayin? let me hold somethin?in other words punkin?you
So what do you do cop a pair of chucks and sag in some khakies
Put a frown on ya and act like you aint happy no mo
A tripple o/g 18 years later
Which one is greater the hood or being a player for the Oakland raiders
In stead of the draft you went to jail with a attitude like oh well
To the homies but deep down inside it?s like hell
You pissed off at the world because yo daddy didn?t raise you
Now every one you come in contact with gotta pay you
in one way or another even a sister or a brother but when you lay your head down you always blame your mother

Chorus

Who?s to blame is it me or society for the riot in me desire in me and the fire in me
Who?s to blame for the lust to blame for these cuffs why do I cuss and always want to bust
Who?s to blame when I excell who?s to blame when I fail who?s to blame if I
End up in a jail cell or hell who?s to blame hua who?s to blame who?s to blame hua who? to blame!

Verse#3

At a certain age you gotta claim responsibility
Thee humility is the key so cut that pride out gee
And reexamine the life that was given to you
Livin? is blue (who is you) iv?e been through the same thangs too
And I aint just talkin? the walk I?m walkin? the talk
To the ones who get caught I?m tired of hearing it aint my fault
I done been thrue more drama than the average my own family look at me and call me savage cause I aint livin lavish
The cars are gone the cash is gone
All I own is my name and my songs
Fate and destiny I hold in my hand got dominion over the land
That means everywhere I lay my head to the place where I stand
Who do I blame for my success ------------me
Who do I blame for my failures-------------me
Who do I blame for the fame----------------me
But I gotto give the glory to the G.O.D.

Chorus

Who?s to blame is it me or society for the riot in me desire in me and the fire in me
Who?s to blame for the lust to blame for these cuffs why do I cuss and always want to bust
Who?s to blame when I excell who?s to blame when I fail who?s to blame if I
End up in a jail cell or hell who?s to blame hua who?s to blame who?s to blame hua who? to blame!
