Gangster Tears

Gangster Tears - Nas

I'm crying gangsta tears

Only a few can feel my pain

I'm crying gangsta tears

Only if I could show you

I'm crying gangsta tears

Only if you was in this game

I'm crying gangsta tears

You'd feel the whirl wind blow you

I'm crying gangsta tears

Only a few can feel my pain

I'm crying gangsta tears

Only if I could show you

I'm crying gangsta tears

Only if you was in this game

I'm crying gangsta tears

You'd feel the whirl wind blow you

My daily dose is ferocious

I smoke d**e just as strong as opium

Hoping I'm close to just breaking frustration

Speaking on podiums

Facing this cold world head on dead on arrivals

Young black poor education guns crack

The gang violence done that

Night time the guns blow streets got snitches

Dealers b**ches killers and blunt smoke clubs open

Benzes jeeps dubs poking out tires

Thugs with heat pay security to let them slide in

Huh I'm at the corner drifting sipping Cognac

To' back know dat soldiers is packing no secret

Though I'm broken hearted women done

Left me hopeless in darkness

Smoking drifting in sickness

Stand by oceans watch the sun glisten

I'm soul searching I'm soul hurting

What happens when money don't make you happy

I wish this on no person

Ate at the classy places made all my fashion statements

I got no friends I'm lonely don't want no pity save it

I'm crying gangsta tears

Only a few can feel my pain

I'm crying gangsta tears

Only if I could show you

I'm crying gangsta tears

Only if you was in this game

I'm crying gangsta tears

You'd feel the whirl wind blow you

I'm crying gangsta tears

Only a few can feel my pain

I'm crying gangsta tears

Only if I could show you

I'm crying gangsta tears

Only if you was in this game

I'm crying gangsta tears

You'd feel the whirl wind blow you

Yo ride in the night time

I'm high got on my flight suit

Hood with the night sign dark colors on

Pull up the block my brother's on

I hug him and we blow trees

Sup ni**a

Scoping for police

Guns on our hip fiends want a fix stumbling tricks

Right here

We left the drug game alone

Brothers is jealous cause we still call the hood our home

What could you tell us

At funerals my eyes swell up

Damn

Look at my dog lay in the casket

Twin shotgun barrels had blasted

And rest in peace for him is all I could whisper

As I paid respect kissed his face and felt hard skin

It's part of God's plan but why so many niggaz have to die

It's crowded in this place let the priest and pastor by

Bandanna covers my eye I'm scoping through the room

I see killers and thieves mob bosses and goons

And yet I feel responsible when my ni**a's pronounced dead

Inside the hospital I wish there's something I could do but

I'm crying gangsta tears

Only a few can feel my pain

I'm crying gangsta tears

Only if I could show you

I'm crying gangsta tears

Only if you was in this game

I'm crying gangsta tears

You'd feel the whirl wind blow you

I'm crying gangsta tears

Only a few can feel my pain

I'm crying gangsta tears

Only if I could show you

I'm crying gangsta tears

Only if you was in this game

I'm crying gangsta tears

You'd feel the whirl wind blow you
