War by Mass Appeal Lyrics

[Verse]
If the Bronx was like a war zone ( like a war zone )
It was just a feeling of hopelessness
There was crime from like the crooked politicians
Crooked cops in the early seventies
Man crime was like the major income of the Bronx
It wasn’t like you had a choice
What ever gang ran the block you had to be apart of it
You can feel the tension building up
You can see the fights across the street
You can hear them shouting at night time
The violence was everywhere
Everyone take over one of my division
Well they uh didn't quite make it and killed
Two of their guy they tried to burn down my club and
We killed two of their guys and five of their guys
Leaned up on the side you know what they told us
We going to get you baby we going to get you
And they didn't even need a killer
