On my block, the sun blazes down Listen carefully as the beat hits the ground
On my block, people come and go Some moving fast and some moving slow
Na na na na na na na na na
On my block, the city is hot A youth of 14 has just been shot
On my block, no one will talk Silence is the power that they think they've got
Na na na na na na na na na
On my block, the city is hot So many people talking a talk
On my block, the haves and the have-nots Struggle together for the things they've got
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
