Yeah… Different blocks same fear in the air From the hood to the warzone In my hood we duck shots when the sirens scream Blue lights flash through the midnight scene Mama say stay low when the tension rise Helicopters circling the summer skies Concrete jungle where the kids grow fast Every corner got a shadow from the past We run when the bullets start to fly Tryna make it through another night alive But I seen the news from the other side Different streets but the same hard ride Over there when the sirens cry It ain't drive-bys falling from the sky Same pain in the streets tonight Different war same fight for life In my hood we hide from guns Over there the missiles come They don't always make the shelter run Sometimes they just stand where they are Same fear in a different sky While the bombs fall from the stars Kids in the alley playing ball by the light Sirens in the distance cutting through the night Over there they hear a different sound Iron thunder shaking up the ground My block got graffiti on the walls of pain Their sky got rockets falling like rain Two worlds but the story the same Just a different kind of flame From the corner store to a shattered street Every mother praying her child will eat Every father hoping the night stays calm But the sky keeps dropping firebombs Sirens scream in the city air People freeze nobody prepared In my hood we run from lead Over there rockets overhead Different war but the fear the same Everybody trying to dodge the flame Same pain in the streets tonight Different war same fight for life In my hood we hide from guns Over there the missiles come They don't always make the shelter run Sometimes they just stand where they are Same fear in a different sky While the bombs fall from the stars From the hood to Tel Aviv streets Same heartbeat different heat Same prayer every night above Just let the rain stop falling ---------------------------------©xburgermanx----------------------------------
