Verse One: Havoc As a young black teen, everyday I, deal with the pressure and mixed up is how I feel I walk the streets with a fuck you attitude And when it comes to my peoples you ain't half as rude Follow the crowd or be a leader, take your pick Now I'm smokin buddha philly blunt style A frustrated and confused young juvenile King of the project blues so I choose To take a piece of the action But my sober state of mind won't let it happen So twenty-four-seven it's the number one stresser Dealin with the peer pressure Chorus Verse Two: Prodigy Most don't understand how it is in the world of today growin up as a young black teen I used to dream, of bein a architect Easier said than done, believe me it's hard to get out of the projects, without forgettin where you came from My parents told me from day one Finish school and avoid all obstacles But my environment, makes it so impossible For instance, build a strong social life Without messing up still trying to live right Like in junior high, I used to wonder why Certain females went out with certain guys Then one day, it all dawned on me yo You gotta be down, and have it goin on see I wasn't down with the mainstream or should I say their team, now I'm gettin steamed Gotta find a way, to get accepted by my peers So now I'm sippin on beers Buyin new gear, nuthin but the best Forget Levi's strictly Polo and Guess But how would I make the cash It gotta be easy and it gotta be fast Thinkin to myself does that make me lesser Just, dealin with the peer pressure Chorus 2X Verse Three: Havoc Around my way there's a kid that most don't understand how he lives is it negative or positive He has a grade A average But when he's on the streets, with his friends, he's a savage A freshman of high school, daily attendant He never got in trouble never did he get suspended Good little Kenny who would believe He dropped out of school to start to smoke weed I saw the signs but I didn't pay attention Because he got offended everytime that I would mention The drinkin, the smokin, the low school grades And sleepin in class laid back with his black shades Nowadays you catch Kenny hangin in the hallways With his crew findin more ways To break out of school, and hit the block and get buckwild Stay out of the way of a mad child Cause he's a product of, hell Kenny never fell but he's gonna fall overall So let's take a trip to the ghetto Where Kenny got drunk and bought a burner off his man so He pulled the trigger and the suicide note right "I'm glad it's finally over and I'm finally dead And no more, do I have to feel, lesser, or deal with the peer pressure" Chorus 2X
