Pray for Pray for Pray for Saint Louis Ave Pray for Saint Louis Ave Pray for Saint Louis Ave Pray for Saint Louis Ave 20 years ago I was posted on St. Louis Ave With the homies and bunch of go-getters In STL fitted caps, Sta-flo Girbauds, 2-ways, and Coogi sweaters Bumping 2Pac out of my silver 85 Chrysler turbocharged LeBaron Hustlaz selling pieces of pies like they work for Imo's or Sbarro Keeping the block hot controlling the area between Vandeventer and Sarah Run when you see the law all they do is harass and try to sweat us Back then they put us in the workhouse Today the workhouse is the justice center Same hellish living conditions with a pretty exterior I don't think I want to say that Welcome to Saint Louis Ave See a stop sign just ride through This the murder capital Where grandma and kids can die too Over that love of capital Think you tough and untouchable The police are quick to cap you For the right price goons will capture you Windows bars on the dollar store Bust windows for the essential Cereal, Milk, and pampers Cell phone minutes are the essentials You a new face Who sent you Roaches and butts in the ashtray By the front door is an AK The struggle is real this ain't play play Somebody Baby daddy sneaking out the back door Because the Landlord is knocking at the door Section 8, EBT, stimmies Joe, I need more Don't get a job or the feds will cut your check short The system is designed to keep you poor Poor people are profitable Guarantee payments to the landlord Tear down the Cochran and Blumeyers it's an eyesore Hope 6 funding hoping to gentrify 314 I don't think I want to say that 11 percent is the poor rate 19 percent is the murder rate That 1 out 51 shot dead No witnesses just blood shed Same as Detroit but they 1st place Or should I say that they are last place No matter which way you look at it It's simply a disgrace Boarded up house is a bando Knocking down houses is the band aid Empty lots is an investment Build a new home on section 8 To one day to be displaced By rich people that need space Now property value rising Gentrification by a new race Murders are dropping But murders are not stopping After COVID, murders gone rocket Can the new mayor stop it? The city and jail system is making too much profit So I doubt it I guess that what I want to say Pray for Saint Louis Ave Pray for Saint Louis Ave
