I was born in ChicagoI was born in Chicago 1970What my father told me,"Son, you'd better get a gun."My first friend went downWhen I was 16 years oldOh my first friend went downWhen I was 16 years oldThere's one thing I can say about that boyHe gotta goMy second friend went downWhen I was 17 years of ageOh my second friend went downWhen I was 17 years of ageThere's one thing I can say about that boyHe gotta prayOh life is a lieIf you don't know how to play the gameOh life is a lieIf you don't know how to play the gameAll my friends are goingAnd everything's gonna stay the same
