Resist the temptation This song go out to the Underground Railroad... Digital Underground... Resist the temptation of the beast You slip and loose your grip and forever fall asleep The venom is contagious, be wary of it's spell What you thought would be heaven, turns out to be hell I wonder if she knows, the devil's taking off her clothes Deep into her soul, slow, now he's in control Poppa's doing worse, a victim of his deadly curse Wouldn't be the first, to leave the ghetto in a hearse Oh and how it hurts, the children pay the biggest price Never get the chance, to grow up with a happy life Blame it on the rock, but we know that's a bunch of crap Someone from the top, supplying us with plenty crack Keep 'em in a daze, don't let them see the other way Let 'em all get paid, won't live to see another day See they never got a breath of the sunshine Now the kid's addicted and only hit it one time We're destined to be dead as a nation Don't let it come to this, resist the temptation From, pyramid top to, bottom of bowl From, whips and lock your fist and afro We, dug too deep to give up this gold Don't beat boy, and you won't be sold Running on empty, you ain't gon' go Running on empty, lead you to nowhere We fact, nobody can lie So: RE, SIST, THE, TEMPTATION Gamble for your soul with the devil You wonder how low, can you go, before you finally reach the lowest level As everybody sit and stares There's no use looking in your eyes 'cause there isn't anybody there And though it may make you wanna cry Got you stealing from your family and you don't even know why I guess you think they'll understand You feel cold, 'cause you sold your soul to the dopeman Oh now there's no turning back, in fact I's decided, that would live and die for the crack You got no friends cause you cheated 'em all Feel lonely, low, defeated and small No one was there when I took the wrong path And nobody'd care if I died in a blood bath But is this my destiny?
