The Fall

[Verse 1 Sa-Roc]
Sometimes I look up at the clouds and wish for silver lining
But I know if I envision hope the boys will say I'm lying
Cause I am one lil girl who came from nothing still surviving
My counterparts have parted ways, their frames of chalk up lining
And you may look at me and doubt my struggle, but do you know how it can feel when you are screaming from out these muzzles
Saying mothers guzzle absolute, so absolutely troubled
They would get there and die trying, lips to bottle, dying to suckle, but
You say life has changed and I want to believe you
But I still ain't seen none trickle down and we watch the skies eager
Y'all don't understand 'em when they cop the millimeters
Rock them ski masks in the evening, robbin' Polly's to pay Peter
Just to reap them circumstances, there was freedom, quick with cash
Being popped from being Black with circumstantial evidence
And got jacked the leverage with except them souls' integrity
And if you're thirsty you'll drink piss in deserts heat no questions asked

[Chorus Michelle Taylor]
Ain't no love in this part of the city
Ain't no love in this part of town
Ain't no love in this part of the city
Ain't no love in this part of town

[Verse 2 Sa-Roc]
They say to keep it real like, "Girlie choose your lingo"
Imma keep it gangster, hope the truth does not offend you
We all parade the latest mall ball charades there
Nine yell' soldiers that'll hang you from out your penthouse window
Dazing off then hurra- hurrying to nowhere fast
They train killers 'fore they sprouted hair on they chest
And if you say, "it's fair," must officially object
Cause the officials marked them there before they took they first step
Yeah
Arch in the world, you can't even find it on the map
Cause your world extends no further then they will project
Controlled by sex, drugs, and holy rock and roll
As [? they got you shall know my molly ?] that you prolly lost the will to connect
So when you see that image on your LED screen
That'll remind you of [?] snipers on those cold Chicago streets
Cabrini-Green, cerului, I'm two names, one agenda
Too real for TV, we'd rather belly these rap pretenders

[Chorus - Michelle Taylor]
Ain't no love in this part of the city (Ain't no love, No no no)
Ain't no love in this part of town (Ain't no love)
Ain't no love in this part of the city (Ooh, Ain't no love)
Ain't no love in this part of town

[Verse 3 Sa-Roc]
I'm past complaining now I'm bastardizing microphones
Merc the predecessors, whoop my tracks, and leave the smoking gun
I want 'em know exactly what the dopest vocalist done
Masticating rap is then ejected from my inter stun
See I'm on set when I'm off set, the Cosmic Mother Sun
If you upset me then I'm set, might rip your mother tongue
I'm not gon' drop it low, I'm popular from droppin' flow
With subjects that subject you to astronomic vernacul-ow
Cause I refuse to keep y'all trapped where y'all were drafted to
It's not the end it's just the start of war math the troops
We taking rap back, redefining all its' attributes
My music is the word of God, no religion, jazz the truth
And there's no realer than black blasting out your temporal roof
I'm spring cleaning minds and dusting off your chakras too
I'm turnin' saucies into supernovas, watch me work
Went up, recorded, then darkness is ending, light dispersed

[Outro Michelle Taylor]
Ain't no love (Ain't no love)
In this part of the city (No no no)
Ain't no love (In this part of town)
In this part of town (Ain't no love)
Ain't no love (Ain't no love)
In this part of the city (In this part of the city)
Ain't no love (Ain't no)
In this part of town (Part of town)
Ain't no love
No no no
In this part of town
Ain't no love in this part of the city
Part of town
