Silent Street II
Chorus
We got a lot of living to do before we die
We are happy it is time for life
Yo yo this is the Silent Street Part II
We got a lot of living to do before we die
We gonna make sure our life is great
Yo yo this is the Silent Street Part II
First Drafts of
Possible Verses---FIRST REVISIONS TODAY
What order should we
put the verses in? Do they all rhyme?
Have we said the same
thing more than once? What is missing?
Some gangstas got shot/Kids and families cleaned up
The guns were buried and sold/Some gangstas died/Nobody cried
Some gangstas turned good/stayed in the hood
Us kids will try to stay alive/So keep your cool/there are new rules
On the Silent Street Part II
Our street is now in peace/we have all been released
Gangstas turned bad cause they sad/Maybe they had hard lives- mad dads
On the Silent Street people meet/with a heart beat that is sweet
People help/no complaints/Kids play on this beautiful day
As the children grow/we make sure our life is great
Keep the gentle beat/ For the silent Street
We want to work on the silent street part II
Don’t be a thief cause you’ll never be the chief
Talk about work....
Gangsters are still people/so what you gonnna do
Their lives were not so good/Maybe they turned bad/
because they were lonely/Hungry and maybe they still mad
They did not all die and go to jail/They didn’t go anywhere is that clear
Instead of working they found another street to lurk on
The gangsters left/where to we are unsure
People say what a wonderful life/like jesus said
The silent street part II is for the living not the dead
No more broken homes no more broken streets
No drugs or loaders no nothing/The flowers are blooming/Lets........
Silent Street Part II-believe it or not/This is the best street in the west
Hate changed and life was great/people live in peace now
Just like god made/people that are just
People that are free/people that are loved/visit us you’ll see
Peaceful=let that happen so all the people can keep it that way
Peaceful-let that happen so all god bless us everyday
Kids going to school/hobos living in houses
No harm is done to the Silent Street Part II
The peace is full of justice in the air
Kids and hobos have homes and courage
Bombs/cracked and shattered lives/Friends and families hearts burned
Anger-their loved ones are still dead/Still sad-in despair and still mad
We’re loving no shoving not fighting not dying
We’re here to share in our peace loving lair
Some people fight everyday
Remember we can turn into gangsters just like our neighbors did
The gangsters went to a kind of hell/the children decided to rebel
Cops came and put some in chains/the children threw out their guns
Returned to their homes and celebrated the peace to come
The gangsters are gone/We are the masters of our life
We live together not separate this time
The people made a promise/We will do good
Kids went to school/there aint no more fools
The Silent Street Part two is here/Families are back/people are brave
No more killing /we are saved
