Not A Wolf Pack

from Even If Alone by Genuine

/

lyrics

Left all of the thugs behind for a better peace of mind. A calm in the storm, I could not find. From my street gang days, I have resigned. Better is my life, without all the fights. Still greater has been some sleep in the nights. Defending honor is one thing for sure. Certainly violence is immature. But that, sadly, is how we all start. The tightness of friends, that should not end. But, gang ethics be damned, and not worth it to defend. Are they worth it in the end? Defending the friend. Defending the friend. Are they worth it in the end? Are they worth it in the end? Would your conscience be clear, could you really stand behind a peer? One that makes a terrible choice and back them up with your own fucking voice? I’d rather stand alone. I’d rather stand alone. I’d rather stand alone. So alone. And, if your vision is the same as mine? Well, you say our values align? And we’re on the same side of the line? Hey! May our voices grow louder with time, and collective vision never decline. Then it’s all worth it in the end. Then it’s all worth it to be friends. It’s not a wolf pack, just to have your back? It’s not a wolf pack, just to have your back. It’s not a wolf pack, ‘cause you’ve got my back. It’s not a wolf pack, just because we have each other’s backs.

(We don't need gangs, we need each other)
