 Sights in the city got people cryin..  
  
 Sights in the city got people cryin..  
 Sights in the city got people dyin..  
 Sights in the city got people cryin..  
 Sights in the city got people dyin..  
 In the city..  
  
 [Guru]  
 One Friday  little Emmitt reached his limit  
 School was wack, he wasn't with it  
 His man told him, that he could make some dough  
 Deliverin packages, for Mac Money Joe  
 so he said, "Cool.. yo I need a hustle  
 Yo hook me up, plus I need a pistol or  
 a .380, a two-two or a .25  
 I'm gonna get large kid, I'm all the way live"  
 But he was sadly mistaken  
 Now he's locked up, he's doin time and he's thinkin  
  
 [Carleen Anderson]  
 Sights in the city got people cryin..  
 Sights in the city got people dyin..  
 In the city..  
  
 [Guru]  
 One Saturday, sweet Renee ran away  
 Couldn't take moms yellin, didn't wanna stay  
 Her girl told her, that she could get quick cash  
 Goin on dates, for Pimp Daddy Nash  
 She said, "Well I don't know, I gotta meet him  
 You say he's fly, mmm? I gotta see him"  
 The next thing you know she's out late nights  
 Makin dollars for Nash, wearin her skirts tight  
 Now she's a victim of the system  
 Man what happened to her dreams, and her ambition?  
  
 [Carleen Anderson]  
 Sights in the city got people cryin..  
 Sights in the city got people dyin..  
 Sights in the city got people cryin..  
 Sights in the city got people dyin..  
 In the city..  
  
 [Guru]  
 Old Mr. Fillmore, he owns a grocery store  
 It's a small little shop, the children call him Pop  
 But of course he keeps a shotgun  
 just for protection, cause he's got a little grandson  
 On Sunday, while he was there cleanin  
 He heard the front door slam, a lady screamin  
 He grabbed the shottie and walked out from the back  
 All he saw was two kids, wearin black ski masks  
 He fired, they fired, all at the same time  
 Now there's a funeral on Wednesay, a quarter to nine  
  
 [Carleen Anderson]  
 Sights in the city got people cryin..  
 Sights in the city got people dyin..  
 In the city.. in the city.. in the city..  
 In the city! In the city.. in the city..  
 In the city.. in the city.. in the city..  
 In the city! In the city!  
  
 [Guru]  
 Many sights and sounds in the city, knahmsayin?  
 People dyin, innocent victims  
 The babies ain't got no future  
 What are we gon' do? Brothers can't make a buck  
 Mmm, just some of the sights and sounds, that's all  
 Gues I'm just gonna get mine
