The song "No Mercy" by C-Loc speaks about the harsh realities of life in the ghetto. The lyrics depict the struggles faced by people living in the ghetto, where violence, mistrust, and deceit are rampant. C-Loc talks about how people wake up every day not knowing if they will survive, as they cannot trust even their family or friends. He advises people to keep their stash spot hidden from their loved ones and to fake it until they make it, as the ghetto does not offer any mercy. C-Loc also talks about the high mortality rate in the ghetto and advises people to watch their backs and be careful as most people die young.
The song highlights how the ghetto's culture is different from the rest of society, where people live by their own rules and where fake people are exposed. C-Loc also emphasizes the importance of surviving past the age of 25, as that is a sign of being an OG. He notes that people in the ghetto have to be streetwise and always be aware of their surroundings. The lyrics show how life in the ghetto is a constant struggle for survival, which is why C-Loc says there is no mercy.
