The good life.
Just show casing your success.
Living great enough to be considered apart of the higher class.
With your expensive cars and condominium style house.

But in a gated community everything's not right.
And it always shows when violence comes into their lives.

Some seems shocked and amazed that they are not safe.
But, whoever said gated community protects you from anything.

Having security comes from yourself.
Not fearing the world and the people within.
Like a dog can sense your fear.
It's the same with criminals when they breaks it.

Some long for the best in life.
While many knows a gated community doesn't stop violence at all.
It just hides secrets.
Until they are exposed and comes to light.

When you think you're secured.
Some are aware that you really not sure.
Cause a gated community seems to give a false impression to some.
