Teach The Children |
| No more time to pass time 'cause these are the last rhymes, |
| 'Cause we’re living in the last times… |
| They wanna go to war, more wars to come |
| But most of us fight more wars than one |
| Discrimination in the racial nation |
| While they destroy our strong foundation |
| Nature’s balance is way off balance |
| They tip the scale, now it’s no more silence |
| The hole in the ozone layer is outta control |
| But they wanna fight for more oil and gold |
| Unemployment, I got laid off |
| The streets is the last resorts to get paid off |
| For more, more mint, no doe for rent |
| I gotta shed blood to make a red cent |
| Maybe I should ask the president |
| Somebody give me the president |
| But he don’t want to hear it, it’s out of the question |
| 'Cause in my section it’s worse than recession |
| So I go to a rich neighborhood and play Robin Hood |
| Take from the bad and give to the good |
| First I go to Bensonhurst, steal a Benz, snatch a purse |
| Pick up my friends, that’s when it gets worse |
| 'Cause I need government and they need government |
| Alot of mint spent, now I gotta pay rent |
| Who makes the most dead presidents in the projects |
| You’re gonna get robbed and wrecked |
| I parked up the block to plot on a kid that made a knot |
| Let’s get him for all he got |
| I approached him slow like I was a basehead |
| Put the fo-fifth to his face and said |
| You see those kids over there wit the hoods |
| Walk to them real slow and give them the goods |
| First the gun and the doe and crush the jumbos |
| One false move and no one knows |
| 'Cause I got a silencer to hush the bust |
| And I’m in a rush, so hush the fuss |
| Plus the poison you fed will no longer spread |
| You good as dead, I’m a fill your head wit lead |
| That’s when I pushed him into his building |
| To murder him… but I remember the children… |
| We gotta teach the children everyday, keep a song |
| Show them the light, teach them right from wrong |
| Make some sense so they can carry on Teach the children |
| We gotta teach the children so that they can sing along |
| Understand the words in this song |
| Can’t be done when we’re gone, so… |
| Teach the children, save the nation |
| I see the destruction, the situation |
| They’re corrupt, and their time’s up soon |
| But they’ll blow it up and prepare life on the moon |
| Sounds like Total Recall |
| But who gotta spaceship, you get it, we fall |
| So hope for the best and expect the worst |
| The end is near and it’s U-N-I verse… |
| The one’s that interfere wit nature |
| Labeled you limited and underrate ya, |
| His plans over rule when he separates ya Now it’s U-N-I verse, the one that hates ya So we gotta let them know, we’re hip to the script |
| Change the skit, or we’re about to flip |
| 'Cause we want access to happiness |
| Livin’the good life and much success |
| Equal opportunity |
| Self awareness and unity |
| Education, the kids need a sculpture |
| Teach them the abacus and their culture… |
| And that’ll help stop the robbing, raping and killing |
| Poison neighborhoods are illing |
| But they import more keys from across seas |
| A drug disease hits the streets wit ease |
| So keep on building… 'cause we gotta keep building |
| Till the answers are filled in And make sure you don’t stop till then… |
| And if you do, remember the children! |
