| It’s funny how I was born with no obligation to any human being
|
| But now it seems like I am owing all this money now
|
| It’s been raining for seven days
|
| I got my winter coat, my umbrella is up
|
| I step outside and yo' it’s sunny now
|
| I used to think police officers had to serve us and protect us
|
| But nowadays I’m more scared that they may gun me down
|
| And on the street these crazy drivers wanna run me down
|
| I got a show tomorrow, but my nose is runny now
|
| Sometimes I’m talking on the phone and I am deep in conversation
|
| But can tell the other person isn’t listening
|
| I hate when I go on vacation and get to my hotel my room
|
| And it is hot, but I can’t work the air conditioning
|
| Sometimes I’m laying in my bed and I am trying to fall asleep
|
| But I can never seem to get the right positioning
|
| They say I’m dope at making beats, I wanna remix every track
|
| But nowadays these record labels ain’t commissioning
|
| And I could meet a pretty woman in a club and get to talkin'
|
| Then realize the two of us ain’t got no chemistry
|
| We living in a world where you can have so much that’s working for you
|
| But you look at someone else with all this jealousy
|
| I wanna trust these politicians when they speak;
|
| But everybody knows that being untruthful’s a common tendency
|
| We gotta learn to live together, we the people of this planet
|
| We are family, to hell with this supremacy
|
| Oh no! |
| The world is kinda' cold
|
| But just hold on to everything you know when things go wrong
|
| And maybe one day you can say so long
|
| To all the days when life would play no song
|
| You gotta try your best and just hold on
|
| It’s feeling like a test when things go wrong
|
| You gotta take a breath, don’t stress so long
|
| Take cover from the world when you go home
|
| Ay' yo' it’s tiring when you are looking for a job
|
| And there are thousands advertised
|
| But when it comes to you it’s like nobody’s hiring
|
| When everything is going good and I am feeling positive
|
| But then somebody comes to mess with my environment
|
| When I am working on a paper, my computer catch a virus
|
| And I didn’t think to backup my assignment
|
| It’s like the universe is no longer aligning
|
| And everybody knows the things you think are private
|
| I check my social media; |
| I see a picture of my friends
|
| They at a party, yo' but how could they forget me?
|
| So many people will insist upon me showing them consideration
|
| When it’s plain to see they don’t respect me
|
| And yo' I’m trying to figure out the reason
|
| I worry about so many things, which I know really don’t affect me
|
| And I’m still going in my phone and picking out numbers to call
|
| Of all the people who so easily neglect me
|
| I wanna' tell you what I really think about you
|
| But inside I’m just afraid that I am gonna' be rejected
|
| I have a different point of view and there’s nothing written in stone
|
| That I should have to see the world from your perspective
|
| Now I am waiting twenty minutes on the phone
|
| And then somebody it pick up, but suddenly I’m disconnected
|
| Sometimes I have to put my hand up in the air
|
| And draw a line around myself, so I can feel like I’m protected
|
| Oh no! |
| The world is kinda' cold
|
| But just hold on to everything you know when things go wrong
|
| And maybe one day you can say so long
|
| To all the days when life would play no song
|
| You gotta try your best and just hold on
|
| It’s feeling like a test when things go wrong
|
| You gotta take a breath, don’t stress so long
|
| Take cover from the world when you go home |
