Whatever Happened To? |
| Verse One |
| Yo, my ancestors spawned the phrase «each one to teach one» |
| So I’mma just speak son while Melo make the beat run |
| And try and teach someone and try and reach them |
| Through this hip-hop and poetic street speech son |
| Whatever happened to respect and love? |
| And growing up to be the person your parents are proud of? |
| Tell me whatever happened to faith and compassion? |
| It’s like they got rationed chasing money and fashion |
| Yo whatever happened to justice and fairness? |
| It’s like they got traded for lack of social awareness |
| And whatever happened to trying making an effort? |
| Whatever happened to having morals and having ethics |
| Whatever happened to gratitude and appreciation? |
| Now we dealing with attitude and uneasy patience |
| Not only saying this to teenagers |
| I’m speaking to everyone adults of all ages |
| Whatever happened to benefit of the doubt? |
| Whatever happened to trying to straighten differences out? |
| And whatever happened to self respect? |
| And self value? |
| I know that nobody perfect |
| Yo, but we supposed to be the most intelligent |
| So how come most of these things irrelevant? |
| Yo, and when I ask yo they try to be clever |
| Cos the same way I’m asking they answer «whatever» |
| I wanna know what’s happening to people? |
| Sometimes I look around and I just don’t know |
| I wanna |
| Sometimes I look around and I just don’t know |
| Verse Two |
| Whatever happened to the feeling of guilt? |
| Whatever happened to forgiveness so the love is rebuilt? |
| Yo, whatever happened to empathy and sympathy? |
| Instead of drama that’s accompanied by a symphony |
| Whatever happened to shame and remorse? |
| Whatever happened to having discipline to enforce the good way from the bad? |
| Right way from the wrong? |
| So you can have a clean slate your whole life long |
| Whatever happened to smiling in public? |
| No heart individuals act like the government |
| Whatever happened to caring and kindness? |
| It don’t make you less macho or make you spineless |
| Whatever happened to helping people in need? |
| Yo, when was the last time we did a good deed? |
| Yo, whatever happened to grace and humility? |
| Yo, and taking care of a great responsibility? |
| Yo, whatever happened to the best of your ability? |
| And what about tact and your sensitivity? |
| Whatever happened to prudence and wisdom? |
| Observation and knowing just how to listen? |
| See we supposed to be the most intelligent |
| So how come most of these things irrelevant? |
| Yo, and when I ask yo they try to be clever |
| Cos the same way I’m asking they answer «whatever» |
| I wanna know what’s happening to people? |
| Sometimes I look around and I just don’t know |
| I wanna |
| Sometimes I look around and I just don’t know |
