How Long? |
| Wake up to the same nonsense everyday |
| Kids can’t even go out and play |
| A little girl jumping rope get sniff by a stray |
| I try to figure out why we live this way |
| I give everything that I got just to make that killing stop |
| All I got is my word |
| Peeps look by when I get hurt |
| I give everything that I got just to make that killing stop |
| All I got is my word |
| Peeps look by when I get hurt |
| Damn they shooting again, somebody else dead |
| Another locked in, nobody wins |
| Welcome to the Matrix, we caught up in th mix, but Im like Morpheus, |
| cause I’m hippd to them tricks |
| Got you thinking that the negative is positive |
| Think I’m playing take a look around see how we live |
| Everyday it seems like its getting worse to me |
| They call us savages when they see us on TV |
| I’m a real dude, so I try to do what I could, so that these lil dudes don’t get |
| swallowed up in the hood |
| It’s like a 50/50 chance to not get caught by the streets |
| Cause you know it’s just designed for us to suffer defeat |
| It’s like a never ending cycle, running on a treadmill, you keep running but |
| you still standing still |
| I see it over, and over, and it over again |
| Early exist to the lord and getting locked in the pin |
| Wake up to the same nonsense everyday |
| Kids can’t even go out and play |
| A little girl jumping rope get sniff by a stray |
| I try to figure out why we live this way |
| I give everything that I got just to make that killing stop |
| All I got is my word |
| Peeps look by when I get hurt |
| I give everything that I got just to make that killing stop |
| All I got is my word |
| Peeps look by when I get hurt |
| Now I refuse to be the fool |
| This shit is like a game of pool, balls be the man, tables be the land |
| The plan, knock off as many colors as you can |
| Cause no matter what happens there’s one that always stand |
| The conqueror, destroying everything in its way |
| The same exact way they try to rule the world today |
| Put em in the stack, lift up the rack, attack game over when you knock off the |
| block |
| Now we do it to our own kind, stuck in a devils state of mind, running in |
| circles like the blind leading the blind |
| But [?} is your mind where the thoughts are produced, manifest greatness when |
| you break the chains loose |
| So who am I, original man stand up |
| She eyen I when I crack under pressure |
| So lets rise like a hammer |
| Too legit to quit, don’t fall into the pit of this devil shit |
| Wake up to the same nonsense everyday |
| Kids can’t even go out and play |
| A little girl jumping rope get sniff by a stray |
| I try to figure out why we live this way |
| I give everything that I got just to make that killing stop |
| All I got is my word |
| Peeps look by when I get hurt |
| I give everything that I got just to make that killing stop |
| All I got is my word |
| Peeps look by when I get hurt |
