| all these politics, it’s a deception
|
| falling on america’s weak
|
| they say we’re keeping ourselves down
|
| we sold out on half ass trailer park dreams
|
| so now we’re living with rednecks, racists -blk/white hatred
|
| i’m trying so hard to love my nation
|
| underfed, overbred, i just can’t get ahead
|
| it’s not about the races or the revelations
|
| people shooting up the blocks because of empty pockets
|
| fighting with the cops because of empty pockets
|
| selling what we got because of empty pockets
|
| blaming every other face for our empty pockets
|
| and i think we need a shift in direction
|
| better wake your ass out of sleep out of sleep and stop juding others
|
| who struggle just like you and me
|
| cause now we’re living with hard times, sex crimes
|
| friends are hard to find. |
| i’m trying not to lose my mind
|
| in the low-class, high-class in the middle sinking fast
|
| i know you wanna blame it on my education
|
| i’m hanging on the block because of empty pockets
|
| fighting with the coops because of empty pockets
|
| selling what i got because of empty pockets
|
| blaming every other face to our empty pockets
|
| lost without a trace because of empty pockets
|
| living in a different place because of empty pockets
|
| empty pockets
|
| empty pockets
|
| empty pockets |
