Rich And Poor |
| This goes out to the rich and poor |
| I stand as a broken man |
| Before we shake I shoulda let you know |
| My hand, it’s a dirty hand |
| The place I live ain’t called «Easy Street» |
| Our house is a weakened sheet |
| So this goes out to my strugglin' peeps |
| I have a dream we get out this week |
| New York, L.A. say a prayer for me |
| Orange County, Queen’s Bridge say a prayer for me |
| A.T.L., Southeast say a prayer for me |
| Manhattan, Hollywood say a prayer for me |
| Athens, Bangkok say a prayer for me |
| Queen’s City, Long Island say a prayer for me |
| Jay-ville, M.C. |
| say a prayer for me |
| say a prayer for me |
| I want to give my peace away |
| To the many that drives the Escalade |
| Cause he knows that money don’t buy a home |
| It takes a wife and kids where love is grown |
| I think I’m really tired of these washed up plans |
| To be the kind of Thug and all the war-street fam' |
| It takes a whole lot of guts to hold onto your green |
| When there are dead banks plus political swing |
| I think it’s 'bout time we get people in the House |
| Who want to write «game"on the naysayer’s mouth |
| If you got the money then you understand me partly |
| And if you’re plain broke well, then, «Welcome to the party!» |
| This goes out to the rich and poor |
| I stand as a broken man |
| Before we shake I shoulda let you know |
| My hand, it’s a dirty hand |
| The place I live ain’t called «Easy Street» |
| Our house is a weakened sheet |
| So this goes out to my strugglin' peeps |
| I have a dream we get out this week |
| New York, L.A. say a prayer for me |
| A.T.L., Southeast say a prayer for me |
| Manhattan, Hollywood say a prayer for me |
| London, Hong-Kong say a prayer for me |
| Singapore, Germany say a prayer for me |
| Mexico, Beijing say a prayer for me |
| Columbia, Sydney say a prayer for me |
| Brazil, Russia say a prayer for me |
| I want to give five-hundred cups |
| Of karma to the homeless on the block |
| Next week lets make it half a mil' |
| But they say my day dreams aren’t for real |
| Can you tell me a better way to make dreams? |
| I know we got a world full of over-rated schemes |
| I’ve watched a lot of people get bit then break |
| Stuck up in the system with locks on their gate |
| I know a lot of people who can sing this song |
| Cause I wrote this for all those who don’t belong |
| I say we form a choir and take it to the streets |
| And let the world know we gettin out this week |
| (Dream, dream, dream boy, dream) |
| (Dream, dream, dream girl, dream) |
| If I get down I’ll sing |
| If I get scared I’ll yell |
| Well make no mistake about this |
| I’m comin out of here |
| This goes out to the rich and poor |
| I stand as a broken man |
| Before we shake I shoulda let you know |
| My hand, it’s a dirty hand |
| The place I live ain’t called «Easy Street» |
| Our house is a weakened sheet |
| So this goes out to my strugglin' peeps |
| I have a dream we get out this week |
| New York, L.A. say a prayer for me |
| Orange County, Queen’s Bridge say a prayer for me |
| A.T.L., Southeast say a prayer for me |
| Manhattan, Hollywood say a prayer for me |
| Athens, Bangkok say a prayer for me |
| Queen’s City, Long Island say a prayer for me |
| Jay-ville, M.C. |
| say a prayer for me |
| say a prayer for me |
