| Things ain’t been perfect
|
| No need to make ‘em worse
|
| I know that you’re fed up
|
| Gotta keep your head up
|
| This time around
|
| I don’t want no trouble
|
| I can feel your struggle, yeah
|
| We can make it better
|
| You and me together
|
| This time around
|
| Oh my
|
| Oh my
|
| They don’t care how I live
|
| They don’t care how I die
|
| I can hope for the best
|
| But it’s hard for me to see progress
|
| When we slip and fall back like we slippin clocks back
|
| Are we living in the past? |
| I guess
|
| No excuse for the troops or the youth
|
| If you can’t bring change what’s the use?
|
| I expect those in a vest, badge on their chest to respect those they put in
|
| check
|
| Or at least please be professional at the most
|
| Take it slow
|
| All these funeral processionals
|
| I’m tired of that, tired of that
|
| Where I live
|
| Where I live
|
| They swear they don’t care to kill
|
| But this time around we should turn it all around
|
| Right now, right now
|
| I know that we can do this better
|
| This time around
|
| I know
|
| Do it better, yeah
|
| This time around
|
| I see a little bit of you in me
|
| A little bit of me in you
|
| Don’t let me go
|
| Don’t let me go astray
|
| I believe that we were meant to
|
| Meant to be kings and queens
|
| Do you, do you believe
|
| I need to just breathe
|
| If you could only see
|
| That we were meant to
|
| That we were meant to be kings and queens
|
| I know that we can do this better
|
| This time around
|
| I know
|
| Do it better, yeah
|
| This time around
|
| And I know it’s not you, it’s me
|
| And I know it’s not you, it’s you
|
| You can open your eyes, see what’s inside you
|
| I just believe
|
| Yes I believe
|
| Oh I believe in you and me
|
| This time around |
