| 作曲 : Lord Finesse | |
| Here we go, so pay attention to the teacher | |
| Here to preach a lesson to reach ya | |
| Brothers and sisters, nieces and nephews | |
| Think that i'm joking? well then f you | |
| Cause i'm here to put you up on a crime scoop | |
| It'll only take a minute of your time, troop | |
| So don't be a dummy or a lame brain | |
| Lord finesse is teaching so just maintain | |
| I'm not trying to diss you or even teach you | |
| But here to teach you we are all equal | |
| And show y'all in fact there's a better way | |
| Than depending on welfare or medicaid | |
| So finish up school and pass the scholar quiz | |
| And show your children what the value of a dollar is | |
| Cause many children are hard to please today | |
| Cause they're searching for some type of easy way | |
| But there's not, so who's at fault here? | |
| So think about the lesson being taught here | |
| How many brothers in the world you see today | |
| Can say that they're living the legal way? | |
| Out of 20, i could say a few of them | |
| Out of seven i could say about two of them | |
| Live correct and, show respect and | |
| Don't sweat was is owned by the next man | |
| Or front the role, being harder or tougher | |
| Or live the life of a hustler | |
| Selling that white stuff just to make a fast buck | |
| But they don't stand tough when in handcuffs | |
| So understand and comprehend and see, kid | |
| You don't wanna take a fall like he did | |
| Or she did or they did, or how others did | |
| So don't sweat the lifestyle of another kid | |
| Get yours by achieving and planning | |
| So when they fall you'll still be standing | |
| Set your goal, and know what your quest is | |
| Open your ears to this positive message | |
| "listen up, listen up" "we're all in this together" - cut 4x | |
| Now i'll scramble, because life's a gamble | |
| And like others, you go out like a candle | |
| Like my man tone who had crazy potential | |
| Before he went to the house for the mentally | |
| Disturbed, before he had crazy truck jewelery | |
| If he wasn't scrambling, you could have fooled me | |
| He was paid, to all the girls handsome | |
| He could have passed for donald trump's grandson | |
| He had what it took, the fame, the glory | |
| Yeah, let's get deep in the story | |
| Drug dealer tone had everything sewn | |
| Lots to own, he had a car with a phone | |
| A cool brother, maxing, chilling | |
| He always hung out in front of the building | |
| But in the drug game there's no time for maxing | |
| You always have others who want some action | |
| And so many was jealous of tone | |
| Cause of the things he owned and how he got known | |
| He had a few friends, or rather he thought he did | |
| Some hired help, some really dirty naughty kids | |
| Blood they shed, will kill people dead | |
| And fill them with lead at the nod of tone's head | |
| For tone, everything was going great | |
| Because him and his friends would sit and conversate | |
| He would chill, relax and just sit back | |
| His friends got unruly, but tone wasn't with that | |
| Til one day he saw them sharing it | |
| He thought to himself "it wouldn't hurt to experiment" | |
| So they passed it (inhales) he hit it | |
| There you have it, tone got addicted | |
| Like most drug stories, the end sound the same | |
| Cause everything he had went down the drain | |
| He lost everything, the money, the work | |
| The car, to tone, drugs came first | |
| The wrong thing was for tone to start that | |
| He was getting beamed up like a member of star trek | |
| The young brother went insane | |
| Forgot his name, yo that's a damn shame | |
| But someone in the street took responsibility | |
| And checked tone into a drug facility | |
| Now tone has a chance to get better | |
| And clever, and get himself together | |
| You may not like the way that i say this | |
| But drugs ain't nothing to play with | |
| So don't be pressured by what the grown say | |
| Be yourself and walk your own way | |
| "listen up, listen up" "we're all in this together" - cut 4x |
