| 作词 : B., Rakim | |
| No more time to pass time 'cause these are the last rhymes, | |
| 'cause we're living in the last times... | |
| They wanna go to war, more wars to come | |
| But most of us fight more wars than one | |
| Discrimination in the racial nation | |
| While they destroy our strong foundation | |
| Nature's balance is way off balance | |
| They tip the scale, now it's no more silence | |
| The hole in the ozone layer is outta control | |
| But they wanna fight for more oil and gold | |
| Unemployment, i got laid off | |
| The streets is the last resorts to get paid off | |
| For more, more mint, no doe for rent | |
| I gotta shed blood to make a red cent | |
| Maybe i should ask the president | |
| Somebody give me the president | |
| But he don't want to hear it, it's out of the question | |
| 'cause in my section it's worse than recession | |
| So i go to a rich neighborhood and play robin hood | |
| Take from the bad and give to the good | |
| First i go to bensonhurst, steal a benz, snatch a purse | |
| Pick up my friends, that's when it gets worse | |
| 'cause i need government and they need government | |
| Alot of mint spent, now i gotta pay rent | |
| Who makes the most dead presidents in the projects | |
| You're gonna get robbed and wrecked | |
| I parked up the block to plot on a kid that made a knot | |
| Let's get him for all he got | |
| I approached him slow like i was a basehead | |
| Put the fo-fifth to his face and said | |
| You see those kids over there wit the hoods | |
| Walk to them real slow and give them the goods | |
| First the gun and the doe and crush the jumbos | |
| One false move and no one knows | |
| 'cause i got a silencer to hush the bust | |
| And i'm in a rush, so hush the fuss | |
| Plus the poison you fed will no longer spread | |
| You good as dead, i'm a fill your head wit lead | |
| That's when i pushed him into his building | |
| To murder him ...but i remember the children... | |
| Chorus: | |
| We gotta teach the children everyday, keep a song | |
| Show them the light, teach them right from wrong | |
| Make some sense so they can carry on | |
| Teach the children | |
| We gotta teach the children so that they can sing along | |
| Understand the words in this song | |
| Can't be done when we're gone, so..." | |
| Teach the children ,save the nation | |
| I see the destruction, the situation | |
| They're corrupt, and their time's up soon | |
| But they'll blow it up and prepare life on the moon | |
| Sounds like total recall | |
| But who gotta spaceship, you get it, we fall | |
| So hope for the best and expect the worst | |
| The end is near and it's u-n-i verse... | |
| The one's that interfere wit nature | |
| Labeled you limited and underrate ya, | |
| His plans over rule when he separates ya | |
| Now it's u-n-i verse, the one that hates ya | |
| So we gotta let them know, we're hip to the script | |
| Change the skit, or we're about to flip | |
| 'cause we want access to happiness | |
| Livin' the good life and much success | |
| Equal opportunity | |
| Self awareness and unity | |
| Education, the kids need a sculpture | |
| Teach them the abacus and their culture... | |
| And that'll help stop the robbing, raping and killing | |
| Poison neighborhoods are illing | |
| But they import more keys from across seas | |
| A drug disease hits the streets wit ease | |
| So keep on building.... 'cause we gotta keep building | |
| Till the answers are filled in | |
| And make sure you don't stop till then... | |
| And if you do, remember the children! |
