[00:00.00] These ideas are nightmares for white parents
[00:03.48] Whose worst fear is a child with dyed hair and who likes earrings
[00:06.31] Like whatever they say has no bearing
[00:09.30] It's so scary in a house that allows no swearing
[00:12.18] To see him walkin' around wit his headphones blaring
[00:15.18] Alone in his own zone cold and he don't care
[00:18.90] He's a problem child what bothers him all comes out
[00:20.87] When he talks about his fuckin' dad walkin' out
[00:22.85] 'Cuz he hates him so bad that he blocks him out
[00:26.64] 'Cuz he hates him so bad that he blocks him out
[00:28.72] But if he ever saw him again he'd prolly knock him out
[00:29.88] His thoughts are whacked he's mad so he's talkin' back
[00:31.96] Talkin' black brainwashed from rock and rap
[00:35.28] He sags his pants dew-rags and a stockin' cap
[00:38.41] His stepfather hit him so he socked him back
[00:41.47] And broke his nose this house is a broken home
[00:44.21] There's no control he just lets his emotions go-
[00:46.76] C`mon! Sing with me (Sing!) sing for the year (Sing It!)
[00:50.53] Sing for the laughter sing for the tear (C`mon!)
[00:52.59] Sing it with me just for today
[00:55.71] Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away
[00:59.42]
[01:05.19] Entertainment is changin' intertwinin' with gangstas
[01:07.87] In the land of the killers a sinner's mind is a sanctum
[01:10.54] Only ya unholy only have one homey
[01:12.80] Only this gun lonely 'cuz don't anyone know me
[01:16.54] But everybody just feels like they can relate
[01:19.47] I guess words are a motherfucka they can be great
[01:22.38] Or they can degrade or even worse they can teach hate
[01:25.27] It's like kids hang on every single statement we make
[01:27.71] Like they worship us plus all the stores ship us platinum
[01:30.67] Now how the fuck did this metamorphosis happen
[01:32.71] From standin' on corners and porches just rappin'
[01:36.34] To havin' a fortune no more kissin' ass
[01:39.28] But then these critics crucify you journalists try to burn you
[01:42.40] Fans turn on you attorneys all wanna turn at you
[01:45.67] To get their hands on every dime you have
[01:48.59] They want you to lose your mind every time you mad
[01:51.60] So they can try to make you out to look like a loose cannon
[01:54.74] Any dispute don't hesitate to produce handguns
[01:57.58] Thats why these prosecutors wanna convict me
[02:00.40] Strictly just to get me offa these streets quickly
[02:03.74] But all their kids been listen'n to me religiously
[02:06.29] So I'm signin' CDs while police fingerprint me
[02:09.21] They're for the judge's daughter but his grudge is against me
[02:12.14] If I'm such a fuckin' menace this shit doesn't make sense B
[02:15.46] It's all political if my music is literal and I'm a criminal
[02:18.51] How the FUCK can I raise a little girl
[02:23.39]
[02:24.80] I couldn't I wouldn't be fit to
[02:26.97] You're full of shit too Guerrera THAT WAS A FIST THAT HIT YOU!
[02:28.40] C`mon! Sing with me (Sing!) sing for the year (Sing It!)
[02:30.59] Sing for the laughter sing for the tear (C`mon!)
[02:32.16] Sing it with me just for today
[02:36.90] Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away
[02:41.14]
[02:44.28] They say music can alter moods and talk to you
[02:47.50] But can it load a gun for you and cock it too
[02:50.10] Well if it can then the next time you assault a dude
[02:52.93] Just tell the judge it was my fault and I'll get sued
[02:55.81] See what these kids do is hear about us totin' pistols
[02:58.51] And they wanna get one 'cuz they think the shit's cool
[03:01.45] Not knowin' we're really just protectin' ourselves
[03:04.72] We entertainas of course this shit's affectin' our sales
[03:06.75] You ignoramus but music is reflection of self
[03:09.96] We just explain it and then we get our checks in the mail
[03:13.63] It's fucked up ain't it how we can come from practically nothin'
[03:15.94] To bein' able to have any fuckin' thing that we wanted
[03:18.59] That's why we sing for these kids that don't have a thing
[03:22.10] Except for a dream and a fuckin' rap magazine
[03:25.10] Who post pin-up pictures on their walls all day long
[03:29.47] Idolize their favorite rappers and know all they songs
[03:32.25] Or for anyone who's ever been through shit in they lives
[03:35.26] So they sit and they cry at night wishin they die
[03:38.80] Till they throw on a rap record and they sit and they vibe
[03:41.14] We're nothin' to you but we the fuckin' shit in they eyes
[03:44.00] That's why we sieze the moment try to freeze it and own it
[03:47.20] Squeeze it and hold it 'cuz we consider these minutes golden
[03:49.38] And maybe they'll admit it when we're gone
[03:52.13] Just let our spirits live on through our lyrics that you hear in our songs
[03:55.33] And we can-
[03:56.21] C`mon! Sing with me (Sing!) sing for the year (Sing It!)
[03:59.19] Sing for the laughter sing for the tear (C`mon!)
[04:01.21] Sing it with me just for today
[04:03.92] Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away
[04:13.87] C`mon! Sing with me (Sing!) sing for the year (Sing It!)
[04:16.91] Sing for the laughter sing for the tear (C`mon!)
[04:19.37] Sing it with me just for today
