| I've seen streets, we're youth | |
| Are forced to take the long way home | |
| And I've seen mothers mourn | |
| The loss of there only born | |
| Still I believe, we are given nothin' more than we can beg | |
| A vision is only blurred when life seems unfair | |
| Who am I to judge the man with the needle in his veins | |
| When he's just chasing freedom to escape the pain | |
| Of the worlds fast paced pipe dreams and shortcomings | |
| He's just trying to make do and find a way out of nothing | |
| It's like, we damned if we do and damned if we don't | |
| And it's a very thin line between respect and being broke | |
| And being one red button away from World War III | |
| Always called the minority | |
| And always, always pulled over | |
| Facing police brutality | |
| Why is every street a living hell? | |
| Probably 'cause they want us to fail | |
| Yeah, three strikes and surely back to jail | |
| Like the slave ships when they sail | |
| Years and years of civil rights chasing to pass that bill | |
| But ask yourself, people have we changed or are we standing still | |
| Down and out struggling in this concrete jungle | |
| One check away from starvation, poverty | |
| But they say being free is about speaking your mind | |
| Prophesies too much and that's where they draw the line | |
| A line as thin as the line between war and peace | |
| A line as thin as the line between west and east | |
| One button away from World War III | |
| Being called a minority | |
| And being pulled, always being pulled over | |
| And subject to brutality | |
| Why is every street like a living hell? | |
| Probably 'cause they all just want us to fail | |
| And three strikes and surely back to jail | |
| Like the slaves ship when they sail but they don't know that | |
| My people whose pains are cornered | |
| My peoples all shapes and colors | |
| My peoples got more peoples with ills | |
| That's more peoples, more siesters and brothers | |
| My people stay strong as an ox | |
| My peoples will never fail | |
| My peoples will always remain | |
| Remain with a story to tell | |
| My peoples was paints on the door | |
| My peoples all shapes and colors | |
| My peoples got more peoples with ills | |
| That's more people, more sisters and brothers | |
| My people stay strong as an ox | |
| My peoples will never fail | |
| My peoples will always remain | |
