Come on come on |
| [00:16.860] |
I see no changes wake up in the morning and I ask myself |
| [00:18.896] |
is life worth living should I blast myself? |
| [00:21.73] |
I'm tired of bein'poor &even worse I'm black |
| [00:23.776] |
my stomach hurts so I'm lookin'for a purse to snatch |
| [00:25.530] |
Cops give a damn about a negro |
| [00:27.881] |
pull the trigger kill a nigga he's a hero |
| [00:30.156] |
Give the crack to the kids who the hell cares |
| [00:32.261] |
one less hungry mouth on the welfare |
| [00:34.557] |
First ship 'em dope &let 'em deal the brothers |
| [00:36.420] |
give 'em guns step back watch 'em kill each other |
| [00:38.837] |
It's time to fight back that's what Huey said |
| [00:40.985] |
2shots in the dark now Huey's dead |
| [00:42.350] |
I got love for my brother but we can never go nowhere |
| [00:45.165] |
unless we share with each other |
| [00:46.628] |
We gotta start makin'changes |
| [00:48.143] |
learn to see me as a brother instead of 2distant strangers |
| [00:51.170] |
and that's how it's supposed to be |
| [00:53.475] |
How can the Devil take a brother if he's close to me? |
| [00:55.289] |
I'd love to go back to when we played as kids |
| [00:58.468] |
but things changed,and that's the way it is |
| [01:01.299]Bridge w/changing ad libs] |
|
| [01:02.488] |
Come on come on |
| [01:03.213] |
That's just the way it is |
| [01:06.633] |
Things'll never be the same |
| [01:11.343] |
That's just the way it is |
| [01:14.721] |
aww yeah |
| [01:16.388]Repeat] |
|
| [01:16.613]2] |
|
| [01:31.930] |
I see no changes all I see is racist faces |
| [01:36.800] |
misplaced hate makes disgrace to races |
| [01:38.865] |
We under I wonder what it takes to make this |
| [01:41.45] |
one better place,let's erase the wasted |
| [01:42.625] |
Take the evil out the people they'll be acting right |
| [01:45.739] |
'cause both black and white is smokin'crack tonight |
| [01:47.605] |
and only time we chill is when we kill each other |
| [01:50.74] |
it takes skill to be real,time to heal each other |
| [01:52.358] |
And although it seems heaven sent |
| [01:53.780] |
We ain't ready,to see a black President,uhh |
| [01:56.520] |
It ain't a secret don't conceal the fact |
| [01:58.200] |
the penitentiary's packed,and it's filled with blacks |
| [02:01.61] |
But some things will never change |
| [02:02.454] |
try to show another way but you stayin'in the dope game |
| [02:05.284] |
Now tell me what's a mother to do |
| [02:07.84] |
bein'real don't appeal to the brother in you |
| [02:09.524] |
You gotta operate the easy way |
| [02:11.169] |
"I made a G today"But you made it in a sleazy way |
| [02:13.819] |
sellin'crack to the kid."I gotta get paid," |
| [02:16.114] |
Well hey,well that's the way it is |
| [02:22.424]Bridge] |
|
| [02:22.624]Talking:] |
|
| [02:52.148] |
We gotta make a change... |
| [02:53.15] |
It's time for us as a people to start makin'some changes. |
| [02:56.953] |
Let's change the way we eat,let's change the way we live |
| [03:01.293] |
and let's change the way we treat each other. |
| [03:03.728] |
You see the old way wasn't working so it's on us to do |
| [03:06.228] |
what we gotta do,to survive. |
| [03:08.73]3] |
|
| [03:09.138] |
And still I see no changes can't a brother get a little peace |
| [03:11.348] |
It's war on the streets &the war in the Middle East |
| [03:13.828] |
Instead of war on poverty they got a war on drugs |
| [03:16.847] |
so the police can bother me |
| [03:18.467] |
And I ain't never did a crime I ain't have to do |
| [03:21.143] |
But now I'm back with the blacks givin'it back to you |
| [03:23.212] |
Don't let 'em jack you up,back you up, |
| [03:25.263] |
crack you up and pimp slap you up |
| [03:27.232] |
You gotta learn to hold ya own |
| [03:28.931] |
they get jealous when they see ya with ya mobile phone |
| [03:30.932] |
But tell the cops they can't touch this |
| [03:33.182] |
I don't trust this when they try to rush I bust this |
| [03:35.381] |
That's the sound of my tool you say it ain't cool |
| [03:38.332] |
my mama didn't raise no fool |
| [03:40.309] |
And as long as I stay black I gotta stay strapped |
| [03:42.429] |
&I never get to lay back |
| [03:44.510] |
'Cause I always got to worry 'bout the pay backs |
| [03:46.882] |
some buck that I roughed up way back |
| [03:49.57] |
comin'back after all these years |
| [03:50.512] |
rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat that's the way it is uhh |
| [03:55.407]Bridge 'til fade] |
