Let's say you're livin in the inner city |
|
You're angry young and male |
|
They say you got a pretty good chance |
|
My brother of winding up in jail |
|
Incarcreation understand ia a lucrative industry |
|
Whole towns are living on it |
|
The 21st century slavery |
|
Somewhere is there a solution |
|
If there is we've got to find it |
|
And get our heads and hearts behind it |
|
But right now I don't know what to do |
|
That's why I'm feeling blue |
|
You see a lot of guys so frustrated |
|
They just want to kick somebody's ass |
|
It's not just a racial thing these days oh yeah |
|
Privilege and class |
|
Education's a factor you can't afford to ignore |
|
It's still the best way my brother |
|
To even up the score |
