Living in this world |
| [00:05:00] |
What's happening? |
| [00:18:00] |
What's happening?check it out |
| [00:20:50] |
It's critical,the situation is pitiful |
| [00:23:50] |
Bear in mind,you gotta find somethin spiritual |
| [00:26:00] |
We never gain,cause we blame it on the system |
| [00:28:50] |
You oughta listen whether Muslim or Christian |
| [00:31:00] |
Or any other type religion or creed |
| [00:33:70] |
Cause what we need is less greed |
| [00:36:00] |
We can't continue to kill ourselves |
| [00:38:50] |
We gotta build and expand our wealth |
| [00:41:00] |
So one more time I'll design a rhyme divine |
| [00:43:70] |
To educate and elevate your mind |
| [00:46:00] |
Nowadays we gotta fight to live |
| [00:49:00] |
Human means we got a right to live |
| [00:51:00] |
Without the homicide, without the genocide |
| [00:54:00] |
Don't tell me let it slide,I'm feelin ghettofied |
| [00:57:00] |
So be a soldier of truth |
| [00:59:00] |
Protect the lives of our youth |
| [01:01:50] |
Living in this world |
| [01:06:00] |
What's happening? |
| [01:19:00] |
What's happening |
| [01:21:20] |
In the land of the free,home of the brave |
| [01:24:00] |
Too many of us reach such early graves |
| [01:27:00] |
They tell us to behave,but they don't know |
| [01:29:50] |
About the neighborhood drug flow |
| [01:31:50] |
They don't know about the drama or about the guns |
| [01:34:50] |
I ask how many politicians steal our funds |
| [01:36:80] |
And how many officers will turn up corrupt |
| [01:39:70] |
The governments don't care,they pass the buck |
| [01:42:30] |
I'm growin tired of the trickery |
| [01:44:00] |
And the misery,it's makin me kinda sick you see |
| [01:47:00] |
But now I meditate,so I can get it straight |
| [01:50:00] |
My thoughts penetrate,so I control my fate |
| [01:52:50] |
So be advised by the wise and concious one |
| [01:55:00] |
We take the easy way out,too often son |
| [01:57:40] |
We better get some kind of work ethic |
| [02:00:00] |
Realize it and correct it |
| [02:02:50] |
Living in this world |
| [02:07:00] |
What's happening? |
| [02:20:00] |
What's happening |
| [02:22:30] |
From New York to L.A. dead children lay |
| [02:25:00] |
Victims of an unfair socie-ty |
| [02:28:00] |
But for those who are blessed |
| [02:30:00] |
We must correct this mess, or dissapear into nothingness |
| [02:33:00] |
We're living in the age of doom |
| [02:35:30] |
How many teachers reach all the kids in the classroom? |
| [02:38:00] |
The beast is stalking us,but there's no stopping us |
| [02:40:80] |
As long as we maintain the strength within us |
| [02:43:40] |
Cause we're winners,descendants of the kings |
| [02:46:00] |
They try to hinder us from doin our thing |
| [02:48:00] |
So get the money,but spend it wisely |
| [02:51:00] |
I get ill when the beats hypnotize me |
| [02:53:50] |
Realize that the key |
| [02:55:80] |
Is for each,to master,his own destiny |
| [02:58:20] |
Deal with reality,and keep a tight focus |
| [03:01:00] |
Cause there's a lot we got to cope with |
| [03:03:00] |
Living in this world |
| [03:08:00] |
What's happening? |
