[00:12.97] |
I got a question for you |
[00:14.34] |
When you see another human being who's being treated worse than a disease |
[00:17.95] |
On his knees, beggin' please, for egg and cheese |
[00:20.42] |
Or anything to eat do you see his test as a lesson for you |
[00:23.56] |
Or do you move on say "fuck em", ignore em |
[00:26.16] |
Can't do nothing for em, if this is true, let me count your blessings for ya |
[00:29.62] |
You could be fighting hunger, not the Gandhi type hunger strike fighting for something right |
[00:34.39] |
I mean fighting the type of hunger a little girl in the third world |
[00:37.90] |
Fights everyday 'til her stomach is nothing but something that her spine is hiding under |
[00:42.22] |
Only been alive 5 summers |
[00:42.42] |
Hunger pains, her heart beating like some live drummers |
[00:47.19] |
It's beating harder, then she drop, died |
[00:49.92] |
Momma lost a daughter cause they ain't have food and drinking water |
[00:52.87] |
God damn I shed a tear in the booth |
[00:55.20] |
Cause when I say it I'm simultaneously hearing the truth |
[00:58.22] |
But do you care? |
[00:59.38] |
I need to know if you care |
[01:05.21] |
We dying out here in the streets |
[01:07.13] |
Little kids, they got nothing to eat |
[01:09.66] |
But does anybody care? |
[01:10.43] |
(Are you there? |
[01:11.80] |
Who cares? |
[01:14.69] |
You need to see you in them out there, to care.) |
[01:22.20] |
Like Zero Dark Thirty we saw terror |
[01:24.38] |
Growing up in the hood, a small error |
[01:26.51] |
In judgement can make your parents become some pallbearers |
[01:28.90] |
For nothing, they saw Eric and he gangbanged, but they can't aim |
[01:32.76] |
So them straight shots caught Sarah for nothing, do you care what |
[01:36.56] |
Get involved, get out of your chair, stand the fuck up |
[01:39.41] |
Do something, don't lie down and do nothin |
[01:42.00] |
Five rounds, hit him in his side now |
[01:44.08] |
Blood paints the streets of the Chitown since the news woman |
[01:47.07] |
When is the truce coming? |
[01:48.14] |
Violence hit a new summit |
[01:49.51] |
And the view from it allows us to see the youth plummet |
[01:52.45] |
Gotta be sad, colostomy bags, shots got teenagers rockin' a new stomach |
[01:57.32] |
And I ain't saying that this rap was perfect |
[01:59.75] |
But I'm strapped with purpose |
[02:01.58] |
Trying to get past the surgeons in that emergency room |
[02:04.26] |
But if I don't get past the casket service |
[02:06.81] |
Just write this shit on my tomb |
[02:08.42] |
Nobody care |
[02:09.24] |
I need to know if you care |
[02:15.53] |
We dying out here in the streets |
[02:17.31] |
Little kids, they got nothing to eat |
[02:19.59] |
But does anybody care? |
[02:20.81] |
(Are you there? |
[02:23.19] |
Who cares? |
[02:25.32] |
You need to see you in them out there, to care.) |
[02:31.76] |
We dying out here in the streets |
[02:35.40] |
Little kids, they got nothing to eat |
[02:37.54] |
But does anybody care? |
[02:38.96] |
Does anybody care? |
[02:43.21] |
We dying out here in the streets |
[02:47.22] |
Little kids, they got nothing to eat |
[02:49.44] |
But does anybody care? |
[02:51.68] |
Does anybody care? |
[02:54.76] |
Put a lighter in the sky tonight, put a lighter in the sky tonight |
[03:01.11] |
Put a lighter in the sky tonight, hold a lighter up high tonight |
[03:07.42] |
Put a lighter in the sky tonight, put a lighter in the sky tonight |
[03:13.37] |
Put a lighter in the sky tonight, hold a lighter up high tonight |
