| [00:04.73] |
Yeah |
| [00:09.55] |
S'a few things that I |
| [00:16.07] |
I wanna get off my chest |
| [00:17.20] |
So I'ma get 'em off |
| [00:20.44] |
The d**gs the streets the thugs that beat they women |
| [00:23.12] |
The hate and the violence the guns the bullets that sent them |
| [00:25.61] |
The ice the jewels the fools that's killing to get them |
| [00:28.04] |
Or heist with tools strategically placed in their denim |
| [00:30.60] |
The corner the store the spirits the wine the liquor |
| [00:33.12] |
The sinning it's venom it's making society sicker |
| [00:35.69] |
The henny the 'tron the dale the goose the crown |
| [00:38.12] |
The pimps is up the h*es is usually down |
| [00:40.78] |
The kids in the hall that piss in the corner the rats |
| [00:43.33] |
The chicks be watching the watchers be watching them back |
| [00:45.82] |
The fatherless babies the mothers that live in despair |
| [00:48.40] |
The tenement builders with roaches just chilling in there |
| [00:50.86] |
The silence is never the sirens be scraping the air |
| [00:53.38] |
It kills to ignore it but it doesn't hurt you to care |
| [00:55.92] |
It hurts to ignore it but it doesn't kill you to care |
| [00:58.36] |
It kills to ignore it but do you |
| [01:02.46] |
No |
| [01:04.48] |
You have a soul |
| [01:07.60] |
And it's worth more than gold |
| [01:14.66] |
Worth more than gold |
| [01:17.36] |
Hoping you're mine |
| [01:24.82] |
Let it unfold |
| [01:29.73] |
And you will find |
| [01:34.72] |
Treasures untold |
| [01:36.95] |
That are worth more than gold |
| [01:41.01] |
If heaven is a place on earth |
| [01:42.79] |
Then there ain't no way a dollar could replace your worth |
| [01:45.25] |
I hope you know that you're priceless |
| [01:46.77] |
This life gets the point that you feel like |
| [01:48.77] |
You could point your steel right to the temple |
| [01:50.57] |
It's so simple |
| [01:51.54] |
The capitol hill is the capital killers |
| [01:53.63] |
Bills passed to bill us back for stamps and keys |
| [01:55.97] |
The system is so diseased |
| [01:57.43] |
Ain't a vaccine to cure it |
| [01:58.61] |
And if your skin like mine we gonna have to endure it |
| [02:01.28] |
Until we can birth a new nation |
| [02:03.08] |
Mature it to the level of ancient African civilizations |
| [02:05.99] |
Half of us up in this nation |
| [02:07.43] |
Now I know about the hoops we share |
| [02:09.25] |
Peace to my people who's already there |
| [02:11.16] |
It's a family affair sisters and brothers of one soul |
| [02:14.19] |
Before we hit the heavens above this world gold |
| [02:16.70] |
Before we hit the heavens above this world gold |
| [02:19.22] |
Before we hit the heavens do you |
| [02:23.30] |
Know |
| [02:25.31] |
You have a soul |
| [02:29.15] |
And it's worth more than gold |
| [02:35.50] |
Worth more than gold |
| [02:40.40] |
Just let me help you |
| [02:45.39] |
Carry your load |
| [02:48.39] |
Open your heart |
| [02:55.29] |
Share what it holds |
| [02:56.94] |
'cause it's worth more than gold |
| [03:01.96] |
The wait is up now |
| [03:03.55] |
I'm throwing it around |
| [03:04.81] |
The hate you handing out |
| [03:06.04] |
I throw it to the ground |
| [03:07.46] |
Too black too strong for this |
| [03:09.35] |
Never thought that I would sit and write a song to this |
| [03:11.86] |
But what you expect when a hunger in your stomach so strong |
| [03:14.88] |
That when you hear the radio you wanna vomit |
| [03:17.00] |
And when you look at the TV your heart plummet |
| [03:19.64] |
It shame me to see how they be showing us on it |
