What Would You Do

So many people, taught not to believe
With the weight of this world, how can they achieve?
Sensing our fear, displaying their pain

Walk a mile in their shoes
With nobody to turn to
Think of what you'd go through
If nobody believed in you

What would you do?
With nothing to choose?
Now what would you do?
With nothing to lose?

They were dealt the wrong hand, and everyone knows
A path was paved, that they never chose
It's all up to us, we can right this wrong

Walk a mile in their shoes
With nobody to turn to
Think of what you'd go through
If nobody believed in you

What would you do?
With nothing to lose?
Now what would you do?
With nothing to choose?

Ohh
Don't dismiss them

I wish them
A system
That would listen
Not dismiss them
I wish them
A system
That would listen
Not dismiss them

Kick off yo penny loafers
And take a walk in somebody shoes that think it's over
Like if you're homeless, bare feet on the concrete
Can't stop and smell the roses cause all you smell is defeat
Got kind of punny, nothing funny
Cause it ain't sweet
When where you eat, drink and sleep reside in the street
When violence is yo any means to gain peace
And popping on yo enemies is how it be
When daddies is locked in penitentiary
Daddy's baby dealing wit police brutality
Government cheese cause mommy don't make salary
Calling on Jesus and think he turned his back, you see
It's hard when you don't have options
When you losing hope remember those who have nothin
Cause you was blessed from the womb to the coffin
But if you forget, ask yourself this often
What would you do?

What would you do?
With nothing to lose?
Now what would you do?
With nothing to choose?

What would you do?
With nothing to lose?
So what would you do?
What would you lose?
