War
The other day i had put my daughter time out Only a year and she is taking over my house, Yeah
And as funny as that seems
We got a generation where fathers are not seen So
(Uh oh)
We are at war
And the bullet is in my heart cause I've been there before
(Uh oh)
To my nieces and my nephews... While our brothers are in the trench theres refuge Because,
I know that people are alarmed when a city is arms and we All need rescue
If we could only elevate
to a higher land
Then, we could all have the best view
There's a war on peace, in the streets
They're strung out so the city never sleeps
They counting sheep. Waiting for the Shepard to come. There's a war, there's a war, there's a war.
There's a war, there's a war, there's a war.
Thinking back to the days they were on the brink Three little kids looking for the missing link Everyday they felt the sound and the fury
All felt lost and bound but in a hurry
So... The oldest had a talk with his mom and she said Papi ain't deceased but he's still dead
Yep, and he'd be lying if he didn't say
It didn't leave a part of him in disarray
Fast forward a decade and a half
They're self made and married it's a blessing and half ...Sometimes we all feel the war inside
And sometimes we fall but there's more inside
Isn't it true of us all
We trip and get shaken
Losing sight of the call
You see we're all in the trenches
There's a war on peace did I mention??
There's a war on peace, in the streets
They're strung out so the city never sleeps
They counting sheep. Waiting for the Shepard to come. There's a war, there's a war, there's a war.
There's a war, there's a war, there's a war.
Where all my ladies at? We gotta stand strong We gotta hold it together Cause we the back bone I know it gets hard
When days turn into nights
You gave him all you had
Now you paying the price
All alone found yourself rollin solo
Bought up all the lies lost your dreams now you don't know Now He wanna be anonymous
Now you up On Jerry Springer like tell me who the father is we blame the economy
Cause we trying to pay the bills
Fight for jobs cause we struggling
ladies hold your man down
Be a college grad love your kids Trust God he'll step in
Let's wave a white flag
I'm calling all my troops
Cause we gotta call truce
Let's move
I'm throwing up my deuces Peace to all the drama
I'll see you when the war ends
There's a war on peace in the streets
They're strung out so the city never sleeps
they count sheep waiting for the shepherd to come There's a war, there's a war, there's a war.
There's a war, there's a war, there's a war.
And as funny as that seems
