Wonderful World
Man, this one takes me back man
What a world we're in, what a world
Here it goes
Alright the way the piano hits makes me want to reminisce
Back to the good old days, just kickin' it as kids
To the days at the park just full of ignorance
Wishin' we could group up, not knowing this is what we'd miss
Basketball and four square, living with such little care
Just running round wooing like my name was young Rick Flair
Dodgeball and freeze tag, Lunchables and capture the flag
Life looking easy like we got it locked up in the bag
Sandbox Dreams, yeah we all had goals
Back before social media and all them trolls
Before all the hate, and all the constant debate
Before we chose to put people down instead of see them be great
We want a wonderful world, but we don't practice what we preach
There's too much division, too much tension on the street
When you gotta be wary of everybody that you meet
Cuz you never know now what's real or just deceit
If we want real change it's gonna take a lot of effort
Too many sheep letting wolves inside the pin to bite the Sheppard
Violence and isolation make us fall for the record
We all in the same race just tryna reach the checkered
Man COME ON
You see I spit these verses out religiously like a sermon
Got the gift of intelligence but acting like we vermin
Scrounging on the ground just looking for scraps
We do whatever for a dollar then wonder why we in the traps
Listen to the words and messages that I be spittin'
I'm so tired of this hatred I am tired of division
It just multiplies our problems magnifies and in addition
We cause barriers between ourselves it's like a premonition
Cuz shit just went and hit the fan
Minuscule attention span
People caring only for themselves they fake as Peter Pan
Downfall of another land, there it goes the age of man
Focused on the wrong things wonder where we parted from the plan
We want a wonderful world, but we don't practice what we preach
There's too much division, too much tension on the street
When you gotta be wary of everybody that you meet
Cuz you never know now what's real or just deceit
If we want real change it's gonna take a lot of effort
Too many sheep letting wolves inside the pin to bite the Sheppard
Violence and isolation make us fall for the record
We all in the same race just tryna reach the checkered
Man COME ON
What a world we're in, what a world
Here it goes
Alright the way the piano hits makes me want to reminisce
Back to the good old days, just kickin' it as kids
To the days at the park just full of ignorance
Wishin' we could group up, not knowing this is what we'd miss
