Soul Food
I'm screaming where the justice
In an room full of vultures
Ain't nobody helping us it's just us
And the culture
The schools can't teach em
They failed us as kids
In 2017 it's the same bullshit
Scared to be different nobody standing out
Teachers won't accept kids for achieving their dreams now
But quick to throw the book at em soon as they act out
Hip hop isn't just an art form
It was our only way out
Music saves lives
So Donny won't pull the gun out
On the bully that Been whooping on em when schools out
Teachers pay no attention
Cause his brother dropped out
Daddy wasn't present and his mother was strung out
Headphones in his ear the negativity drowns out
But y'all just saying we fuckin' lash out
If you took care of our communities we lived in
I probably wouldn't have a damn thing to rap bout
Artists are Journalists
Documenting what we observe
Fuck a like or a share
Fighting for the respect that we deserve
To whom it may concern
If you trying to protect the children
Pro create and allow someone else to teach them
Fundamentals of life
Not a box For you to fit in
Different for the better
The Better is for the different
The truth has been told now it's up for you to listen.
They say our music is a drug here's your prescription
In an room full of vultures
Ain't nobody helping us it's just us
And the culture
The schools can't teach em
They failed us as kids
In 2017 it's the same bullshit
Scared to be different nobody standing out
Teachers won't accept kids for achieving their dreams now
But quick to throw the book at em soon as they act out
Hip hop isn't just an art form
It was our only way out
Music saves lives
So Donny won't pull the gun out
On the bully that Been whooping on em when schools out
Teachers pay no attention
Cause his brother dropped out
Daddy wasn't present and his mother was strung out
Headphones in his ear the negativity drowns out
But y'all just saying we fuckin' lash out
If you took care of our communities we lived in
I probably wouldn't have a damn thing to rap bout

The truth has been told now it's up for you to listen.
They say our music is a drug here's your prescription
