Change

I was born by the riverside
Where most dont make through the genocide
I was raised where they
Hang they fucking shoes on the power lines
Where it aint no rules for the dollar signs
Where they put you on the news if you dont pick a side
And you dont get to choose if you live or die
Saw my brother on the news had to wonder why
I know you see this pain falling from my eyes
And this shit so crazy
Man i think about this shit on the daily
Lord why they wanna mess with babies
Something aint right i swear this shit getting shady
And its truth in lies
You check the news a new surprise another nigga scrutinized
And i try to care i swear im to desensitized
They got a target on our youth they trynna euthanize
And you can see it if you use ya eyes
Said you can see it if you use ya mind
I was born in the projects
Where its more jay's than a stock x
I aint in the game but shit i Got next
Where it aint no referees but all us got techs
But why we use them on the ones resemble our flesh
Its a cold world
This shit a hot mess
Lord is this a test
Im trynna do my best
A monkey on my back
Trynna get this off my chest
Its like i close my eyes & still cant even rest
They taking drugs just to ease the stress
Ran outta love we gone bleed to death
You want the world but you need yourself
Can you hear me lord we need some help
