As the World Turns

You heard?
Yeah!
Guts is on the beats
It's crazy outta here
Digga
She's a girl digga digga
Naru
Hear it out
No time
Let's get your life people

Hah! You say you love life
But life don't love you back
That's why is people in their twenties
Havin' a heart attacks (come on)
With no insurance no endurance
There's no cure for that
Problems we're facing
Can't be solved by any bureaucrat
Is more subliminal (yeah)
That's more criminal (yeah)

It's more obstacles
That keep you from your pinnacle
Look, kids used to know
That 'I have a dream' speech
All the things king preach
Now they think that they're Big Meech

Yap, I said it
The ratchet is embedded (yap)
The writings on my wall
But I guess we never read it
We comin' outta college
We're already in dead debt
Cash rules state of mind
In a world rammed by credit
It's hard to go to work
Much easier than junks

Rich dad, poor dad
Guess we never read that book
They stopped in their frisking
But they let'em off the hook
Jail makes crooks better people
Or makes people better crooks?

What's wrong with this world
That we're livin' in?
When our leaders in the streets
They'd be killing them
What happens to my rights as a citizen?
Trust at the system ain't coincidence aah!

Yo! Every crowd gather around wit' yo'
Gat line to ground
Forty four rounds sampling the sound
Black and brown now
Another mother cry
Who's gonna sing that lullaby?

Songs in t- life
Even Stevie Wonder why?
Streets were the servers cry
Wipe another brother die
Spirits, screaming from the other side
Who deh next in line?

We used to rock in Huey
Clubbing and spying enemies
Vampires three fee
A man laying soda
Myth and they buy it
To maintain attain lions

Keep the power divided, from robbers
To Rikers Island speak truth
Be mate with violence so sure
A full silence like the, death of the brothers
Who spirit don't walk beside us now

Destroy the leadership
See how lost the people get
Media, micro chips since people on every hit!
Let everyone watch, the science on this time clock
Back when hiphop was singing in on the block loud

What's wrong with this world
That we're livin' in?
When our leaders in the streets
They'd be killing them
What happens to my rights as a citizen? Ah
Trust at the system ain't coincidence

What is always a fight for my namenense?
Ah cheque the cheque just to pay the rent
What is always the problem when I mention that?
This world we livin' in, this world we livin' in!

What's up world?
This is midwife Akua Naru live and in the building
We Guts on the beats
Hip hop after all
You know what it is
Stay tuned

This world we livin' in
This world we livin' in
This world we livin' in
Look
This world we livin' in
This world we livin' in
This world we livin' in
As the world turns
