Ignorance of people purchasing diamonds and necklaces,
|
And barely able to keep the payments up on their lessons,
|
And enrolled in a class and don't know who the professor is,
|
How low people go for the dough and make a mess of things,
|
Kids are murdering other kids for the fun of it,
|
Instead of using their mind or their fist, they put a gun in it.
|
Wanna be a part of a clique, don't know who's running it,
|
Tragedy on top of tragedy you know it's killing me.
|
So many people in agony, this shouldn't have to be,
|
Too busy focusing on ourselves and not His Majesty,
|
There has to be some type of change for this day and age,
|
We gotta rearrange and flip the page,
|
Living encaged like animals and cannibals,
|
Eating each other alive just to survive the nine to five,
|
Every single day is trouble while we struggle and strive,
|
Peace of mind's so hard to find.
|
|
Chorus-
|
I wanna shout, throw my hands up and shout
|
What's this madness all about
|
All this makes me wanna shout
|
You know it makes me wanna shout
|
Throw my hands up and shout
|
What's this madness all about
|
All this makes me wanna shout, c'mon now
|
|
Problems, complications and accusations
|
Dividing the nations and races of empty faces
|
A war is taking place.
|
No substitution for restitution, the only solution for peace
|
Is increasing the height of your spirituality.
|
Masses of minds are shrouded, clouded visions
|
Deceptions and indecision, no faith or religion, how we're living.
|
The clock is ticking, the end is coming, there'll be no warning,
|
But will we live to see the dawn.
|
|
Bridge-
|
How can we preach, when all we make this world to be
|
Is a living hell torturing our minds.
|
We all must unite, to turn darkness to light,
|
And the love in our hearts will shine.
|
|
We're disconnected from love, we're disrespecting each other
|
Whatever happened to protecting each other
|
Poisoned your body and your soul for a minute of pleasure,
|
But the damage that you've done is gonna last forever.
|
Babies being born in the world already drug addicted and afflicted,
|
Family values are contradicted.
|
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust, the pressure is building and I've had enough.
|
|
