[Verse 1:]
|
Dam, what has the world come to
|
I swear that we used to be slaves
|
And Martin Luther King had a dream
|
And I bet that he turnin' over in his grave
|
Look at how we behave, my black people
|
We don't even act equal, we act evil
|
Why, because it's easy and we see diamonds and then our favorite rappers go off and preach violence, for weak minded
|
Because we follow that shit
|
We went from leaders, to be followin' shit
|
So we bottle it in like we don't see it
|
When we know we believe it
|
So I'm hear to make you change for a reason, my black people
|
|
[Hook:]
|
Uhh, I'm just a kid from Las Vegas
|
And I ain't trynna come up like I'm racist
|
And lately I've been feelin like we act evil
|
So I had to do this for my black people
|
Time to make a change
|
[x3]
|
Sayin' it loud I'm black and I'm proud
|
And I'm about to make a change starting now
|
|
[Verse 2:]
|
I look at the generation under us
|
And I wonder how they gone do it
|
Our great grandparents fought for our rights
|
Now we got them and we sit up and abuse em
|
It's time to make a change, but I ain't God
|
Ya'll ain't gonna listen
|
Ya'll just gonna sit up and nod
|
And tell me that I'm hot and say I need a deal
|
If it come, then it come, but I'm talking about what's real
|
It takes one day
|
It takes one smile
|
Put your fist up, put the gun down
|
Nigga be a man
|
Don't do what you can for nothing
|
Cause if your gonna stand better stand for somethin'
|
Black people wanna know why they winning
|
Wanna know why we looked at so different
|
Cause we allow these little black children to raised by a fucking television
|
Are you kidding me dog
|
You teaching kids how to be fresh, but you forget to teach them how to have some respect
|
So they walk around without it
|
Never what's up
|
We need to teach these kids to be better than us
|
But we don't, so why bother
|
If we won't, than why offer
|
Life's crazy but it gets a little harder
|
We like being flashy
|
BBut we love being fathers my black people
|
|
