[Intro - Justina Lee Brown & MCskill ThaPreacha] | |
We gotta listen up (yeah) | |
We gotta be ready for the call (MCskill ThaPreacha) | |
Everybody wants attention (A yo Justina word up?) | |
We wanna be heard | |
No one wants to be left aside (its what we talking about) | |
Every child has something special | |
[Verse One - MCskill ThaPreacha] | |
I knew a man, his name was Mr. William | |
He had two sons and a daughter and they were triplets | |
He really wanted his sons to be doctors | |
And the daughter, he wanted her to be a lawyer | |
Typical Nigerian man, he was a dreamer | |
Always thinking about society first and how to please them | |
A selfish father, he never listened to the kids | |
Never thought about their dreams and what they could achieve | |
The first son, he had talent to be an actor | |
The second was a football player, he was a master | |
The daughter was a painter, she painted pictures with ease | |
She was way ahead of her time, she was the perfect thing | |
Then came the time the ball player had opportunity to | |
Sign for a football club in Chicago and so | |
Mr William never allowed that happen | |
He said his son had to be a doctor, that's final | |
He killed a dream, this is the part that i begin | |
To tell the parents, You! always have a rethink | |
The kids are humans, gotta respect their feelings | |
Gotta be their angels right, not their demons | |
The next day, boy was found in his room | |
Lying helpless on the floor, overdosed on a drug | |
Mr William lost a son, never forgave himself | |
Now he depressed, his whole life has never been the same | |
[Chorus - Justina Lee Brown] | |
Listen up, listen up | |
Listen to the Kids, Listen to kids (yeah, yeah, yeah) | |
(ooh ooh ooh) | |
Listen up, listen up | |
Listen to the kids, Listen to the kids (yeah, yeah, yeah) | |
'cos everybody wants attention | |
Want to be heard | |
Want to feel special | |
'cos everybody needs attention | |
Want to be heard | |
Feel something special | |
So i say | |
Listen up, listen up | |
Listen to the kids, Listen to the kids (yeah, yeah, yeah) | |
Oooh | |
Listen up, listen up | |
Listen to the kids, Listen to the kids (yeah yeah yeah) | |
[Verse Two - MCskill ThaPreacha] | |
Mrs Anna was 32 and she was pretty cool | |
Everybody loved her attitude | |
She had a daughter named Jane, she was 11 | |
Jane's daddy passed away when she was 7 | |
She got married again by the time Jane was 9 | |
Jane had a new daddy, everything was fine | |
Sad story, he was a pedophile | |
Started abusing Jane and threatened her not to tell her moms | |
But Jane couldn't keep that, she had to tell | |
Mrs Anna never believed her own daughter, what the hell? | |
Trust me, its a true story | |
Be responsible, pay attention and listen up to your kids stories | |
They get bullied at school, they get raped | |
They got bruises and scars and took it as their fate | |
One day, Anna came back from work early | |
Met her hubby doing her daughter behind the tele | |
She was screaming for help, struggling for her life | |
Anna couldn't move like corpse, she was all white | |
She grabbed the mug on the table and hit her hubby on the head | |
Just 20 seconds of bleeding, he was dead | |
Anna grabbed Jane, she wasn't breathing too well | |
She was tryna say something but shortly, she was dead | |
Mrs Anna lost her daughter to her nonchalance | |
She had to take her own life just to strike a balance | |
[Bridge - Justina Lee Brown] | |
Everybody needs attention (x3) | |
Oohhhh You gotta listen to the kids | |
Listen to the kids | |
Listen to the future | |
[Chorus - Justina Lee Brown] | |
Listen up, listen up | |
Listen to the Kids, Listen to kids (yeah, yeah, yeah) | |
(ooh ooh ooh) | |
Listen up, listen up | |
Listen to the kids, Listen to the kids (yeah, yeah, yeah) | |
'cos everybody wants attention | |
Want to be heard | |
Want to feel special | |
'cos everybody needs attention | |
Want to be heard | |
Feel something special | |
So i say | |
Listen up, listen up | |
Listen to the kids, Listen to the kids (yeah, yeah, yeah) | |
Oooh | |
Listen up, listen up | |
Listen to the kids, Listen to the kids (yeah yeah yeah) |
