|
Deep in the mind that wide opens |
|
Right here we stand alive, we live focused |
|
We open-minded, still we die hopeless |
|
With our pride broken and bullet holes covered where we stay at |
|
And everybody's playing for keeps, most people pray that |
|
We all make it up out this godforsaken place that we've been all faced with |
|
We take our chances but they all wasted |
|
And once again you see me (marching, mobbing) |
|
But how long must |
|
I continue to see my homies dodgin these marksmen |
|
The whole nine put on the line but never in mind to become the head sergeant |
|
We all targets, the votes are in, but they ain't ours |
|
We got these politicians running their game to regain power |
|
While our whole black community sours |
|
Crime rate towers, plagued by white powders |
|
And they claim to helping us to clean up our community |
|
But ain't no open opportunities, impunity |
|
Is what these demons use to regulate |
|
We keep in mind we can run but we can't hide cause the streets we walk are never safe |
|
Still all my shattered hopes and dreams remain scattered |
|
Broken into thousands of pieces, smashed and tattered |
|
But it don't matter, hipocrisy in your democracy |
|
Is stopping me, so |
|
I'm retaliating properly |
|
Theologically, society has got me pressured by the hate |
|
And Heaven knows |
|
I have faith, |
|
I have faith(I just wanna celebrate) --> |
|
Rare Earth(I just wanna celebrate) |
|
Have faith(I just wanna celebrate)(I just wanna celebrate)[ VERSE 2 ] |
|
Rudely awaken from this bad dream |
|
Thinking my conscience wants to tell me something because of these bad things(Past things) got me in the center of these mad dreams(Flashing) homicidal ( ? ) fatal slashings |
|
Now I'm asking: explain to me these visionaries |
|
Brad's seen(Past things) sad things killed him cause he had dreams(A sad scene) but all |
|
I ever wanted was my mind back |
|
Now I'm that nigga trying to find out where his mind's at |
|
The time that it took myself to figure out my mind's gone |
|
My mind crack, slide back, look at all the time gone |
|
Rewind back, comeback, understand my life gon' make these cuts that won't change |
|
But things look so strange, the plague |
|
I gots to get myself up out the frame |
|
Try to maintain the same game flipping 10 and flame |
|
JaneA damn shame, people gots to always check your background |
|
To jack now, come jack now and |
|
I'ma leave you flat down |
|
Come back now or back down, homie, this is always all day(Killer) in these dark and lonely hallways |
|
Cause all they wanna see is all us brothers boxed up in caskets |
|
With plastic bags in every bathroom getting blasted |
|
It's drastic, mama help me calm down cause your son's sick |
|
Don't watch me get gunned down for the dumb shit |
|
Then the gun click and now |
|
I see the other side of black space |
|
My last day, sad case, |
|
Heaven knows |
|
I have faith(I just wanna celebrate)(I just wanna celebrate)(I just wanna celebrate)(I just wanna celebrate)[ VERSE 3 ] |
|
New day brings about change, everybody's searching for the light |
|
The daydream schemes of living life |
|
Has got us tossed up, believing we controlling our motions |
|
Got the answer in space beside the view behind the ocean |
|
And adapting to the everyday struggle's got us stressed |
|
Cause the fact we know we here one day and could die the next |
|
You've insisted to take equipment to the solar system |
|
Trying to ensure your sole existence |
|
Now tell me: do you think that when the bang goes boom |
|
You can pack up all your things and aim for the moon? |
|
It's unlikely, but you might be equipped with with proceeds to save lives |
|
But you die when the |
|
King say die |
|
You can race it but you can't shake it, stop trying |
|
Try to hide it, cause you can't face it but you're born dying |
|
God, please forgive us cause we're human not perfect |
|
And the devil try to fronting but it's not working |
|
How can we all sit suspended in space |
|
Just spinning in place and ain't extended in faith |
|
Man, wait -(I just wanna celebrate)(I just wanna celebrate)(I just wanna celebrate)(I just wanna celebrate) |
