Verse 1 |
|
I'm tired of the hunger I see on people's faces |
|
Tired of the animosity between the races |
|
Tired of corruption in high and low places |
|
And pricks with money but no social graces |
|
Tired of being judged for the style in my hair |
|
And the music that I listen and the clothes that I wear |
|
Tired of life and death being sold as a pair |
|
and politicians who keep saying they care but |
|
Maybe hoping for a change is a dream |
|
Maybe life aint as bad as it seems |
|
But if dreaming is the best I can do i'll be dreaming my whole life through |
|
CHO |
|
What a day when war becomes a thing of the past |
|
and peace, we will have it at last |
|
and life is finally worth its cost and oh oh oh |
|
What a day when men finally live what they teach |
|
and love aint just a concept we preach |
|
and blood no longer runs in the streets |
|
oh oh oh, what a day |
|
Verse 2 |
|
Tired of leaving church feeling like I've just been robbed |
|
2 hours of rambling not much mention of God |
|
The richest man's the only one who does not have a job |
|
A bunch of righteous freaks extorting worse than the mob |
|
Tired of baby momma tired of babydaddy |
|
Chilling in the spot where the parents should be |
|
Teenage mother saying "Lea' ma bi'niz alone" |
|
In 20 years the kid could be robbing my home but |
|
I got a vision of a whole other plain |
|
Where the spiritual can flourish again |
|
I'm just waiting for the fire to rain |
|
Burn dung everything and start clean |
|
(Repeat cho) |
