These ideas are nightmares for white parents
Whose worst fear is a child
with dyed hair and who likes earrings
Like whatever they say has no bearing
Its so
scary in a house that allows no swearing
To see him walking around with his headphones
blaring
Alone in his own zone, cold and he dont care
He's a problem child, what
bothers him all comes out
When he talks about his f dad walkin out
Cos he hates him so
bad that he blocks him out
But if he ever saw him again, he'd prolly knock him out
His
thoughts are whacked, he's mad so he's talkin' back
Talkin black, brainwashed from rock and
rap
He sags his pants, 2 rags and a stocking cap
His step-father hit him so he socked
him back
And broke his nose, this house is a broken home
There's no control, he just
lets his emotions go
Come on...
[Chorus:]
Sing with me, sing for the
year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
Sing with me,just for today
Maybe
tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
[Verse #2]
Entertainment is
danger, intertwine it with gansters
In the land of the killers, a sinner's mind is a sanctum
Only you're unholy, only have one homey
Only this gun, lonely, cuz don't anyone know
me
But everybody just feels like they can relate
I guess words are a motherfucker,
they can be great
Or they can be great, or even worse, they can teach hate
Its like
kids hang on every single statement we make
Like they worship us, plus all the stores ship us
platinum
Now how the f did this metamorphasis happen?
From standin' on corners and
porches just rappin'
To havin' a fortune, no more kissin' ass
But then these critics
crucify you, journalists try to burn you
Fans turn on you, attorney's all gonna turn it to
To get their hands on every dime you have
They want you to lose your mind every time
you mad
So they can try to make you out to look like a loose canon
You need to spew,
dont hesitate to produce air-guns
Thats why these prosecutors wanna convict me
Swiftly
just to get me offa these streets quickly
But all their kids been listen'n to me religiously
So i'm signing cds while police fingerprint me
They're for the judges daughter, but
his grudge is against me
If i'm such a menace, this shit doesnt make sense, Pete
It's
all political, if my music is literal and i'm a criminal,
How the fuck can i raise a little
girl?
I couldn't. i wouldn't be fit to
You're full of shit too, Guerrera, that was a
fist that hit you!
[Chorus]
[Verse #3]
They say music can
alter moods and talk to you
But can it load a gun for you and cock it too?
Well if it
can, then the next time you assault a dude
Just tell the judge it was my fault, and i'll get
sued
See what these kids do, is hear about us toting pistols
And they want to get one,
cos they think the shit's cool
Not knowin' we're really just protectin' ourselves
We're entertainers, of course this shit's affecting our sales
You ignoramus. but music is
reflection of self
We just explain it, and then we get our cheques in the mail
It's f
up ain't it, how we can come from practically nothin'
To bein' able to have any f' thing that
we wanted
It's why we sing for these kids that don't have a thing
Except for a dream
and a f rap magazine
Who post pinup pictures on their walls all day long
Idolise their
favourite rappers and know all they songs
Or for anyone who's ever been through shit in they
lives
So they sit and they cry at night, wishing they die
Till they throw on a rap
record, and they sit and they vibe
We're nothing to you, but we're the f sh in their eyes
That's why we sieze the moment, and try to freeze it and own it
Squeeze it and hold
it, 'cos we consider these minutes golden
And maybe they'll admit it when we're gone
Just let our spirits live on, through out lyrics that you hear in our songs
And we can
[Chorus]
[Chorus Without Beat]
